Hotter Than Hell
by De Sousa

Comment:
Image is very strong--well lit, nicely composed, sharp, edgy, and of course sexy. I don't really get the title, though--where does the 'Hell' part come from? Nonetheless a great shot, and I hope to see it in at least the top 10.

I hate it when that happens!

Hahah, I love the humor in this shot, and our hapless hero has an appropriately nonplussed exception. Lighting winds up a bit flat, which keeps me from giving this more than an 8, but it's still one of my favorites from this challenge. Good luck!

One Ring To Rule Them All

Awesome work... great colors, composition, DOF, and conceptually very strong. As a bit of a LotR nerd, I'm bothered by the fact that the ring isn't a plain gold band--but this is nonetheless a very pretty image to look at.

One of my top picks--good luck in the final ranking!

Ah, you've boldly entered what appears to be the only landscape in the challenge. Works for me, though--red peppers and flaming shot glasses are not the only things that convey 'hotness.' Here we have the blazing sun in the desert in a stark B/W study--if that doesn't convey hotness, I don't know what does.

This is my top pick for this challenge--I hope you make at least the top 10!

Holy crap, she has a palm tree growing out of her head. She must have a hard time getting in and out of cars.

She's cute, but her smile is far too warm for this to say 'coldness!'

Spring... Fresh from the freezer

This is a charmingly weird still life.

This is a fabulous photo, but it says anything but 'coldness' to me.

Frozen Falls

Wow, this is awesome. I hope you also took a closer shot of the falls and that once this challenge is over, I'll find that in your portfolio!

This photo looks perfectly desolate and frigid. To the extent that I have my finger on the pulse of the DPC crowd, I might guess that this is earning underwhelming scores--but if so, then I'm equally sure that this is one that DPC undervalues.
