Hot, Hot, Hot

Looks pretty hot to me! Focus seems to be on the upper portion of the photo (why not the whole?). Color seems about right. Interest - I thought this might be an interesting shot too, but decided against it (low to moderate). The drip tray seems nicely clean (a second reason why I didn't go this direction, I'd have to clean the tray!). 6 Rob the Swash

A Cat's Life

I love cats and on the positive side - I don't think I'ver ever seen a photo of just the back half (original), but there's a reason for that, much less to look at. The glare on the white fur is harsh. Focus on the feet is pretty good and the color of it's feet pads is nicely pink. 6 Swash

Good emotion conveyed with the darkness of this image, good detail, too. But the overall lighting doesn't seem great, the glare off the statue is everywhere and just a bit too heavy for an accent, while a good portion of the statue isn't lite at all. Possible suggestion - softer lighting from two sides might help both issues. On the whole, I like it. 6 Swash

Fun shot! Great timing! The female's look is to die for. I gave this an 7. The time reference was a bit of a stretch for me, but a killer funny shot!

Sue, this is a well taken shot, but a tad low on WOW value. Hint: watch for overhead wires, too. I gave it a 7, so it wasn't a bad shot.

Cheers

Very colorful! Great focus. Cool effect. (Makes me wonder what the background is - I hope you gave us a detailed description, please, please - mental note - look this up after the challenge!!!) Very strong 9. Swash

That's a lot of quarters! Focus seems pretty good. Image is overly dark, even of this dark subject (title, which seems a bit of a reach). Suggestion - crop the bottom (green) off. 6 Swash

Neat bird! The flash overexposed the white feathers very heavily (not to mention how unkind it is to flash the bird's eye). Focus is very good. The yellow feathers came across very nicely. Good details in the non-white areas. Small nit pick - the background is -almost- black. 6 Swash
