A really nice image with breath-taking dof, and though I usually don't think this - the border really adds to the image. It gives it that little something extra that takes the image up a notch.

Lovely, but feels so cold! Unique execution of the concept, and it works well.

What a lovely shot! So many things come to mind - tranquility, serenity, warmth, the absolute Glory of God. Just beautiful. Now that I'm back for a second look, I think it needs to be bumped up.

Well, the background color really threw me; it almost hurts my eyes, but I do like the way you composed the shot. The pod, though, is very interesting. I've never seen anything like it, and wish there were more detail - more of a macro shot I guess. It certainly fits the username!

Though the image certainly fits the username that you chose, the image really just doesn't tell me much. It looks almost like he just ran out of the house to have his photo taken with the tuba. Period. I would have enjoyed seeing this in a different context: marching with a band, even walking down a busy street attracting all kinds of attention, or standing on a streetcorner playing for a small crowd.

Nice warm colors, and a good choice of image for the username you chose! Focus seems soft to me, and I would really like to see the balloon look a bit sharper. I think I would have cropped a bit off the bottom - the image feels a little "bottom heavy" to me.

Black and white would seem the perfect choice for this image, and the image is certainly perfect for the challenge. A lovely capture of this beautiful horse.

Wow, not everyone has camels in their neck of the woods! Something about this image just doesn't "pop" for me. I'm not crazy about the tree behind the camel for one thing. I understand that there were probably issues with trying to get a different angle on the camel, and I can sure appreciate that, but this particular image the little something extra that would make it special.

It occurs to me that this image is somewhat "anachronistic", but not really an anachronism, since it is entirely possible that you would see this today. Nevertheless, it's a great concept, and well done.
