This looks like a bit of a clandestine spy mission in progress. It's just clear enough to read the sign on the gate. This scene must be near the ocean. The corrosion on all the steel is a hint.

Peaceful. You have a knack for making the sea look so gentle.

I like the pastel shades in this too. The "Impressionism" challenge was a fun learning experience for everyone. Not to say that the scores couldn't have been better, but it seems that the perception of impressionism depends a lot on the individual and their experiences. I rather like seeing things not quite in focus sometimes, as in real life, we do not always have the time to see and focus on every scene that we see. Impressionism seems to cover that aspect of our life experiences well.

Just right! Like the black and white too. It looks like skateboarding in snow.

It is interesting how her little face and eyes in this shot come thru bigger than life. Excellent emotive capture. The body language is definitely saying "Go away, and leave me alone."

I like the way the chrome looks in these long exposures.

The lighting and motion with the old vehicle make this shot look very ZZ Topp-ish.

All of these are just super. I love old cars like this.

I like the arch too. It seems odd to me that the OOF flare around the sun is not symetrical. That's not a bad thing, just a technical observation. Maybe it was camera movement if you were moving to pan with the plants motion in the breeze.
I like the gentle colors.

That is a perfect little web. Good capture, and happy that you took time to see it constructed. We all need to stop and see the spiders once in a while.
