Counting cows

Very strange light on this one. It makes that field look like a huge mossy swamp, with the cows standing on top of it. Neat affect.

Very good tone to make the faucet look even older.

Good story in this one. Our threads about street photography paid off on this one. 8

September's Rain

Like the bright red leaf. It stands out against an otherwise monochromatic background. Would have liked a sharper focus on the leaf. Of course you couldn't get it, but a shaft of sun just highlighting the leaf would make a very strong composition. Don't know if shining a flashlight would have gotten the same affect, but more light on that leaf would have put the image right up there with a lot of other of the strong photos in the challenge.

Excellent politically charged piece. Love the subtle message in this photo.

Avocado & Peppers

I thought the tones you were able to capture, especially in the lower left peppers, was pretty good. Not the easiest subject to get really great contrast, but you seemed to handle it pretty well. I ended up giving this one a 6, but I don't think I really looked all that closely at it when I scored it. That lack of color causes people to really bypass the black and whites unless there is a lot of contrast.

This is absolutely lovely. I love the reflection. It looks like a painting. Please give it a title worth the image, and consider selling it for a print. It is just breathtaking.

I like the tonal quality of this one. The lighting is directed in such a way that it frames the subject well. Very good contrasts on midtones and highlights.
