Learning to Fish

Good idea, but it falls short to expectations for some reason. I think if the ripple lines were level (horizontal) that would have helped -- also a little more stillness in the water. It's obvious too fast that this was shot reflected in water.

This could have been better composed. It takes some work to see what's going on here. Nice shot though.

Ditto. I'd love to hear how you processed this. It's beautiful. Thanks!

Survivor -- Buckeye

I would not have scored this high at all. It's an interesting subject, but looks terribly overexposed. I think that mislead a lot of people in this challenge (not necessarily you) -- just because it's dappled or filtered light, doesn't mean it's protected from overexposure. You made the right choice passing on this (although I still think there's a good photo there, but under more subdued lighting).

I like this better. The BW struck me as either too high in contrast or overexposed in places. I think some of the warm subtle colors are needed to give it feeling.

Nicely framed and it seems you captured him at just the right moment (he's playing ferocious for the camera). The lighting is adequate, but the focus is soft which, I think, takes from the potential impact.

Nice job, once again, and a respectable score. I see you've been decorated with the usual litany of bemused comments, so you must be doing something right.

Breathtaking. Not sure I like the road cutting through the scene (and that probably couldn't be helped), but it's a great shot all the same. A seven for you.
