Thinking of You

When I was browsing the thumbnails for this challenge even the thumb shouted "Sher Hogue!"
Pbase said I was right :)
I like the concept and processing but I am a little bit unsure about the inclusion of the water at the top. On one hand it looks like you are at the end of the beach, far, far away but on the other hand it (the water) is so bright and lacks a bit of contrast.
Thanks for the card, I'm thinking of you too. :))

The Shuttered Room

I was wondering why the colors worked so well together, but it is of course a very natural combination. Wood and leaf. The pattern of the shutters enhances that feeling of nature in manmade stuff.

Is most of this a reflection in the water or did something strange happen to the sky? :)

I prefer the original, this version makes the pillow so white that it stands out to much from the balance of the original.
The pattern of the original might be distracting, but the overal grey tone isn't. Seriously dislike this version.

Great shot Peter, I am amazed it didn't get above 7 and didn't get in the top 5.

When she would have looked straight into the camera it might have been an 8 or 9. Now she's looking away and it makes it feel a bit unpersonal. 7

Band: Ask The Slave

A great B&W with interesting subjects and background. The overal feeling is that is a bit too posed for the mood the boys are trying to express. Subject placement works well for an album cover. Enough room for titles and stuff like that. 7

Close Call

Croatia vs Sweden? (I knew about the Croatia shirt, had to look up Sweden)
Nice action shot, a decisive moment. Colors are a bit over the top perhaps, the yellows saturated so much that there is a slight yellow blowout. Nevertheless, nice shot. 7

Interesting how the grain works with this photo, love the toning, light and composition. Don't have a strong feeling about the expression.

Nice B&W with and interesting subject. Good composition and good balance between dark vs bright.
