Funny. I gave this a 7 and had it finishing 5th, heh. The spot in the upper left bugged me, but I thought overall it was pretty well executed.

Beautiful, but your horizon doesn't seem straight. Kinda appears to be tilting to the right.

Against the grain

It'll be interesting to see how many people try and get you DQ'd for this one, heh. Is that what the trial of Photomatix does?

What's That On My Nose?

Comment:
I think this is one of those instances where desaturating all but one object in the photo doesn't really work. The butterfly looks fake.

It's like Where's Waldo.. I found the neon sign! If taken out of the neon sign challenge I think this is a pretty decent clean shot. However it is a neon sign challenge and finding the sign is actually a challenge in itself.

Geno's Steaks - The Best

I think this shot would have been much better without the car that looks like it's going to crash into the building. One great thing about that place is the amount of people that are usually gathered around. Without that blurry car in the way I think you would have been able to capture the people aspect better. Great colors. There's another Geno's entry where the colors didn't seem right to me. After seeing yours my suspicions were right.

Pike's Market at Night

I love the reflection on the wet brick in this shot. Come to think of it.. Is Pike Street ever dry??

Cactus gone wild!

Comment:
That's actually pretty stinkin cool. I'm not sure if I like the cactus being part of the image or if I would have rather just seen the left design made from the straight lines. Colorwise I like the cactus being in there.

I think I liked this better at first glance before I saw the face in the corner sipping out of the glass. I like the simplicity. It looks like the border is part of the continuous line. Maybe if the face wasn't looking straight on?

Lake Steam Baths

I like the feel of this photo. What the sign actually says doesn't seem to fit though. Not that you can control that, heh. It looks like a place that has been there awhile, so to people in your city it probably rings some nostalgia. In that sense I think it works.

I'm not sure many people are going to put as much thought into this, but I'm glad I did.

To nit-pick: Your upper right street light looks to have suffered a bit from the editting.
