The lack of emotion here does not lead me to say "beautiful" when I describe this image.

It's a good image... It just doesn't say "beautiful" to me.

If I were to describe it (which is how I judge whether my entry fits the current challenge), I'd include "fake", "cold", "stern"...

But, I wouldn't come up with "beauty" if I didn't already know the challenge.

I hate to say it, but I'd want you to say it to me. Really. 5

A Penny for your thoughts

I don't usually like partial desats...

This time is no exception.

I like the pensiveness of her eyes.

Her mouth is saying "skepticism" or "slight disgust" to me.

I don't see beauty here. I'm sorry... *eek*

But... it's what I see.

SHE is beautiful... but that's not what your image, or the challenge topic says.

Nope. Not beauty. Not at all. Not even if I were a female thing like that. LOL!

But... I LOVE your humor!!

An Era Forgotten

Eek. I hate to say it... because... I do like this image... but... I don't see anything beautiful about it. Not even the dreary colors are pretty to me.

She seems very angry and she's altered my mood from the last beautiful image that I voted on.

Arg. Arg.

Still... it's a 6 from me.

Even in Basic editing one can get rid of "dust bunnies". I hate it when I don't clean my sensor. It makes for so much editing work.

Other than those nine things... *grin*... this is AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL!!

An 8 from me. I love this. And... I'm not usually a fan of this type of image. Well done.

7 from me. I find myself lacking when I try to see that the two pieces of holey steel are beauty. In THIS image they are the albatross.

The rest of it is... really BEAUTY!
