Red Ones Go Faster

I see a rectangle full of angular sections of a red hypercar. But it doesn't work for me, and I'm a car nut. The composition, the DOF, the demanding presence of the black-on-black wheel and tire, they just don't work in harmony. I give it a 5.

That's EXUBERANT! It's RED! It sings to me well beyond any questions of its technical or photographic "merit". I love the adult in the chair foreground left. It's altogether an image that tells a story and I'm glad you shared it with us. A 9 from me.

red six

It's red! There's even a sort of homely, gritty integrity to the image, But in the end it feels haphazard to me, not thought-out at all. The focus is strangely placed, the noise is disturbing, the lighting is flat, and I just can't really get behind the image :-( It's a 4 from me.

Praising Red

Beautiful red, reasonably dynamic composition, nice dewdrops on the rose. The upper areas aren't performing real well for you; you could imagine a more positive leaf-and-light experience up there. A 6 from me.

Red Peppers

Whoa! Here I am scrolling along voting bright, bright, BRIGHT red pictures, then WHOMP! It's the Cave where Red was born! In a lot of ways I like this a lot, but for me it's not as well-realized as it could have been. A little careful work in post in the darkest part of the peppers to bring them up half a zone or so would have provided a boost to the 3-dimensionality of the image. The empty space to the right isn't helping you at all, all the more so because the pepper/BG division is so danged vertical. It's such and abrupt stoppage. I'd love to see one more pepper low and in the back on the right, fading into the cave :-) Also it would be great if you could change the WB on the bottom-most reflection so it was a lot less blue... A 7 from me.

Lotta red, lotta excitement, but in the end the image isn't reaching me at any other level. I'll give it a 6 for Joie de vive.

Lunch

Well, it ISred, I'll give you that. Otherwise a thoroughly ordinary image to my eyes at least, and seriously marred by the glare in the upper right. I can see where the whole image could have been framed differently, from closer in probably, and it might have worked better. I give it a 5.

Simply Red

That's a red building, no getting around that :-) If I'm not mistaken, it's in Singapore? Didn't I hear they were gonna restore it to its original colors? Anyway, that's neither here nor there. I can't say the image really works for me. The lighting is blah, the blue pedestrian is a real eye-trap, and overall the cropping/framing of the image seems way too dense to me. It meets the challenge head-on, no holds barred, so for that you get a 6 from me.

I should have known this was you, danggit. Is it a snapshot in passing or a set-up?
