In the garden

This is one of the loveliest flower shots I have seen on the sight. The soft focus and lack of color give it an elegant feel. The lighting brings out texture of the petals and adds a nice depth to the center. If I could vote, you'd have a 10 from me.

This is hysterical! I can't vote so I was just glancing through the thumbnails and saw this one just staring back at me. I had to laugh. Good job on the photo, even better on the fun-factor. Thanks for the giggle.

Doesn't get more contrasting that this! Nice shot. Perfectly placed on the page, nice composition and definitely within the definition of the challenge. Good luck.

Fantastic shot! I hope this places high in the scoring. Not only artisitc, but moving.

I'm not a big fan of pet-shots, but this one is really cute and thematically perfect for this challenge. I wonder how it would have looked had you put him on a staged backdrop rather than the cement so there is only the texture of his fur adding to the contrast of the shadow. In any event, great shot. If I could vote, I'd give you high marks just for making me smile.

This is such an unusual interpretation of the challenge. Very nicely executed. The framing is just a TAD off center, but other than that I think it is very artistic. I can't give you a vote I'm afraid, but I'd have given you a 10 for sure.

Whenever I look at the gallery, my eye keeps being drawn to this particular thumbnail. It really stands out in an eerie kind of way. I can't vote but if I could, I'd have to give you a 9 or 10...what the heck, make it a 10.

I can't vote on this challenge, but if I could, this would be a 10 from me. Beautiful framing, composition and theme. I don't see a single thing about it I don't like. Nicely done.

It's a beautiful shot of a sunrise, but the wheels, rather than being the focal point (as they should be for this challenge), sort of get lost in the shadows.
