Focus is a bit soft on the front foot, but that actually works with the overall mood of the shot here. The soft natuaral lighting is nice and the composition is really nice as well.

I'm not sure if it's the same one here, but I went to a Russian circus a couple months ago and there was a lady that looked just like her and doing the same thing. With that hair and outfit it has to be the same one. I was far away and didn't have a nice lens at the time so I couldn't get anything this nice. Really nice capture and composition here, and the exposure is spot on.

Oh my, this is hysterical!!! This is something that the ingeniously creative Scalvert would come up with, although I'm probably wrong. I wonder how big that print is to cover the windows? Excellent for the challenge, and perfect title. This deserves a 10!

I like this. Nice composition and contrast in this shot. The frame works nicely. I would use a little bit of (dare I say it?) NeatImage to remove some of the ISO noise. I got hammered by a few here the one time I used NI (Ansel Adams) for loss of detail, but you shouldn't lose much detail in this shot with it.

Nice composition and exposure. I like how it's not a 100% dark sillouete and you can see just a bit of detail on this side. Sunset looks pretty, maybe just a slight bump on the saturation would make it even prettier.

I can't believe that I didn't comment on this during the voting, I probably took it for granted that I already did since I gave it a 10. This is excellent! Good work at capturing the soul of such a creature. You somehow made an eerie icon look beautiful! The detail, the lighting, the composition... everything is superb! Congrats on the blue.

Superb detail and lighting! Very nice composition. This almost makes a vulture/buzzard pretty! Very nice.

Man, the distances some people will go to enter a challenge here. GORGEOUS! Hope you've thawed out since. Really nice shot. That has to be tricky with all that white snow, but you've exposed perfectly.
