Love it. The colors are amazing and the contrast with the foregound trees is amazing. 9. Good job.

Great capture... was this at one of those festivals with an 1800's theme? Anyway, you should have made this a black and white or sepia picture. That would have been great!

Looks out of focus for some reason, but a great perspective/subject/surroundings.

What I really like about this picture is the upper part, with the very light green leaves that fad into the white and tan of the gravel (or whatever that is). Great.

The green looks over-saturated (notice the posts).

Good job on the sepia toning, that with the relatively square (and smaller size) of the shot really makes it look like and old picture. Great job! 8.

Wow that is an amazing shot. Great job. It doesn't really fit the challenge however, but I LOVE it otherwise. Still a 7 (I can't resist). If it were a "Bird" challenge it would probably be a 10. :)

A little too dark I think.

The windmill is a little out of focus, but a very spectacular shot anyway. Looks like the cam focused on the Sum instead of the silouete of the mill and house. :( 7.

Setzler, it's you! I'm sorry to hear you won't be participating in challenges anymore, we are going to miss your great work. I hope you change your mind and decide to participate from time to time. Your work and participation really inspires a lot of people here so I'd hate to see you less active. :(

I understand however. I wish Drew and Langdon would consider ways for adding another demension to the DPChallenge by possibly adding a new type of challenge geared towards beginner "photo art" with no rules. Then it could evolve from their to intermediate, etc. I wouldn't want that to be the focus of the site, but I think it could add a great new aspect to DPC.
