Go tell it to the mountain ~ James Baldwinby NeatComment: Not really a tie to the book, other than the title. Quite a nice shot otherwise. The layered blues and impending storm work well together, and play on the obvious cold. Would have rated it higher in a different challenge. 6 |

Magic Mountain by Thomas Mann by MargaretNetComment: Pretty spectacular! I really like he motion in the blowing snow and clouds, and deep contrast in the sky. Having only read the synopsis, the tie to the story is not great but it is there. 8 |

Blindness - José Saramagoby Alex_PetriniComment: Lovely shot, and the tie to the story is strong. The model walking in the rain seemingly blind fits well. The tones are nice and I'm glad it's black and white. Not sure I'm ready to call it a classic, but I didn't mark it down for that. 7 |

I Robot, by Isaac Asimovby sfaliceComment: A very nice shot, but the tie to the book is a reach. The sundown reds are quite nice, and the scope as the foreground element works well. Would have scored it higher in a different challenge. 6 |

"Their Eyes Were Watching God" by Zora Neale Hurston by rodfulkComment: I'm not sure what the tie to the story is with this shot. I have only read the synopsis, so I may be missing something. I like the grey tones, but would like a little stronger blacks and whites. The missing left portion of the statue distracts some as well. 5 |

The Bell Jarby grahamgatorComment: An interesting shot that I don't feel ties to the story well. I like the darker tones, and the curious nature of the prop. Would like to see it more centered, and maybe framed better by the plants if possible. 6 |

The Snows of Kilimanjaro, by Ernest Hemingwayby hahn23Comment: Quite a nice image, but lacking in it's tie to the story. Feels like just a play on the title, and then a loose one as it's clearly not Africa. Would have scored it higher in a different challenge. 6 |

The Last Leafby dahlinComment: A very fitting image for the story, or vice versa. The yellow leaf contrasts nicely against the damp soil (from the storm that knocked the last leaf off?) and stones. Would have maybe moved the pine needles, but it doesn't really distract. 7 |

The Water Babies ~ Charles Kingsleyby Ja-9Comment: I like the color and the motion here. The framing is a little weird, but that may have been unavoidable. I have not read the book, only the synopsis, so I am unsure of the water babies are represented as fish or something else entirely. 6 |

A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Manby namComment: Frankly I'm surprised this wasn't done more. I for the most part want more ties to the story, but this is a little different. It still loosely reflects the story, but is a play on the art commonly associated with this book. For that I can forgive the beard, but the round glasses are a crucial part of that art. 6 |
