Pin

Pin is nice and sharp. The detail in the purple is a bit distracting. I like the unbalanced nature of the pins position, which is a nice juxtaposition (I've been wanting to use that in a comment for ages) between the theme of "safety" and the risk of an unbalanced, open "safety pin".

From my experience, these minimalist type photos often don't fare will in voting, but I hope this one does well. I like it. Well done.

In His Arms

Beautiful image. Best of the "in arms" entries IMO. Clean and sharp. Perhaps might have been better with more detail in her hair and if more of her face was visable... also the clasped hands look a little odd for some reason. I think this should be a top 10 finisher.

Nice work... and this is my favourite helmet shot in this challenge, though it's a bit cluttered for my liking, in that the detail in background and the boxes takes the interest away from the main subject.

Safe from Harm

Absolutely wonderful photo. Sharp and clean. I love the minimalism of this image... the border is okay. The DOF is a bit too shallow for my liking. Well done... one of my favourites from this challenge.

Beautiful image. The detail is superb... sharp and clean. Great use of the shallow DOF without any of the subject suffering. One of my favourites in this challenge.

Absolutely beautiful photo. Nice use of a shallow DOF... her face is crystal clear and sharp. Well done... think this should do well.

Excellent use of the shallow DOF. The subject matter is clear and sharp, and the background brings some context without being a distraction.

I AM THE LIGHTHOUSE

Beautiful duotone. Hotpasta would be proud.

The border doesn't work for me though, and the foreground lacks enough detail IMO.

I love the clouds and the light radiating from the sun.

Not an easy shot to take given the basic editing restrictions, though you've done well with this.

Amish Buggy Safety

Hahaha... Amish "pimp-my-ride". :)

I like this.. it made me smile.

But... as a photo - the cropped wheel on the left and the front of the horse cost this image several point... it's also a tad OOF and the sky is overexposed.

On a safe way home

Oh... THIS is a nice photo. I love the colours and the clouds... I'm a sucker for mice clouds. The lines are leading nicely to the person on the road, which forms the subject of the challenge (if not slightly shoehorned into the challenge). The balance of the composition is excellent. Well done.
