This one is amusing :-) If it were mine I'd clone out the bright support post behind his leg, though; that's an eyetrap, and easily gotten rid of. Maybe burn in the lower left too, to contain the foreground.

This appeals to me very much. It's overprocessed in a good way, it's very evocative and enveloping.

I just now realized this was yours, Harvey. It was one of my high-scorers. I think it's a very powerful image, made even more so by the matter-of-fact rendering of it, by the way you chose not to use contrast enhancement and dodge/burn to "pump it up". It's a fine example of the basic philosophy you espouse often in your posts :-)

Spring Gathering at The Wetlands

Very nice finish. Maybe be even a little higher without the seriously chromed-out blue in the oversaturated part of the sky :-) Very serene shot.

Awesome shot! I can't believe it finsihed so low. One of my faves, wildly imaginative image and title!

strange title since moonlight is usually depicted in blue... nice capture.

Daffodils

This is quite exquisite in conception. It's a pity the background seems crisper than the daffodils... I love the composition, I love the BG.
