Now that is the way to shoot a masque- well done.

I like the thought of putting something in between the photographer and the subject, maybe a symbolic gesture, perhaps a meaningful point I can't figure out yet.

This works really well here, all the details, the rising sun bench- the umbrella- all good.

a perfect glamor shot, all aspects quite perfect. I would be surprised at anything less than a ribbon.

I like it, right down to your reflection in the doorway in the glasses.

Admittedly a very interesting photo, yet the focus is a touch off and selective when giving serious consideration. Nice use of green as well.

Portrait at a mirror's edge

Great choice on this one, this illustrates why we need to slow down and appreciate the entries, imagine context and truly feel the shot. You have Posthumous below, putting forth a stunning anti- DNMC argument so I need not say more on that subject. But just so you know, shots like these are appreciated, as we all know you have the skill to come up with a ribbon by embracing the challenge in an outwardly literal sense, pandering to the masses, but you didn't, and for that, the shot means so much more.

I like this one- some neat use of non-traditional colors for Christmas.
