A 6 from me. I apologize. I underappreciated this on one viewing. It's a work of fine art.

A 6 from me. This feels grossly misunderstood, though, in the overall voting. This is one of those shots that grows on me with each revisit. As a study in color and as a portrait of serendipitous inspiration, this is sneakily good.

One of my highest scores. It's rare for me to feel close enough to discern the makeup on the pores of a subject's face this clearly. Personally, I would have probably cropped in from the left tighter, just about the left side of her earring. But that didn't affect my score in the least. I hope to someday get this level of work in my portfolio.

Exceptional work. Not just as a piece of photography -- much harder to execute than it appears, I'm sure -- but as a piece of whimsical visual storytelling.

First things first: AMAZING capture and pitch-perfect processing. No notes.

Secondly: This is begging for a speech balloon. I just can't decide what the text should be...

The Interlude

I'm going to admit that the highlights on this one were a little harsh for me...but I sincerely LOVE this composition. The seeing here is spectacularly photographic--simultaneously conveying a sense of enlarged importance for the human subject and of diminished scope of that same subject in the context of the wider world. That's visually profound.

I would love to take an architectural photo walk to some of your environs, Barbara. You seem to be surrounded by incredible settings!
