Scituate river

This seems to be more Landscape orientation than portrait.
The sky also looks overexposed/blown out.
I do like the colors of the leaves, nice autumn feel.
A landscape orientation and better composition would have helped this photo.

I would have scored this higher, had it been uploaded in Portrait orientation.
Also, I think the foreground of flowers and stone don't work well in this image, its more of a distraction than an enhancement. Looks like you may have taken this when the sun was high, theres not much depth/shadows here. I think it could have been a wonderful photo had it been a little better composition, and taken at a different time (or even edited differently).
But, I give you props for entering, because I didn't even do that.

This would have to be my third favorite in the challenge. LOVE the colors of the sky, the foreground is beautiful as well. Its a very serene picture. Nice composition and the landscape in portrait orientation works very well here! Great job! Bumping to an 8
Bump to a 9

This would have to be my 2nd pick in the challenge. I really love the amount of land and sky included in this image. The depth is wonderful. The light layer of mist/fog on the top of the water works wonderfully in this image. Great colors and nice editing used. Very well done. Bumping to an 8

This shot actually has a "cooler" appearance to me. There seems to be a blueish tint; perhaps it is was more orange, it would have worked better.
Interesting shot though

Autumn Path

Lovely shot. Strange how the tree on the left of the photo are (or seem to be) closer to the path than those on the right. Nice warm colors. Fits challenge well.
Waiting for voting to start again.

Usually, I love the beach... but this does not look fun at all!!!
Way too crowded. I would actually hate to be there.
Commenting until voting is back up. :)

I wanted to do a shot similar to this. I will try to do it soon, simply because I want to practice Bokeh photography.
My only criticism is that the handle on the coffee mug is a little dark... but other than that, I like the photograph.
