What a brilliant shade of blue! Wonder what it becomes? Hungry little fellow, too, huh. Nice shot - thanks for sharing it!

Ah, asleep in the yard of the palace... :-) I'm still amazed at your energy and vision to set up and shoot the whole thing! Nice light here, too, by the way.

Nice find - I like the "face" - and echo the comments about the bluish tint to the leaf. The pine needles make the perfect background in color, texture, and lines.

Dipping

Gotta say I don't think I've ever seen the bulbs like you're describing. I think what hurts this is the noise in the bird, though given what it is you're shooting, I'm not quite sure how to avoid that.

Another great dahlia - I quite like this one pretty much the way it is.

Hey Jeff, you ALMOST qualified for my "No comments received during a challenge ribbon".

I didn't vote on this challenge and in fact, sadly, really never took the time to even look through it. What I really like - the deep rich color and spectrum of the green leaves and the way the light slides down the center of them. What I'm not so sure about is the composition - something seems just slightly out of balance to me, though I'm not sure what I'd do to change it. The red of the flower may be just a touch overexposed - don't know if you can change that by adjusting the reds alone in curves or not.

I like doing the desat thing with my black and white cat, too. Works nicely on these guys!

Gratuitous Kid Shot

This really should have scored higher - I think you actually did yourself in with the title. I love the "straight down the tracks" view with the light on the rails. I didn't recognize this as Aidan though I suspected it might be - hard to tell when you can't see his curls! And you gotta quit sticking your kid on active railroad tracks... ;-)
