Just Another Day in Beantown

Excellent idea and very creative. Somehow the perspective isn't quite there as I don't get a feeling of scale. Lighting seems fairly even but contrast lacks depth. Color is also off as I see quite a bit of red.

ROFL! I love it! I was going to look at all the entires then start voting this time but I just HAD to comment on this one. Love the color and the soft focusing although I think this would have been better b/w . The table arrangement and overall composition are excellent, too. Very creative and a 10 from me.

Rifle Shooted Water Balloon.

I was thinking about using water ballons if I were to enter this challenge and you did a wonderful job of using this type of medium. Although my shot would not involve a rifle, I was going to drop the balloon onto a pin or other sharp object to pop the balloon. Then I thought of logistical problems such as the water flying everywhere and that pretty much ended my train of thought for that challenge. Great job!

I think the foreground is hurting rather than adding value. I almost want to reach out and push the plants aside to get a better, less distracted, view. And the highly overexposed sky at the top is, well, overexposed. That should have been cropped out. Colors are nice and focus is off a bit assuming that the purple flowers are the main focal point.

Nice job with the glasses and using the stems as lenses. The shallow DOF works very well, imo. There are some bright spots on both glasses and are slightly distracting. I would have cropped the right side a bit more, as well. Also, the "horizon" behind the table is at an odd angle to the rest of the composition. I think if you took the shot from a lower point of view, that could be eliminated.

I really like the vanishing point in your shot here. But it looks very snapshot-like. Try to take it from a more creative angle so it's more unusual and grabs the viewer's attention. If this were in a gallery, most people give a photo only a passing glance so you want to make the most of the little time people give to your work. As for a different point of view: maybe off center, lower to the ground, or both? Also, contrast is a bit flat and could use a polarizer to bump that up a bit and add some punch to the sky. This is an excellent start, however!

Technically simple yet very effective message. The repeating pattern is nicely composed. And a good choice with b/w to maintain a simple feel about it.

Hey, that's great! Kick the man out of the car amd make him walk. Love the duotone. Details are not quite sharp. Sky and his shoulder are overexposed.

Great idea and very interesting. Composition is very good. Upper part of mirror reflection and actual wall above mirror is overexposed. Flash shadow is harsh.

Peach

Hard to distinctly see the mirror although I do see a "reflection." One could argue that it is a second peach vs a reflection. Lighting is a bit dark, too.
