Are you serious? The big dipper was really right there above the lighthouse? What a perfect setup! Love the long exposure, the effects of the small aperture on the light of the lighthouse, and the colors in the sky. Good luck in the challenge!

My Favorite City (NYC)

Beautifully done. Obviously done with a very small aperture with a good quality lens. I love how the outlines of the buildings are still visible, as are the clouds in the sky. The reflections on the water add a lot too. And, perhaps I'm just a sucker for color, but the blue in the top right just adds a lot of intrigue for me. Love the image! Good luck in the challenge!

Very interesting play on light... the leaves in the foreground, for me, are just a little distracting (maybe if they were less highlighted it wouldn't matter). The rest, however, is gorgeous! Good luck in the challenge!

The emotion in this imsage is exciting. I can just imagine that maybe he just proposed and she accepted! My only wish would be for more sharpness in the eyes. Good luck in the challenge!

Interesting concept. I love the idea... but it just seems weird for the face to be more covered up than the pants. It's focusing my attention in the wrong place, I want to see the eyes...

I love the colors in the sky, and the textures on the ground. I really wonder if there wasn't more color down on the ground though... Did you desaturate it? I think I would vote a little higher with a tiny bit more color. But as I said, I love the textures. Good luck in the challenge!
