interesing, but you need to use the full 640 pixels available to you. Also, key elements (sun, glare) are very central, leaving the LHS a little redundant.

Need to ensure you use the full 640 pixels available to you. As it is, small picture has significant pixelation. Shame - as interesting image.

pretty skyshot, but needs some work. Need to crop out bottom right hand corner where window distracts. Need to increase contrast and saturation to improve drama and detail and colour. Composition is 50:50, top and bottom, and woulf benefit from rule of thirds application. Finally - need to ensure that picture is correctly sized to 640 pixels to show the image off properly!

cool image - should be in the extreme action shot challenge, though! Have you used the full 640 pixels?

There was Light

beautiful clkouds. Overall picture quite dark. Picture quite grainy (intentional?). Pleasant as a moderately abstract piece, but missing a focal point for me!

Nice idea Hand looks a faction grainy (intentional?) and while clever, idea lacks a bit of "oomph"! Top of slate is suffering from lens distortion (again, intentional?). Good clean image.

Interesting non-traditional compisition. Like the detail and tone. However, that strip of very green grass does not include any features that draw my attention to it - and does not (in my view) quite balance the strong RHS of the picture.

The two graves at the top right are distractions - wonder if you could have included more of them or cloned them out.

The message is not particularly universal - Confederate or not makes little impact on me (but I assume it may have some significance).

Overall - a nice shot that probably suffered a little (possibly rightly so) for the unusual composition.

Amazing that others did not see the graveyard in this: this was one of the pics I rated high. I liked it a lot! Remember that scores are not everything.

Great polarisation, I think! Love sky colours and fluffy clouds. Foreground maybe a bit dark, and image is not particularly innovative, though.

Beautiful image! Great light and amazinfg scenery caught very well. If I were to criticise, I suppose clouds might be slightly better arranged (though not your responsibility) as quite grey on the horizon. Image is not the most innovative - but I like it a lot.
