Very nice perspective for this image. Lovely golden-orange colors, meeting the challenge very well. I wish you'd used a polarizer to take the haze out of the sky - the white in the upper part of the image detracts. However, for the most part I like this image - very pretty and it captures a feeling of freshness and springtime.

This reminds me of one of the funniest websites I've ever seen: //www.peepresearch.org/smoking.html

Photographically, it could be exposed about a half of a stop more, and the centered composition doesn't make the subject very exciting. However, you've managed a perfectly black background, which always makes a subject jump out more - I like that a lot.

Beautiful image, one of the more professional I've seen so far in the challenge that looks like it really could be a magazine cover. Very appropriate composition and nice contrasts really make this stand out. 10

Very beautiful image. I love the mood created by the mist and the high contrast captured in the violent waves.

I'm not entirely sure how I find this fitting with the theme of the challenge, but it's such a great shot I'm giving it an 8, regardless. Excellent use of composition, and the sharpness is really eye-catching. Great shot!
