Wow. What a finish! Can't believe you didn't ribbon AGAIN!

This is fascinating. What bothers me, though, is that it's been allowed to go pure white on the highlights. You can do repeated runs of shadow/highlight between iterations to keep that effect from multiplying the way it has here. Beautiful composition.

This is delightful, and it's miraculous that the voters actually acknowledged it with a ribbon :-) In a sea of plastic, technical tours-de-force, this stands out as an intensely *human* (all right, canine) instant in time... I gave it a 9.

This is just too perfect, as an event/pose, not to get a 10 from me. The noise reduction has gone insane, which I think is gonna get you hammered; look close and see all those smooth wavy little artefacts? But in the end, I have decicded I LIKE them, in this case, and I'm not sure why. So I give you a 10. This is just so danged HUMAN :-)

Actually, my dad made napkin puppets. All the time... I see the old dude. I like the offered librarian conceit very much. I can handle childhood as well, never having quite left mine. Well seen, as usual :-)

Wow, that's the lowest score I've ever personally seen. Congrats, it's an honor of sorts.
