Something about the diaginal presentation of this doesn't work for me. I think horizontal might have more punch. The colors are great, as is the focus. Your sensor is a bit filthy though, heh.

This is one of those classic photos that you see floating around in spam emails for years. Such a hysterical expression!

I think this would work better flipped 180 degrees (which is legal in minimal editing). I really like the colors.

I have to agree that without the title this wouldn't represent still, but with the title I think it nails it. Unforunately it looks like not so many people agreed. Definately has that old Hitchcock feel.

You were my #10. Sorry my vote didn't weigh more, heh.

What went wrong?! You were in my top 5!

I can only imagine that people needed to see this photo bigger. If this were to be put in a gallery at full size there would constantly be someone standing infront of it losing themselves in thought.

You're my winner.

Love the reflection, the colors, and the stillness. I can feel the crisp cool breeze coming in through the open window as I take an afternoon nap in one of the upstairs bedrooms.

This could be a horrible snapshot very easily, but there's something about it that makes it stand out. I'm drawn to the blues and the splashes. The lighting is well done and the shine on the fingers adds depth.

The colors and balance are great, but frankly I can't say the subject is interesting.

I just read that it was a wee little bear that belonged to your grandmother. Maybe have the bear holding a wee little photo of your grandmother? I think that would be a perfect photo to add to the family album.

I think this shot really did suffer from not exactly fitting the challenge. However it is a very nice photo with a great warm color.

I feel like there's something missing. I can't quite put my finger on it. Maybe if the bear was holding a fresh flower cutting? Something to give the photo just a little more interest and personality.
