love it. were you going for the stigmata, or is that just an artistic accident? either way, nicely done.

surreal landscape. the figures are brilliant -- will be interested to learn whether you found them or set them up. either way, one of the top shots in the challenge.

Space Oddity
by Fredster

Comment:
I'm liking the architectural forms and futuristic, or maybe mc escher-ish, feel of this. The way the columns are cropped makes me think the background is a border, but I can't quite figure out how you accomplished the offset of the two rectangles. Regardless, a well done study of structure, texture and form.

Interesting photo, nice lines and comp. And you get an extra point for the old Yes riff.

16th Street

Comment:
Nice pic and capture, Marc. A nice and deserving score. Like the composition and framing. Brings me back to when I used to work downtown, not too far from this spot. I think some more traffic might have improved it a bit, or maybe a couple blurred buses on either side if you could have caught them at just the right time.

Pears and Pitcher

nicely done. you're quite the master of still lifes round here. Be interesting to see the lighting and processing details, if you care to post them ... love the way you pulled the texture out, truly evocative of one of the Old Masters.

Foggy tree

Comment:
Like the comp and contr jour; tree seems a tad soft which might hurt in a FS

Effective low key presentation, with just enough background detail to make it interesting. And those eyes are something else. Well done. 8
