Kayak Dreamcicle

I like this (mostly). The kayak is a fun subject for this photo. The greyscale part isn't working too well for me - I think the foliage is too light and the water should be darker. Just seems off. JMO of course. Good luck.

The lightening of the clouds works well with the subject, although I have NO idea what the subject is. :) Looks like a big bobber! Is it a marker of sorts (like a buoy) to warn boaters of the rocks? Hmmm. Good luck to you in the challenge.

Simple, fun, nice. I like the creative path you took here for this challenge. Almost wish there was just a bit more for the bg - almost too simple in a way. Good luck in the challenge.

Why so sad? I like what you've done with the desat. Works well. This kind of photo is challenging in the sense that I can appreciate wanting to capture the emotion, but at the same time it makes me wonder when someone is obviously sad and distressed how can you take time to grab a camera instead of comforting the child? Personally, I wouldn't be able to take this photo. Obviously, JMO. :) Good luck in the challenge.

Clever use of desat here. Nice. The greyscale area could be a little richer in tonal range IMO (true white/true black). Perhaps a touch more contrast also? JMO of course. :) Good luck in the challenge.
