Nice curved lines, leading the eye around the photo. Slight tilt to the horizon. Hard to tell for sure but the DOF seems not to have infinity in focus.

Nice composition. Perhpas a tad over-processed.

Spiderman didn't mind the hat and tinsel, but he drew the line at the discoball

Congats on getting the Yospiff award. Loved the disco ball!

The shoehorn graphic represents his signature wacky humor in using shoehorns in his submissions. It is not any statement that your photo was a shoehorn, but rather a compliment on your humerous take on the challenge.

Holiday bokeh with shoehorn

Way to take one for the team to make a really good point about some of the crazy borders that have been popping up.

I think it is time for someone to start handing out "Border Lowered Your Score" Awards for those that ruin a good photo with a poor border.

"It does present a dilemma, though - how to keep what you want when it can appear so differently on different monitors?"

If you figure this one out let me know. I have one in voting now that on a calibrated monitor has a beautiful bit of detail in a dark area. I submitted it knowing that on crappy LCDs and laptops voters would just see a boring dark area. Making it brighter would have ruined the rest of the photo, so I lived with it. The only solution is different subject matter or forcing voters to get good monitors :(

Really nice. Great silhouette. The blobly highlight of the sun detracts. I wonder what it would look like with with the sun cloned out.

Nice shot. Sky really adds to the shot. I think the negative space on the lower left detracts from the shot.

Nice lighting and compostition. Subject ends up being a little static.
