Commenting as part of my Team Suck duties...

An excellent photo, and by far my favourite floral entry in the FS. I'm somewhat surprised the this didn't score higher than it did... DPC voters keep us all guessing. Composition is perfect, centre is sharp and you've used the shallow DOF well. Well done.

I love the tone and contrast in this image. The building alone would have made a beautiful image, but the addition of the pilgrim is a touch of brilliance which takes this photo from good to great. Well done.

This is a beautiful photo. Perfectly composed and the details and use of shallow DOF, also perfect. Think I was a bit harsh initially giving you a 7... so, I'll bump this to... yeah, what the hell... 9. Well done... I expect to see this in the top 10.

This is a fascinating image... where and what is it... looks like something out of Pratchett novel. It looks like a picture of a movie poster or something... well done. Details are fantastic, and the subject and story it tells... said it before, fascinating.

In the words of my wife sitting next to me "that's pretty cool" and "interesting". A great image and excellent use of the reflection. Contrast is great, and composition is good, but perhaps suffers a little from being a little too centered perhaps.

This is a great photo. One of the best in the FS (IMO). Sky is fantastic, contrast is spot on and the subject and foreground is sharp and interesting... and there's a story to boot. Gave this an 8 during my voting phase, actually, think it was originally a 7 but I bumped it at completion of voting... any, been an 8 for a couple of days, and I reckon it deserves another bump... 9.

This is just TOO sweet. I love the genuineness of this... yes, it's soft, and noisy, though, your B&W process has gone a long way to counter that... but I just love this image SO much... this is a beautiful image that these two will love when they grow up. Wonderful.
