Extra points for having the guts to put in an original take on the challenge and an extra point for the US. 8

Midnight Bankquet? I bet you get a lot of questions on that... However, I know exactly what you mean and it is worth an 8.

LOL...I can't believe that after you posted that it wasn't square the image fell by a point ! You do know that voters must have linked you with your other great surf image along with the posts in the forums....yikes !!!! Watch what you say in there for now on ! :-)

These are some great shots and I hope to see more.

On the square issue....this one looked just as square as any. To measure pixels is insane. If you're going to measure this and vote down then you should ONLY do so if you are going to measure ALL SHOTS IN THE CHALLENGE.

Oh well...moved this up a notch to a 10. I know that lighting is a pain in the rump but can't imagine how many times you had to shoot this and then clean up and re-shoot....hopefully it didn't take to many!

I have four votes of 10...this one included. However, I may vote the others down a bit because this one stand out !

I keep coming back to this and wish I could go higher than a 10. This is a problem I usually have ! I vote 3 or 4 photos at 10 and then have to decide which one is BETTER than the others. Once I decide, the only thing I can do is lower the others down to 8 or 9. This one will stay at 10.

Her face is perfect. The intense look is perfect. The arms and hands are perfect. The fact that you set this outdoors instead of in a studio adds to the photo !

Very nice.

***Ok...this is my only 10. I have several 9s but this one is so different that it got the extra point***
