wait - now it says I have not rated this?? Where is my comment from before??
Well... the gist of it was... "This is amazing fabulous....I know I'm biased, but the lighting, composition, detail, concept, fit to challenge couldn't be better! I particularly like the space above the subject emphasizing the small size, and the glossiness of the surface emphasizing the smoothness and fragility of the glass."

This is a nice portrait. The blurred train makes an excellent background. Your subject is just a bit soft. Composition is terrific.

Great idea - lovely wit the reflection of the sky and the bright yellow float - wish it was sharp! It would be a winner!

Unreal - I'll be very curious to know what this is when the challenge is over - cactus? Composed so that you see the parts of the image and accept them for what they are without having to know what the whole is. Sharp in the right places and nicely composed. 8

Nice details - good use of DOF to highlight certain details. I think a darker background would work better. The head is nicely framed, well composed. 7
