there's so much detail here that it takes a bit of work to really see the face

to ugly face for such beautiful sunset!!!!

Comment:
yikes...i do hope you got a good capture of this sunset--it looks like it was beautiful. as for your image, it looks like you need to work a bit more on post-processing... as for the challenge, this is barely reaching my interpretation of the challenge description. good luck!

i'm betting this will be the highest scoring image that does not meet the challenge. it is a great capture, and yes, the face is hidden, but, this is not the type of hidden face specified in the challenge description. it will be interesting to see how this scores in the end...good luck!

one more dance for the bird

i'm sure you're having a good laugh ;-)

as art, it is what it is, and i like it. as a challenge entry, you were stuck with the 1/25 catching the movement, but losing the bird (and i really doubt you could coerce/coax the bird...).

thanks for entering!

btw, you did have the 3rd highest placing Flag entry...

Broken But Not Beaten

this is one of my favorite shots in the challenge. i just wish you hadn't cropped of the edge. it's almost as if you had cropped off a hand or an ear...for partial cropping to work, you have to crop enough for it not to be noticed that something is missing. unfortunately, here, it is glaring.

also, the shell is a bit over-exposed. a full stop down would have given you much more texture on the egg surface itself.

i really think this would be a good one to revisit and reshoot after the challenge; it has all the makings of a wonderful print.
