Wow. I am having a hard time deciding what I think about this. First of all, I love the grain. I think its application here was warranted. Im not sure if I like the shot-through-the-glass look, but without it you'd have missed the lines. Of course I am not sure that I don't like it either. I think overall, its a great photo. It made me stop and study it and really think about what comprises the image. Good job. 9

Neat. Its a bit disorienting, but I suffer from vertigo anyway :))

Nice bokeh here. Great composition. Since the foreground is set against an out of focus background, it might have been nice to the flower on the left in focus a bit more.

Neat. I think it gives a sense of emotion and place.

Lines that Show Age.......

Neat way to show depth. But overall, it is a bit uninteresting. It doesnt engage me emotionally at all. Maybe you could see what it looks like in B&W with a higher contrast. That sometimes really brings out the patterns of wood grain in a dramatic way.

Nice abstract. There is some noise in the pic, however, and I think in this particular photo it is a bit distracting.

Very simple, yet moving. I love the B&W here. It was done perfectly. Great job!

You got a 9 from me. I sure thought this would do better. The perspective, lighting, and colors are just magic.

I had to come back and commment again. It was really odd that I just re-watched The Birds just before the challenge started. I hope you intended the Bodega Bay connection.
