Gotta love this one, daring composition and strangely bizzare subject. Kinda the antithesis of Zoomdak's separation shot, LOL.

I completely love this. It touches me. There's a central area that seems too bright; it's very noticeable in the thumbnail, but even in the larger size it's pullinh my eye down to the shoulder from the face. It would be worth an extra point on your score if this were fixed, but a trong entry in my eyes regardless.

Extreme INaction — Yawn

Poor Karma's sulking from her next-to-last finish... I've tried to tell her it was to be expected, but she's a vain little bitch and she (rightly) blames me... Thanks all for commenting.

This is really strong. We don't see a lot of true high contrast work in here, and this stans out wonderfully. certainly, it's extreme action.

"Hwoo-ya!!" Cutting thru the Ozone! (paragliding wing-overs above the beach homes)

Nice shot. I like it better each time I look at it. The title is sort of dragging it down, IMO. I also have a nasty suspicion that this is THE "damned beach", or nearby it, coastal Oregon. Damned beach! So if that's zoomer or charlie doing this paragliding, well then damn, I knew it! regardless, a good entry and a totally different "look" from the rest of the challenge.

This is an interesting take on "extreme action"; I was underwhelmed at first, but I keep coming back to it and I've bumped it up two levels. I like the gritty "accidental" tone of the image, and it's in many ways quite a penetrating take on the challenge. I hope it does better than I supect it will.

This is genuinely sick. You need help, dude. I'm assuming a dude, what woman would make an image like this?

jejeje™

The above is my attempt at humor. I'm still flinching from lookign at tis one.

This pleases me no end. I love the very unusual shape of these pushpins, the gentle, ruminative softness of the image. It's not easy to make a philosophical, humanist statement with a line of pushpins, but you've succeeded.
