The Sky Has Fallen

How did I miss this one? I guess because I didn't vote in the Fallen challenge. Beautiful image, and clearly should have placed much higher. Must have been downgraded by the Title Police. ;-)

PS: Congrats on the posthumous ribbon!

I'm in LOVE too!!

Ok, ladies, take it outside. ;-D

Seriously, thank you colorcarnival for your assessment (which pretty much matched my first reaction), and thank you mstone for expressing your feelings. Some people don't like obvious titles, some people don't like contrived ones, and now I've learned some people don't like it when there isn't a title at all. There have been long debates in the forums on the subject. I prefer the "First, let the photo speak for itself" way.

I'm surprised this didn't do much better. Good clarity and exposure. Beautiful colors, too. There's something dramatic (yet humorous) about this I can't put my finger on. (Btw, I was one of your 9 votes and almost bumped it to a 10.)

Woo Hoooo!

Congrats on a well-deserved blue ribbon!
After reading your comment, I have to say I like the rivet. :-)

I love the sense of illusion in this. Wish it were a little sharper / better exposed on the ducks, but it's an intriguing photo. A high score from me.

This is one of my challenge favorites. The wet rock gives the illusion that Ducky is riding a wave. Sky color a little unnatural but that is a minor quibble. Nice catch of the spray.

Great photo. It really does look like a dance, and it has an enchanted quality.

I looked at your workflow and have no idea what all that means! So much for my own ability to do advanced editing. :-)

As others have said, very nicely done, singly and together.
