Kojo's Story of Hope

Not sure how well this met the challenge, but the shot itself is very well done. His expression is great. I like that he has a hint of a smile, not just a sorrowful "pity me" sort of look. I like the focus on his eye, the tones and the composition. Well done.

This is a very nice shot. It would have been great in the "wind" challenge a while back. Nice angle and colors.

Yes, I agree, that it has sort of an excentric (sp?) charm with all that "stuff" and I like the effect you've given it. I might also like it cropped even more from the top to accentuate the clutter of the front.

This has a very nice feel to it. It really seems to capture a "moment". The tree frames the scene nicely, bringing the viewer to the couple. Very peaceful. I like the choice of b/w as well.

...and choose, and choose, and choose. Powerful image with a great message. I like the lighting and the creative idea is wonderful. This looks like an inspired piece of art.

Pretty cool effect. I'm not sure I like the composition as well as I might have liked a different angle. This isn't bad, though. I would clone out the wire. Really an interesting looking old place. I'm glad you chose night time for it.

In your search for "Abandoned Buildings" perhaps? This is a great find. The shutters with the light filtering through just "make" this shot! Perfect type of lighting for this scene, very well captured I think. I think you should make this one a print. It's not something I would buy, but if someone wanted this sort of urban look I think it would do well.

Weeping for the Summer

I think the darkness of the sky here really helps to set off the whites of the snow. I like that it's a willow...that gives it a neat effect. The desat worked well here also.

This is perfect timing for this shot. The atmospheric conditions and the lighting work perfectly together and your composition is also very nice. I know it's probably naturally that way, but I might be tempted to rotate just a bit counter clockwise to even up that shoreline/horizon area - but that's nitpicking.

I didn't vote in this challenge, but I think you were robbed. This is such a professional, lovely piece of art you've created. Regardless of ribbon or no ribbon, you should be extremely proud of your work.
