Freedom in the Andes

This is appears extremely contrasty to me. The main subject is a bit small in the frame to really grab my interest. It is a nice capture of the dramatic clouds.

My freedom to take, what I want......

I've exercise my freedom to determine that this has a really tenous connection to the challenge.

Photographically, it's rather contrasty. Most of the flowers have gone to seed so there isn't really a lot of color happening except the orange and green. Because of the high contrast there isn't a lot of detail to be seen in terms of texture. It's just kind of boring.

Pretty standard clouds shot. There really isn't anything to grab on to after an initial glance.

Is he? or Isn't he: The freedom to go commando.

This looks rather like one of those paparazzi snap shots one finds in party scenes in People magazine. The cropping of his right foot appears haphazzard. His jacket completes disappears into the dark background (flash is too close and bright--suggest slow-synch flash next time). It looks a bit like he has badly touched-up red-eye which makes me think the smallness of the image is hiding things.

I know one should move in close to the subject but this is a bit too close. The human skull has many interesting contours and planes but we aren't seeing much of that due to the claustrophobic cropping.

On a wing and a prayer

The main subject, the plane, is too tiny in the frame to make an impact. It just looks like the camera was pointed at the sky as it passed over.

In defence of liberty

Without context (I don't know where this is or what is being represented besides war and Christianity) it doesn't say much about freedom to me. I'll assume it is a historical battle site from the American Revolution.
Photographically, it is a rather dull and literal interpretation. It is very static and lacking in drama or mood of any kind.

Escaping The Rat Race

It does represent a kind of freedom but in a rather dull way. It's nice scenery but nothing overly inspiring. The camper, chairs, and picnic table just aren't compelling enough subject matter. Perhaps a human element would have added some interest for me.

Freedom from Normalcy

This guy just doesn't look abnormal. He is decently dressed for one thing; his t-shirt is even tucked in with a belt. The arm gesture and open doesn't carry enough weight without further context.

Free The Acorns
by Cam

Comment:
This has a very tenuous connection to the challenge for me. It's a cute shot of the squirrel but there really isn't anything about the manner in which he is clinging to the tree that suggest freedom to me. The acorn thing is just stretching it, IMO. After all, unlike the photographer on the ground, the squirrel has easy access to the acorns, so the title doesn't even make sense.
