Warm... yet Chilli

Like that you used a hot item to go with the warm colors, and that the light is in a shape that mimics the pepper. Seems the contrast is a bit too much since there are patches of blown out colors/highlights, especially depending what angle my laptop screen is at.

Turning away, Photo 665107 didn't care to meet This Challenge

But this is photo 665105! DMNC! Very clever interpretation and one of my top picks :)

Multiple levels of DNMC confusion...

Comment:
Had I been voting on my larger monitor, this may not have been as effective. But on a laptop, I read the first comment (a few times) and thought I had it figured out... then SURPRISE more DNMC confusion. I still have no idea if you were supposed to meet or not meet the challenge, but this shot is as confusing as the challenge description itself. So, I guess that means it gets a 10 from me... or should that be a 1? Oh, but the little hand is pointing to the 10. Can't wait to read the other comments on this one!

Ahh, I never tire of reading your adventures in setting up these creative shots. This made me feel better about sitting with a pair of tweezers putting little pieces of thread on a hacked together peep bunny. Thanks for sharing how you found solutions for problems with the setups! And, congrats on a well deserved red! :)

This is a great shot, and I love the thinking that you didn't need to be so closely focused in on the peeps, yet they're still the main point of the shot. The only thing I could think of to improve this shot would have been using children as models, to go more closely with the story.

Congrats on the 5th! I know how you feel with getting so close to those ribbons. We'll both get there eventually!

I think the idea of a different pov might have worked here... lower perhaps, and maybe with a shallower dof? I also think there might be a bit of extra space to the left of the trees that could be cropped out. I do like the curve of the fence, nad the llamas, and I don't think the processing is necessarily a problem here either. But, I think I might have taken off a point just for getting that silly song stuck in my head with your title! :P (j/k)

Day 23: Trivet

Interesting item.. definitely something for the pattern challenge! I like the symmetry here, but I agree with socalsteve that it would probably score better in voting if the composition was a bit more dramatic.

Oooh.. signs of spring! I can't wait until we start seeing these here! Love the fresh green, but I think I would have preferred a different background color.

Neat patterns here. It looks like the patters in a dish drainer mat but those holes would be much bigger I think. A strainer perhaps?

Lovely! The purples are quite intense here! Great idea for one of those "Burst of color" challenges!
