At first I didn't like the subject being so centered, but then the sun is so pretty on the water, so that makes up for it. Nicely done 10

I don't know...where I live, we don't have that much sun coming in our windows at 4:23 in the morning...actually none at all.

The grass is covering your subject too much. Actually, I think the building in the background could be a better subject for this challenge.

Obsolete...yes But, the picture is blurry and you got too much glare on the walkman. Since the walkman is black, perhaps using a white background and pointing your lightsource away from the subject would give you better results.

Of all the broken down vehicles in this challenge, I think this is my favorite. Although it looks like you might have picked up some noise in the windshield area, the rest looks great. The lighting and the desaturation really adds to the desolate feeling of obsolete. Does that make sense? Very good work 10

Although cropped a little too close, this is a nice picture using the light from the flame. The looks more like the camping laterns we still use today instead of the old fashioned oil lamps but still a nice picture.

I was reading your note....and thinking about the language they used back then. They usually used mother, father, children instead of mom, dad, and kids. Just being picky. Beside that, this is a very clever idea for this challenge and very well put together. Lighting is nice. Perhaps desaturating it a little would make it more antique looking. Good luck in the challenge.

Interesting angle. I like the fence in the background. The swing set (slide) is not so good in the background. B&W is fitting here. Good take on the challenge. Just a little bit blurry.
