Bear River Marshes

A lovely and striking image with vibrant color. The blue reflection carries its charm even further. Of course, such images are more appreciated in print form because there is a limitation and many fine nuances are lost in the cyber space. This is a bright scene and possibly the best landscape in this challenge because it imparts a sense of serenity and peace. Bumping up.

Golden Light
by JPR

Comment:
A beautiful and tender image. Perhaps a trite too orange but neverthe less a very appropiate tone. It is an image that is immerorial since it deals with the intrinsic triangle of life, Mother , father and child, though the father is implied. This is a loving study that will touch the heart of any viewer. Bumping up.

In the Fangs of Shadow

Comment:
I am not happy with the out of focus hand on the foreground. The child does not look happy but this is not because of essential needs such as food. The facial expression is very moving because the feeling is that he is being deprived.

Just the head would make this the most expressive image on this challenge. The lighting adds an undertow of strain to enhance the sadness. A very strong image. Bunping up

Faith
by artvet

Comment:
This may not have been your best choice for this comment. It opens up a can of worms. Namely, is faith complex? Is the way to salvation complex? Some will argue that faith is not complex at all and that the way to the lord is simple. However, I see complexity in the philosophical discussion. More so on the metaphysical nut I doubt other voters will take time to reflect. Bumping up yo 7 because you did a wonderful job here.

Fascinating and certainly very complex. Too complicated to follow the veins of these pipes. Bumping up.

this is certainly a good angle to show off height and construction complexity. Bumping up.

Bar Scene

Comment:
A very interesting take on this challenge with very cool color. Okay, here we are faced with the complexity of the human being, the souls seeking attention and converastion and doing it with the use of alcohol to remove many of the guards that we employ to conserve our privacy. Well, this is one take. Bumping up

Intricate Design

Though not as complex as I would like it for this challenge, this is a design complex composition with beautiful delicate lines and clever in presentation. Bumping up
