I really loved this shot. Ranked it a 9. I think selective desat was perfect for this image. It emphasizes the medals. Nicely done.

I really liked this shot a bunch. Looks like it came right out of a recruiting poster. Nice sharp colors and details. Excellent work. Go Navy!

This means you were out at the same time ClubJuggle and I were. Drop me a line and we can go shooting some time. :) This is a very nicely done shot of the Wall. Getting the reflection in the right place is harder than people think, so I appreciate the effort you put into this one. :) Nice work.

Congrats on your first ribbon! Very nice example of a candid portrait. The crop is a bit tight, but I figure there were probably some background elements that you were trying to eliminate. :) I'd love to know this guy's story. Well done!

I liked this shot when you first showed it to me. My only 10 of the challenge. Perfect DOF, nice sharp focus, and black and white was the perfect choice for the shot. This just proves that you and I need to go shooting more often. ;) Nice job pal!

This was my only 10 of the whole challenge. I loved the soft colors and the way the image flowed together. For me it fit the concept of impressionism brilliantly. I gave folks the BOD on how much post processing was done in this challenge. Glad that I did. This is a great example of how to use a ND filter to your advantage. Awesome job. 10

Kitty! And I thought Tico was the only cat I knew who would do this? Does this handsome beast also sit in the sink while the water runs? :) This is a stronger shot without the mirror in it. I'd also move the angle a tad so that there is more seperation between the fawcett and kitty.

Very subtle color, nice sharpness and clarity. It's great to have a model who will sit long enough for you. :)

Waaaah! I want my NHL back. Excellent DOF. It's got a bit of a vintatge feel to it. Probably due to the worn laces on the skates. 7
