Too unnatural for my tastes.

I am such a sucker for hummingbirds! I think I would like to see more vibrancy in the colors. The light looks a little harsh here.

It looks like a lot of detail was stripped out of the leaves, like too much Neat Image?

The Color of Money

Strangely, the color green is remarkably absent. Lucky for you that the challenge didn't specify that it had to be the color. As for an actual critique: There are some blown areas, especially in the foreground, and you can see in the two bundles at the upper left that they're not authentically stacked. Nice idea, however.

New "Old" houses

Hi Gunnar!

It seems that broader-scoped photos didn't score as well in this challenge, and yours falls into this category. Not picking one specific building to photograph hurt your score. But also, the subject matter just isn't very interesting. Everyone sees houses like these in every suburb in every city everywhere in the Western Hemisphere. Technically speaking, the color is excellent, though the nearest round window looks a bit out of focus. I definitely like this better than some of your other recent entries.

Texas State Capitol Building

Hi Richard!

If you keep scoring so damn high, I'm not going to be much help with critiquing!

The thing I really enjoyed most about this entire challenge was how textural so many of the entries were, and this is no exception. The lit portion of the dome is much too bright, and that's about all I can say about this one. Nice work!

Hi Alex!

Two things leap out at me immediately. First is that the photo is oversharpened. The halo around the building makes that too obvious. Second is that the subject is just not terribly interesting. The building you've chosen to photograph doesn't have any interesting features, which is very important in a DPC contest. The sunrise colors are great, but that just doesn't go far enough to saving this photo from boredom.
