I would to see the tree more to the left of the frame. I am not sure if you can crop for this challenge. Maybe not that's why. Other than that, this is a good entry.

An effective entry for minimalism. I love how the little light gave the right amount your photo needs to compose your subject. I hope this will do well.

Good shot! A composition that is well thought of. Creative, clean and not marred by any goofy post processing. I love minimalism.

I wish you didn't cut the feet. But other than that, this is one good capture. Composition, lines and textures are great. Good luck.

Manny!! I am not fond just giving "oohhhs and ahhhs I like it, etc" but when I saw this on the most popular galleries with another site, "WOW" was the only word that came out of my mouth.

Since this is the second time I saw this and my mouth isn't hanging open anymore due to awe :-O, I can finally say more. The beauty on her face is still pretty unmistakable even with all the deep lines that now cover her skin. You have such an eye to capture the essence of life through your work. I hope this will win the BLUE! If not, so what!, you are already a winner anyway!! Good luck!

Puesta del Sol

Your "Contre-jour" is absolutely perfect. I like this cropped a little tight on the left just behind the horse to remove the twigs (keep the one on the right though) as it doesn't add beauty to the already amazing photograph and a tad bit on top just to balance it. But come to think of it, it can be taken as framing technique too. :-)

I hope this will do well! Much luck!

Nitpicking: What is that 4 little thingy hanging on the trunk of the horse? Since this is advanced editing, I think it is better to remove that. IMO. Take it or leave it. ;-)
