Felis Catus Spottius
by Siggav

Comment:
That is one cool looking cat! A little faster shutter speed would have froze the cat's paw and whiskers (which are a little blurred). Very good color and focus on the body and legs of the cat. The red door/cabinet in the background pulls the viewers attention away unneedlessly and probably should have been cropped out. All JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Dark Queen

The colortone on this seems off. Did you desat a channel or something? How would this look in B/W? Just curious. I hope it didn't hurt getting those "spots" off! :D As for the photo quality, the lighting could stand to be diffused some, unless you wanted those glare "spots" to show up on your big "spots". The focus is nice and sharp on her nose and mouth, but seems to get soft around her eyes.

Plants spots

That's some cool spots there! Good eye to see this one. The background is perfect for this. I'm not sure if it's an optical illusion or not, but the photo seems a little blurry. Like one of those images when you look at it the right way the dots move. When I look at the lower right "leaf?" I can see the texture on the plant body so you've captured the detail. Just weird the way those spots seem fuzzy. Hope I'm the only one seeing it this way. :D Good luck in the challenge.

Spots and Dots of Color

Wow. That's some unique lighting to be that balanced thruout. The DOF is wonderful on this and what needs to be in focus is. Good control of your environment. The colors are saturated enough, but not overboard. The connection to the theme is a little thin. Yes, there are some spots, but they are a relatively small part of this composition. That might hold this entry back some. All JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

oil spots

Some interesting refraction going on here in this abstract photo. Would have a little better impact if the area around the spots (the off-white/grey area) came across somewhat cleaner. I'd have been tempted to run this thru some very heavy NI and despeckle filters to see if it cleaned up a little more. All JMO of course. Clever entry. Good luck.

Spotted corpse - twisted and wrapped
by jj94

Comment:
Kind of morbid title and theme. :( As for the image, I like the idea of using the Twister game as a body wrap. The background is too busy and distracting. Almost would have worked better with some lush green grass or plain beige carpet. Of course then you may have had to come up with a different title. :D Good luck in the challenge.

My favorite spot
by gwrecker

Comment:
Which one is your favorite, the freckle on the shoulder, or the spots on the stuffed toy? :D Wait, maybe you mean HER favorite spot? Hmmm... Anyway, it's fun to look at from a man's POV. Kind of wish she was a little more sharply focused around the face and eyes. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Spotless . . . almost
by Tammer

Comment:
Where's the color? Where's the contrast? Oh...you meant to do it this way. :D It's interesting. Not sure that I like it that much. Certainly is artistic and you've used some OOB thinking in your approach. As with all art, some like it and others, well... Kudos for being creative and taking a chance. Good luck in the challenge.

Under the spot light
by Stagolee

Comment:
It's "ok". Feels a little disconnected as a storyline. I think it's the expression on his face, the frazzled hair, and the sweat. He looks tired - perhaps you meant it to come across this way. Maybe it's the color of the "spots"? Hard to explain, but the image feels drab and depressing. Maybe a brighter color choice for the spots, like royal blue or something? I don't know. Sorry, wish I could explain it better. Anyway, best of luck to you in the challenge.

Water Drops on Hawaiian Gecko

Two initial reactions. 1st is way cool, 2nd is way oversharpened. The oversharpening is really hampering the potential of this photo IMO. Good luck in the challenge.
