The background on the right seems so close to the shade of the musician's coat... Would like to see it constrated more. The shadow play is very cool.

This image, while interesting, I thin kwould do better as a color image. There doesn't seem to be strong enough lighting to retain even texture through the foreground rocks, and there isn't much contrast between the design elements. The addition of color, while excluding this image from this challenge, would help to add that much needed contrast.

The overexposure just washes out too much detail - not enough contrast.

Beautiful simplicity - I love the dramatic lighting in this.

Great family portrait - expressions are perfectly natural. Nice oighting as well. I like that the pose isn't cliche. Good change, and works well with the casual happiness exhibited by the ladies.

A bit too much exposure on the lights for me... Probably difficult to balance much better than you did though.

Wow - I sincerely hope this ribbons. AMAZING! Great detail, perfect background, the framing and persepctive couldn't be better. 9 - I don't give many of these. The only reason I'm not giving a ten here is that the square aspect ratio doesn't feel as natural as a more traiditonal one - I somehow think I'd prefer this image in a different frame.

This image appears tilted 1-2 degrees counter clockwise.

The tilted horizon / houses distract from this amazing cloud.

I like the composition, but I'm not seeing enough detail in the feathers for this to work for me... I really like the persepctive though - the framing is so creative.
