beautiful black and white conversion. Lighting makes the scene.

STRIKE!

in some odd way, I like this. The noise, the shake, the garish colors, all provide me with such a sense of place, a sense of being there, that I can hear the pins drop. Composed well. 8 - good luck in the challenge!

I really like the very simple presentation. The red border a little too bright for me but it helps at the bottom of the frame. title so-so but I have no clue for an alternate. 8 - good luck in the challenge!

well composed and great timing but I think noise reducing SW took away all the great texture.

well composed but I think the use of noise reduction software doesn't enhance the image.

I haven't the opportunity to see the original but I don't don't think the inversion enhances the image. I like the leading lines of the trees.

Is it the expressions? the leading lines? The tonal conversion? Not sure, but I love this image. Excellently taken and processed. Crop and composition perfect. 9 - good luck in the challenge!

Field of Dreams

"American Gothic" with an odd twist. Pretty cool! Definitely like it. Glad oyu didn't hyper saturate the sky - would have lost something for me at least. Well done! 8

After viewing all the others must bump to 9

Dancing with Cows
by messerschmitt

Comment:
I love cows. I love this image. Love the contrast. Nothing at all I would change. Their positioning is almost mathematical which lends even more to the scene. Think the processing is excellent - like the high contrast and the patterns. one of those I wish I was there. I wish I had seen this. 10 and into my favorites.
