I like the halo effect combined with the unflattering angle: she looks like she's coughing! 8

good title. You use leading lines to create a sense of smallness in your subject. 8

I love the mysterious lines and light, and not quite being able to figure out where I am. 9

beautiful composition, excellent use of high contrast b/w (or is it really high contrast, or just a juxtaposition of light tones and dark tones?). 8

looks like an old, fading Japanese print held up to a fire. Such texture, I'm convinced I can touch my screen and feel the bumps. 8

Under the Boardwalk
by MichaelC

Comment:
this shot is almost dizzying because it "flips" visually, similarly to those cubes in the optical illusion, are they concave or convex? Looking again, I suppose the image is inverted? If so, it's an excellent use of this technique (which is so rarely used well). I love being disoriented. I think it's the job of the visual artist to disorient... and sometimes to reorient. 9

excellent processing, perfect for this photo and this challenge. I love how the lines virtually disappear into their highlights. 9
