Well, Peter, we were almost right next to each other in the finish, but your entry was much, much stronger than mine. It is very well lit and has the correct color balance (you were right about mine - it was an orange accident that I tried and couldn't quite correct). Very nice work!

How in the HELL did this end up with a 5.3??? I just saw it and I think it's absolutely superb. It tells a story and has such a mysterious quality. Another fave from me.

This is so amazingly creative. Whoever gave you a 1 is nuts! Those tens are highly deserved and you would have had one more from me if I had voted in this challenge. Really wonderful work on so many levels.

MAK, even though the flame is blown out (wait, that sounds weird, but you know what I mean), I find this by far the most intriguing entry of the challenge. It's the only one in the top echelons that combines strong emotion with the theme and makes me want to know more. Top work.

This is an awesome photo, but am having trouble seeing the time lapse element here.

I love the colors and patterns here. Has a great sense of nostalgia and captures the essence of the "party being over" very well.

Jayson, you are a brave man to enter this photo, and I'm glad you got a couple of faves on it! It certainly is counter to the DPC "ideal" of uber-sharp, eye-popping images. I can't say for sure that I like it, but I find it interesting, and want to look several times. And if getting an audience to want to look isn't art, I don't know what is. Well done.
