Low view of a water fountain? If you let your mind wander the metal almost looks like a person bent over in deep thought or sleep. Personally, I like that you've let the bg highlights go. Brave. Not DPC friendly usually. :-) Good luck!

That's a fun piece of art! Could possibly use a small boost in contrast on this. Also...have you considered using a circular polarizer? It would control some of the highlight glare you're getting on this. Just some observations. Good luck!

You've captured the feeling of softness here for sure. The curls work for the challenge. Not sure about the off-white greyish look to this. May have been your intention but it seems like this needs a good tweak with levels.

Bit tired of smoke shots personally (that's what comes with being here too long I guess), but you've done a nice job of capturing good sharp curls. Good luck in the challenge.

This is a wonderful vista you have here. A tad thin on challenge connection. I guess technically, yes, it fits. On technical points the composition is off a tad; the horizon is tilted, and the brush in the lower-left would be better left out of the frame. JMO of course. Good luck.

Cute! Something about her expression reminds me of "I Love Lucy!". :-P

A fun exercise in painting with light for sure. Something about it's not quite there on the fine presentation level for me, and I'm sorry but can't really put a finger on it. Maybe it's the textured material that the book is on, or it could be the width of the light trails (they seem kind of wide). It's just not crisp and making me go "Wow". Nonetheless, I wish you good luck.

Fun! As a challenge entry the interest level for the subject material is medium at best (for me anyway). Hard one for me to comment on. Sorry. Good luck in the challenge.

That's a whole lot of angle iron! Wouldn't this be a fun place to get in close with a camera?! I'm sure that it's off-limits to non-employees, but still... Nice find. Good luck in the challenge.
