A Moment Alone

I love the expression of this guys face. Makes me wonder what it is he's thinking... makes me happy just looking at his face. Composition is great, though, I feel there might not be enough contrast between his hair and the background, so the eye wanders a little into the wall... perhaps a touch shallower DOF to blur the background might have helped prevent this... but I'm just looking for things to pick on really. An excellent image, which I expected to finish higher than it did. Well done.

Oh man... so close to that 6 again. Ripped off I reckon... this deserved to be the one that got you your 6.

Disturbing the Still Waters

A good animals in action shot which probably suffered coming straight after that theme. To be perfectly honest, I didn't even notice the duck in the others wake... perhaps a different title may have directed to viewer to that detail which may have helped to keep the viewer engaged in the image a moment or two longer. I like the border and think it helps this image.

Colours in this are stunning. I like the silhouette of the tree, and how the border compliments it. I'm not a fan of the electricity pylon in the background and the tilted horizon... perhaps a different crop might have helped to eliminated these... just a thought. Colours are brilliant though, and I love the streaks of light coming through the clouds.

Tom... pay no attention to these doubting Thomas'. Your shot rocked, and it passed validation. End of story. A ribbon fully earned and deserved.

Congratulations on the new PB. Shame about the harsh scrub... thought you were going to have your first 6+.

I'm surprised that this didn't get a ribbon. It was my favourite from the challenge and I was certain it would ribbon. The colours are perfect, and the angle and crop add so much to an already great image. This get my vote for most hard done by image in the challenge.
