Sadly, I'm not entirely sure how this meets the challenge... I am confused by the title. But it's so artistic, so beautiful. :) Lovely image.

The gray background against the snowy white is so ellegant - nice portrait.

New Young Idol In The Arena Of Cruelty

beautiful capture - the colors are splendid, and the tones exquisite. If possible, though, eliminating the red walls from this photo might have increased the impact. Excellent image!

Artistically speaking...it's not a very intersting image. But good try! :) The colors, lighting, and focus are all perfect.

New Farm Park Tree's
by Pompouspete

Comment:
Well, here's my two cents. :)
Perhaps this might have actually done a little better in the "Something Old" challenge.... The tree is obviously very old, whereas the connection between a farm or park being new is maybe stretching it a little. Just my opinion. :)
As for the image itself, it's interesting, but the composition isn't very exciting. The subject is awesome, but all the textures, lights and shadows make it difficult to photograph! I would suggest trying to photograph it from different points of view - try getting under the tree and looking upwards. A close-up shot of that amazing tree trunk could also be a possibility. Or, if the background isn't too cluttered, you might be able to get an intersting shot by backing up and having the tree on the side of the photo. I do really like the black and white tones though, they work VERY well here!

Hope this was helpful! :)

There's a new Ball in town.

So strange, so interesting. Just looking at this all sorts of questions pop into my head. What is the bird doing there? Who is this person? Where did the ball come from? And the editing compliments this all well.

I have a new hole in the head!

Very neat! I love the dark seppia tones here, they give the image a unique moodiness. Well done.
