Like father like son

Comment:
I gave this a 7. Good candid/thoughtful moment capture. Difficult with the whitewash in the background, but perhaps a little more contrast/vivid colors in the wetsuits and boards, may have given this a little extra. Depending what you had to work with, perhaps a crop variation at the top too. Be a good photograph for this 'surfing team' to have/own.

Thank you for all the good comments. Apologies about the sensor dust/eyesore. Here is an edited version:


And a couple of out-takes:

On The Half Shell - wout cloning

Comment:
I am unable to see the 'major element(s)' cloned out here. I gave your entry a 7 by the way - liked it, but wasn't 'abstract enough' for me.edit:removed temporary note

Pepper ?!?
by ShaneBlake

Comment:
Hypothetically, I'd likely have given this a 6, maybe 7. Nice study and colors. Just the little bit of grain here and there and the bottom left 'pink tint', detract in my opinion. Perhaps more of a square crop/framing may have given this an edge.

This as an out-take for the Abstract Food Challenge, would not have received a good vote from me. Most likely 2 or under... but that's just me. Nice image though.

I gave this an 8. Not an easy shot. The colors were very good. After seeing your Comments, that this was stuck to your finger, even more well done to get the clarity this good.

I gave this an 8. Nice 'study', colors were nice. Composition very good. Just would like to have seen more translucence in the flesh, using the light more.. but just my opinion.

I gave this an 8. Liked the pp/toning/effects used and this was definitely a good abstract that, without your title, may well have been lost on many people. Looking at your score, can't help but think that is what happened.

I gave this an 8. Good 'abstract study' of a lemon. The 'something' top left corner/background was the main detractor in this in my opinion.

I gave this an 8. Creative and I liked the colors and light play. More detail on the 'mallows' may have made this even better in my opinion, however likely looks exactly as you intended.
