I see your point here, nice pic with soft lighting. Are those Euros under the dollar notes?

Where on earth did you find this?? Amazing, but it must have been some scarey storm!

Good macro with a very very shallow DOF. The main focal point is only about a centimeter wide. Nice effect..

Nice set up, good lighting and an original idea. The yellow in the border is a little too heavy for this photo though.

Truly A Dead End

Pretty morbid I guess, but a good find anyway, and definitely ironic. I personally wouldn't have centered the "Dead End" sign though.

I don't think I really get the title and how it fits to the photo, I'm probably just dumb and don't catch it or maybe it is some kind of slang from where you are from. Maybe you could tell me perhaps. But I will take your word for it that it means something ironic and score you on the quality of your pic only okay.

The quality is very good, the lighting seems spot on and the composition is great. It must have been difficult to keep up this pose, I see that the cigarette is burning down, so I guess you took a lot of shots at it. Actually the way the cigarette is burnt down like that gives this image more impact. The black background is also effective, highlighting the hand more. However I see some irregularities in the background on my monitor. There is some kind of blotch on the right exactly at the middle.

Love the green/yellow tones with the black background. You might have slightly overdone it though because the side of the cigarette has also become green/yellow.

Happy face, yet sad face: what irony

Sweet portrait. You've blurred out the background well, however it still gives me a kind of busy feeling. What is the redness on the girls lower arm and the woman's leg, it seems this is vignetting somehow.

How morbid! Good idea though. I love the sepia toning.

Yep that's pretty ironic for sure, especially seeing this would have done quite well in the challenge. Pay the 25 dollars, it's worth it :-)
