What a stunning sunset - who would have thought a concrete pier could look so appealing? Lovely.

Gosh - I am somewhat at a loss for words!

Radiant Spring

Radiant, indeed. A Spring image to bring a smile. a shame about the blown highlights in the front tips, but super detail in both petals and flower center. May have benefited from either more or less of the background showing. I find the very small amounts of purple somewhat distracting rather than complimentary - just need a little more. Love the subtle shadows.

Strangely appealing.

Nice kittie! A really bizarre image, that makes you look twice! Clearly not a good time of day, with very harsh light, but moments like this don't come along often. Possibly a fraction over-sharpened? A shallower dof may also have been beneficial, but might not have been possible given the amount of light.

Super composition and you have, indeed, posed your model well ;p
I think you may have been able to push your sharpening a bit more - might be worth trying.

Lovely composition, super intimate image. Nasty dust bunnies, and some degradation in the sunset background that you need to revisit - and this image is worth revisiting.

I just don't understand how this has scored so low. It was a nine from me and I thought it quiite lovely and so right for the challenge.
