I'm surprised to see this only came in with the pack. I thought it was great and it got a 9 from me.

Another high placing entry. Nice and crisp. I'll have to get one of those 100mm 2.8's at some point.

Glad to see it did well for you, knowing how abstracts often fare. it was highly appreciated. (I gave it a 9)

I Think I Nose You

How fun! Very different from the pack, and a unique people shot. I'm curious if it was a shot of opportunity, or planned out. Does not make me go "WOW", but is still well done and deserves extra pointage nonetheless.

Very nice abstract. I'll be curious to see if the "border patrol" gets this one. I think the wide border works well for it, however.

Very cool shot. I love these bugs. One minor nitpick, however. It could benefit from a bit of selective noise reduction on the background, to give it that smooth, creamy look that people tend to like so much.

Extra pointage for an original idea. If I see this in the bovines challenge, however, then I'll consider it cliche (after I get done laughing).

A Romantic Read
by dtremain

Comment:
Lighting is a bit flat looking, but the idea has some potential. I'm curious what the books are about. I see a Swastika and Star of David on the spines. A romance set in WWII? The seriousness of the concept does not quite fit with the levity of the apes.

Those apes look familiar. Guessing this entry is from dtremain. Sorry, but I have to give this an honest vote and comment, even though I am fairly sure whose it is.

Happy anniversary!

An instruction manual? I wonder if this might backfire and be taken as "You don't know what you are doing, so read this before you touch me again!"
