sweet dreams, my pretty-pretty

The brightness of this shot really threw me at first. The sun reflecting off the sculpture be a bit blinding. The title made me think and look at it a couple of times and I'm still a little lost but sadly that is nothing new :) The reflection of the building on the left is distracting and if you could have come at a slightly different angle to get just the sculpture and the reflection of the sky on the building behind it I would have scored much higher on this one. Also, just a bit of soft focus to inspire a dream, just a bit to sharp for me ;)

EEEEEKKKKKK!!!!! I'm hoping this is a reflection of your camera flipped over so the lettering is right! The shot is done well, the red in the shot throws me off at first but in a nightmare I'm guessing red for blood would be the predominant color, make the water look bloodied as if the camera was bleeding, very good. The darkness on the left side is a bit distracting, if the lighting was a bit more balanced this would have gotten a 9 or 10 from me.

First day at work

Hehehe, just no pants or completely nude? :) This can be a nightmare for sure, a very bad dream that I'm sure we have all had, mine was to go to school in my pajamas which I accidently did one day (forgot to change my top!). The shot is well done, the cropping is good, the cut off at the knees is very nice, leaves one looking up for more. The background is a bit wanting for me, too stark, maybe if it was an office setting, rug, with a chair behind him it would be more appealing overall.

I have pulled this image up about 4 times and I'm guessing this is a dream for the parents, KILL THE TELETUBBY and nightmare for them? If the stocking over the head was black, like the hangman's cover and the Teletubby was larger or the perspective was slightly different I would have scored much higher on this one.

Harvest dream on foggy morning

I had to look at this image several times before I realized those are bee hives, right? Ahhhhhh, I get the dream now! The fog is a great effect in adding to the dreamlike state but the sun is actually a bit distracting in this one. Maybe if it was more to the left, half cropped it would seem a little less distracting. Nice shot overall, the contrast is done well and the colors are muted so not overbearing.

Nice sword and I think I get the message, not 100% sure but for me this shot would look much better with a more head on shot, not quite so angled but if you want to stay on the angle, possibly waiting until it was a little darker or get a shadow effect? A knight in tarnished armor looking defeated would be perfect! LOL but how many knights are around these days?

A nice concept but a soft focus would have worked much better for me in this shot. The clarity actually takes away from the dreamlike quality of the shot. Also, if you would have had the ribbons hanging from a star and against a darker backdrop I would have been tempted to score a 9 with this one.

The Bitch is Back

I'm guessing this is the creature from Alien? I never saw the movie, only previews. This almost looks like a printout the clarity and sharpness of the creature itself. I think an all black background would have contrasted much better, the greyish/brown one is a bit distracting to me.

Bats and Vampires!

Nice capture of a bat! I love these guys, wouldn't want to get upclose to one, but they are fasinating creatures! If you could have only captured him away from the feeder it would have been perfect!

Tied to the Tracks!!!!!!!!!

An excellent idea for the challenge without a doubt and the overall shot is good but to me, to make it more realistic I would have had the legs showing they were bound to the hands rather than just the rope leading down to them and be cut off. Also, possibly have her also actually tied to the track in some manner.
