Streetside. After a Good Meal.

Nice lighting. Nice background blur but enough detail to give context to the environment. Great entry.

I like this "street portrait" in that you included a larger point of view to give context of the environment. Lighting looks good. You caught the different elements in this pic (great smile of the subject; the vender feeding the dog) to make this a very fun portrait to look at. One of my top picks.

This is great, I thought it was a jug of moonshine, and the after affects of too much... (Love the LB)

Great duplicity. Some of us love this sort of stuff. Nice catch.

I can easily see this as artwork hanging in a coffee shop. Nice.

"Their Future Looks Bright"

Nice B&W and high key processing. I like the composition of the horse and rider walking away and toward the light for their turn. This is a nice story telling image.

Love Cannon Beach. Very interesting sunset shot with the star streaks. The sunset itself is nicely composed between the two outcroppings and reflection in the water and sand. The star streaks adds another dimension to the image. Must tell in your notes how you achieved this. Best of luck in the voting.

Puddle Navigation

I like this stylized processing (B&W/high key). I think the composition works well in placing the girl in a third of the frame but including the entire road and puddle showing the expanse of the puddle. I like the inclusion of the hand/arm of the father that conveys the watchful eye of the parent but not having him in the frame which may have taken away from the child. I like the capture of the concentration of the girl on her next step. Wonderful story telling image. Deserves a 10.
