I think this is an excellent black and white, but I don't particularly care for the centered composition as much as I might if it was off center somewhat...

Hi Brentg3...

This is an interesting looking bug for sure... The 'documentary' style shot looks ok. I could imagine seeing a photo similar to this in an insect book of some sort.

The photo meets the challenge, but there doesn't seem to be anything extremely inspiring about the image.

This photo doesn't meet the challenge. I don't perceive much effort towards the challenge, and the image quality is very poor.

Better luck next time....

This is an excellent image... I love the quaint city setting and the empty streets and walkways... I think the toning is just a bit heavy though... excellent image :)

Hi Adine...

This is a nice pet photo for sure. I like the composition you chose and the lighting seems to work fine for me, even though some of your comments say otherwise... This would be a good image for you to print and frame for your personal collection :)

When you present a pet photo on DPChallenge, there must be something incredibly unique about it for it to score well. I personally believe that most DPC people are bored with photos of domestic house pets. The score you received and the lack of user feedback in the comments reinforces my belief. The image didn't inspire comments from the viewers simply because it is a house pet photo and there is no single significantly strong element about the photo.

Another reason I personally believe that household pet photos don't score well is the perceived lack of effort to get the photo. Most don't consider it creative, especially in a 'fauna' challenge. Even though this photo meets the challenge, I think more was expected. Photos of children receive the same level of mediocre intreste on this site for the same reasons.

excellent perspective on the arch... I think the blue cast works fairly well in this one but I would love to see it the other way as well :) - nice work...

excellent shot... I love postcard scenes that don't have the strong 'cheezy touristy' factor to them. The subdued color on this one nicely enhances the 'old' theme... excellent work :) - setzler

This is a beautiful image... I know nothing about where this was taken or what the 'postcard' value of it is, but the image is definitely 'speaking' to me... phenomenal work... = 10 - setzler

excellent architectural photo... i love good architecture shots and this one is no exception. the curves and the light / dark contrast are very strong together. The composition you chose here accents the architecture nicely... great work :) = 10 - setzler
