See Rock City

I've seen Rock City ... interesting place. Lots of opportunities to get closer to your subject or really go for some detail shots. This one looks too much like a quick travel snapshot that lacks any special interest. Difficult to make a good photo from this vantage, with the strong light above and the waterfall in shadows. 4

Nice colors and sharpness, but nothing that really makes this one pop. 5

out of water

Nice exposure and idea, but hope you were quick about it. Focus is soft on the tail -- would have liked to see it sharp throughout.

Looks like a quick travel snapshot -- no clear subject (too far from the statute if that was the point), and no strong tie to the challenge. 4

Interesting subjec,t but the tonal range is off -- shadows lack detail and some of the highlights in the fire are blown out.

Composure is Everything

Ordinary snapshot here ... nothing unique or creative to grab my attention here. Doesn't have the feel of an image that had a lot of thought put into it either beforehand, or while out trying to capture the subject. 4

Nice idea, but without seeing anything of his face it lacks interest. Even a profile in shadow would have helped. My original reaction was a 4, but bumping to a 5.

Nothing here that meets the challenge in any way for me. The picture is kind of interesting though. Coming a bit lower to include her entire necklace, even if you cut off a bit of the top of her head, might have been better.

Interesting idea, but the picture doesn't do much for me. Originally a 4, I'll bump you to a 5 for creativity.

Not a strong enough tie to the challenge for me, but a nice enough picture of a happy guy playing in the water. 4
