Morning on Locke Pond

There are a lot of these shots in the challenge and some really hit the mark and others whilst very nice don't really come with the WOW factor.

Unfortunately yours is in the latter category for me and I think this is due to the very straight lines across the image, the two signs on the left are a bit distracting and that forground item is a bit distracting IMHO.

They are some wonderful autumnal colours though and must have been a sight to behold

What the?.....I HATE YOU!

Heh original take on the challenge that I think many will be able to associate with. My main points of CC would be that there is maybe slightly too much blur on the hand, and the image is overall quite dark. Actually it could probably do with a slightly stronger composition with more cropped from the right.

The Soulwell

Quite a clever shot, I am not sure if that is a ray of light shooting in to the glass with smoke bellowing out or whether it is someone blowing a very fine smoke trail in to the glass, my main gripe with the shot is the lighting is so harsh at the base of the glass bowl and that really detracts from an otherwise fine shot.

Our Topsy Turvy Worlds

Looks to have a heavy yellow cast to the whole image, the lighting is very flat and whatever it is you are holding in your left hand is very distracting.

You're upside down! No, you're upside down! No, you're...

I am assuming you have done a double exposure which is quite effective, I like the way the lighting effectively falls on the same side of the face and at first I actually thought this was a copy / paste / rotate but the lighting is just different enough to prove that wrong :)

Not sure how this will score, it must have been pretty hard to pull off this well and it is artistic, but I wonder if some people will think it a DQ for the reasons I mention above...

Nice idea

Pretty well lit especially the vase and rose although it's a bit of a shame about the window reflection right over the rose anywhere else and it wouldn't have caused quite as much distraction. The ring could do with a bit more light to help emphasise it as it is a bit lost in the whole picture.

Good shot though and I would be surprised if this doesn't make the top 20

Upside Down

The image is upside down I get that, but that is all I can see in the shot that is, I would really have liked this shot a lot more had you attempted to make it look like the model was upside down in the room, ie the lamp positioned above the picture pointing downwards as if on a table (where I suspect it is now but pointing the wrong way), I think had you taken this idea further you could have had a really great shot.

Upside Down

Quite abstract which is not a bad thing in itself but without knowing what it is it's difficult to see if it actually fits the challenge and is truly upside down.

Would be a difficult shot to score if I were voting :)

Quite clever this and very artistic I can appreciate the work that has gone in to making this shot, but for me there just needed to be more light in the real eye to really make it pop.

Great vision though

Go LadyT :)

Dramatic shot with loads of detail, I still think the other one was a better scoring shot but this one was much more unique and dramatic so I respect your choice :)
