Back Light As A Feather

Comment:
An intrigoung composition. The water droplet, however, seems an unnecesary embellishment on an otherwsie puer concept. I'd have given it a 9 instead of a 7 if the droplet were not there.

A very intriguind effect, and well-directed to the challenge, but the image is marred IMO by very lackluster composition.

This is an interesting take on the challenge in a couple of ways: the light is self-contained, as it were, it's an internal sort of glow, and the image itself is "heavy", not light. I admire the image on its own terms, and think it's very well done. It does not make my top tier as an answer to the challenge, but I gave it a decent score. Very nice work.

This is very "pure" light and technically quite remarkable. Aesthetically, it's not floating my boatd but I gave it a decent score because a lot of thought clearly went into it, and the result is remarkable in its own way.

Hole in Three

Great shot sam. Igave it a 10 and was disappointed it did not ribbon. In my persona list, I had you 2nd behind the 3 smokestacks ribbon winner.

I'm with Brad on this one, possibly even more strongly than he is. I find the picture quite unappealing, frankly. The soft focus is the least of its problems. The oevrall murkiness of the image is offputting, The composition is static, the unintersesting dark area at the bottom takes up way too much of the photo's real estate...

This may sound harsh, but I've seen far, far better work from you so I know you can improve on this. Unless you're trying to convey murky, washed out, unbalanced and ambiguous love, of course, in which case you're right on the money :-)

Heida's cat, eh? Damned good thing it didn't ribbon, then, or there'd be a REAL conspiracy posse on the warpath.

To those who don't see "new" and "old" here, what is a kitten if not new? And the scale is ancient...

Nice and graphic, good non-linear approach to the challenge.

Beware of the Dog

Comment:
way overprocessed IMO, but certainly not your ordinary image. It's hard to see this as a "road sign" though.
