very nice! The pencil sketch photos this week seem to be working very well for me. I believe that they are reminding me that artistic tallent is something that I wish I had :) Good shot... - jmsetzler

This photo scores very high with me on the creativity scale. The lighting and the reflection on the wood surface really make this photo stand out nicely :) The composition is also very impressive... you have me wondering how you still the pencil up like this... great shot :) = 9 - jmsetzler

excellent idea :) I am not able to draw the association with the title though... I would love to hear your idea behind that :) When I saw this, I was thinking that 1944 would be a good title. This reminds me of the barricades that were on the French beaches during the allied invasion of France during world war 2 :) - jmsetzler

I love the composition and impression of this photo and I would love to score it higher, but the challenge was for a pencil... sorry :( - jmsetzler

good use of depth of field here... everything is in focus :) the 'creative' use of the pencil in this photo seems a little bit weak to me though... - jmsetzler

This is good work :) I really like the ice concept. The only possible improvement could suggest would be to have a little more light on the end of the pencil at the far left of the frame behind the ice... good work! - jmsetzler

This is a very neat concept and I really like the image. I also believe that post processing can be used to significantly enhance a photograph. My personal problem (not yours) is that I try to draw a line between what is digital art and photography. This photo crosses that line for me. The post processing on this image gives me the impression of a pencil or charcoal sketch rather than a photograph. This image has great artistic merit and really do like it. I'm giving it a 9 rather than a 10 because of this twisted view I have of what is photography and what isn't :) Great work! = 9 - jmsetzler

very nice shot :) I love the way the mirror plays into this image. I'm trying to decide if the black and white works well for me here or not... Black and white with grain is something that I generally associate with 'old'. I'm not sure how those two aspects are improving this photo overall. The soft focus works nicely here... I would love to see the color version of this :) Good shot... - jmsetzler
