Disturbing image! But good technically. Good composition. So why do i react negatively? Maybe a bit over processed.

Not sure what you find odd, or whether that's positive or negative. Guess your comment seems odd to me :)

This is an extraordinary image. First it fits the theme perfectly. Second, the vapor over the wings is perfectly caught, which is not easy. Third, the heat induced distortion powers up the image. And fourth, it's an uncommon jet so the subject is more interesting than "just another Blue Angel." I am an aviation enthusiast and know how hard it is to take extraordinary pictures of airplanes. This is superb!

They say no SciFi movie has ever won an academy award for best picture. And I say no airplane photo has ever won a blue ribbon at DPC. If ever there was one deserving, this is it. Best of luck!

Nice car! Colors are good. It would be better in my opinion and convey the notion of power better if it were in razor sharp focus.

Like the photo ... composition, colors, setting, and such but not getting the connection to power. I'm probably missing something.

I'm giving this a good score, so don't get insulted or anything, but it looks like the fangs are plastic.

Very good subject. Very dramatic illustration of power. It would be better IMO if the whites weren't blown. It feels to me like you gave it too much mid-tone contrast, or a bit too much effect in Curves. Back off just a little bit and it would be better, I think.

Very nice photo of the brownies. Color and texture are fantastic! Good enough to eat. The background lets the image down a bit. And except for the shoehorn title, doesn't seem to have much to do with the challenge theme. Still, I like the image and I'm giving it a pretty good score.

Very nice B&W. I like the dramatic sky. I like the texture of the mountain. Don't like so much that the trees have lost their detail. Photo doesn't seem to me to relate very closely to the challenge theme.
