this is awesome .. when i was looking thru the challenge this one stopped me in my tracks .. i meant to come back and make a comment .. but didnt get around to it ..
loving the posture of the bear .. and the busyness .. this should have done so much better in this challenge .. the voters seem all topsy turvy .. or maybe its just what appeals to me is very different to them .. back in the day it used not to be such a discrepancy back in the day .. :(

Comment:
what a great moment you have captured .. like insteps said .. i also love how the players have left an opening so you can see the ppl watching the game .. :)
i notice iso8000 .. on the omd em1 i find i get terrible noise/grain at a high iso .. did you use a noise reduction software to minimize that affect .. like in the raw program or some other .. :)

hey Ellie .. !! .. great to see you here ..
and you are entering with a blast .. loving those incredible bright and beautiful colours .. the yellow lime area makes me think of far distance .. like light years .... your circles have become like stars .. another dimension .. :)

my first impression when opening this was of some alien being caught between the earth and the stars .. looking out .. trapped .. drowning ..
the rotation .. the black background .. the incredible contrast and details are wonderful .. seems like f16 totally worked .. !! .. ;)

Comment:
WOW Germaine .. this turned out amazing .. so dramatic .. loving how the slow shutter speed combined with your neutral density filters shows such movement .. of the palms .. and the sky is incredible .. excellent bnw conversion ..

i've just looked at this again .. and the thing that stands out the most for me is that person sitting on the blocks on the top row second from the left .. bam .. my eyes go straight to that photo .. like a magnet ..

Holiday Park Roo

Comment:
the disadvantages of an extending zoom lens .. :(
and great that the camera is ok ..
anyway .. i'm loving your point of view here .. makes this a very impactful image .. also like your editing with the added structure .. and how it looks on the kangaroos fur .. i am so close up that i feel like i could reach out and pat him ..
a good thing has come out of something rather unpleasant .. actually so far a few good things .. as in the photos you have shared in our side challenge .. :)

Unpacking

Comment:
you have succeeded in making fish look tasty and appealing .. when it pretty much makes me feel sick ..
you are an excellent food photographer .. i would hazard a guess that you love to eat what you photograph as well .. !! ..
photographing your passion or what you love creates images that have soul .. :)
