Like the band name, love the album title. The set-up and lighting are well done. The photo could be a bit sharper. Great job on the text.

Very good band name. The photo works really well, although it could use some perspective repair. I really dislike the way the text looks.

I really dislike the band name. The photo is interesting. The water capture is very good. I like the positioning of the text and the way it appears to be emerging from under water. The hot spots on the dolphins detract a bit.

Very good. Original name and the photo really works as an album cover. I don't think the DPC at the top was necessary. I like the font you chose for the bottom text.

Interesting photo. I'm not crazy about the band name. It seems shoehorned to fit the photo. IMO, the band name should have determined the photo content, rather than the other way around. I could be wrong in my assumption--this is just how it seems to me. The text is decent but I think "hoodoo" should not be resting right on the edge of the frame.

This seems a bit shoehorned into the challenge. The lack of text hurts, IMO. It doesn't really feel like an album cover. The photo is good.

I really liked this a lot until I scrolled down to the bottom and saw the corny album title and rather cheesy looking text. That ruins it a bit for me. Still, it is a great photo and the band name is good. The text at the top works great.

This one doesn't work too well for me as a name or album cover. It seems like the band name was shoehorned to fit a photo that was taken during the time frame. You were probably unaware until entering, that text could be added for this one. That probably would have helped convince me this was an album cover. I almost missed that too, but I had a couple of hours left to work on it. I sympathise because this is probably hurting you in the scores.

The photo is quite nice. The composition is great and the blurring water is very effective. It's all over a bit contrasty, especially the rocks on the right side of the frame. The middle values are a bit dark and there is very little detail in the shadow areas. This is a shot that could be heightened dramatically with some highlight dodging.

This is excellent! I think I can guess who's this is but I won't say until the voting is over. The two different fonts are great! It shows really good graphic design sensibility. The photo is great and manages to be kind of dark without being creepy. Interesting. The name is interesting and original. The title is excellent! Great job toning down the highlights on the plastic.

Very good! I'm not crazy about the font you chose but it all fits together pretty well and the name is original. The prism area is a little blown out in the lightest part but for an album cover, it's not really detrimental.
