Very well done. Every time I have tried something like this I failed miserably, so I know the difficulty in getting this right.

It's unfortunate that high ISO is causing the noise in the upper right. That is really distracting me away from the beautiful silhouette.

It's so difficult to get these moon photos during the clouds. To our eyes it looks amazing. The result from a camera is always uninspiring (unless you make a composite).

Obvious tripod use: Medium. I'm certain you did use a tripod, but the obvious need isn't fully there. The reason is the clouds are fairly static looking instead of showing movement across the area.

Aliens do exist! This is proof! :) I really appreciate the creativity.

Obvious tripod use: Medium-low. I can see movement in the clouds/fog, but I'm really not seeing enough to make the tripod requirement obvious.

Very cool photo with great use of sepia toning.

Obvious tripod use: Low. looks like there might be an ever so slight blur in the leaves in the upper left, but that's not enough to say that this shot required a tripod to me. I'm not saying that you didn't use one, just that the use of a tripod is far from obvious.

Nice street photography with a lot of colors, although I find myself wondering what black and white would look like.

Obvious tripod use: Low to None. Yes, I do see the slight hand movement, but that's not nearly enough to indicate that this required a tripod to be taken.

Cool view. I like how this is framed so that we feel in the middle of the photo.

Obvious tripod use: Very low. I only see very very slight blurring in the water. With a nice long exposure the water could have had a milky smooth feel that would have indicated the need for a tripod much better.

Very very cute idea. I may just have to steal that idea when my kid is born.

Very cool cloud formations. The highlights are a bit blown out, which in my mind is hurting the photo somewhat.

Obvious tripod use: For me, it's low. The lighting for this photo with the silhouettes lends itself to fast-ish shutter speeds. I do see the blur in the movement of the foreground plant, but I'm not so sure that people who don't study the photo will see that.
