How crisp and sharp is this! Lovely capture. To be picky, I would love a little more brightness/exposure on the head, and just a little more space to the left.

My choice for the blue. Nails the challenge, and an appealing and interesting image. Just realised that this is a minimal editing challenge - even more impressive.

A Beautiful Ending

Congratulations on the red. I have to own that I didn’t fully appreciate it when I voted - I’m really glad it did so well, and that an extra point wouldn’t have swung its position! It’s a beautifully delicate and toned image, that I suspect would be all the better for being printed on a high quality rag paper.

You’ve captured this lioness in an appealing and aesthetically pleasing pose. Exposure is spot on, and a good mono conversion.

Amongst my highest scores for this challenge. Technically very good, with an excellent tonal range. I particularly like the glimpse into a world other than my own.
