I really want to like this (I do actually) but the face having some motion blur is a bummer. Almost a top choice.

I thought this was awesome! Nice find. Was my Top Pick for this challenge. Surprised it didn't make the front page.

In my Top 3. Nicely seen and well captured. I thought that you took a challenging scene and really found an interesting perspective on it. The processing approach works well too.

My top pick. Loved the comp and the processing. The 'Aftermath' here is very evident and this is truly an artistic representation of the subject / topic. Well done. Just sorry to see it didn't make the Top 3.

This was in my Top 3 - gave it an 8. The shadows with the B&W presentation sold it for me. Just enough left out of the frame to keep it edgy. Well done.

FWIW - Had this tied for my top pick (I gave out two 9's). I really this abstract image, and have tilted my head both ways to see if it played any better with a different perspective - nope, it plays just fine this way! Great detail and just enough side light. Only nit that could have held it back some is it gets a bit softer near the bottom edge. A square crop perhaps to lose that? Bah. Just speculating. It is what it is, and I liked it. Well done.

FWIW - Had this tied for my top pick (I gave out two 9's). Glad to see it made the Top Ten - worthy of much more IMO.

The processing and macro aspect make this a very unique image. Could be a pair of elephant trunks, or some very well used knees, perhaps even a pair of fingers on a hand. :-P Nice.

Ha! Well. Fooled me. :-) They built many the same way up the shoreline. I have cousins in Manistee. Keep up the nice work!

My Top Pick ... lovely image and met the challenge perfectly. Should have at least made the front page. :-}

Looks like St. Joe, although could be South Haven. ???
