Life Provides a Mentor at Every Step

A very interesting image. However I feel it is very contrained by the tight drop. I feel this image needed more negative space all around it to make it feel complete, rather than the tight crop you have applied on all sides. I also find it interesting that you have chosen to process this to Blacka nd White. I feel this image really needed the splash of colour, rather than the grey tones is currently provides.

Stunning........
The words are brilliant, fit both the challenge and the photograph completely.......
The image is perfect for a motivational poster. Compliments the words exactly, well executed and the type of photo that is often seen on these.

A great submission

A great submission, in the true motivational poster style, and fitting of being a poster. The image is interesting, without being overpowering, colourful without needing to be studied. Exactly what these posters should be. The choice of text colour and border is spot on, the size of text, the fonts, everything for this works and looks professional. The placement of the person on the line of third is very good and helps this image work. An excellent submission

Nice, a great picture with a humour aspect to it as well. The entire shot is well composed and works really well.
Not sure about the colour of the writing and border. I feel it should have been the yellow from the sign, whereas this is a different yellow. The brighter yellow would have tied it in a lot better.

A nice photo, but it seems to me like I am missing the rest of the scene. I feel I need more from this, on both sides, and even top and bottom. I just seem to have a small piece of a great location, yet I am restricted in what I can see.......

A very wierd looking animal.......The colours in this are uninspiring, and could have been vastly improved in post processing, which could have made this a much stronger submission

Digital Predictable Contest

A political statement in a motivational challenge. I feel this would have been much better suited in the de-motivational challenge due to the level of sarcasm applied...........The overall presentation is good, it lacks a really strong photo element though......

A greater depth of field, having the entire flower in focus, I feel would have been a ctronger overall image. As it is, too much of the overall image is out of focus,..........

It is.......the combination of colours you have used for this works very well, as the use of both the green and red highlight these in the photo. I think the depth of field for the photo was too shallow, as I feel that having the right hand side of the plant blurred detracts from the overall image. Hvaing this photo all crisp and clear I feel would have made a stronger statement

Forward Thinking

Humour, great.......I like the ideaof this, and feel that it works to a point. Some extra attention to detail could have made this even stronger. A border around the photo (small black and then the blue grey) and having the writing in the blue/grey of the photo. A different font also would have helped. these minor changes would have made a much more professional look to the submission.
