Small Orbiting Active Planetoid

This is a great shot. Apparently, the feeling was typical. I am curious about the color. My experience with LED flashlights is that they are very blue white. In any event, your soap reminds me of images of Jupiter. You must have been very busy in that 4 seconds.

I am not at all surprised that it was published. It is wonderful.

Quintessential Riverside Setting
by Artan

Comment:
Great shot. Although there is essentially no riverside shown, I would say it meets the challange. (2) I think the shot is very well framed and exposed and the shot is cripsply in focus front to back, as one might want in such a shot. I might have liked to see a longer exposure to "smooth out" the water, but one can never tell what the impact would be until one sees the whole shot. Obviously we can't do that. (3) I find the shot very pleasing. Any calander would be proud to have it. (3)

Great shot.

Kids Love Macaroni!

Great shot. The look on the boy's face and the saturated colors makes this look like it could be on the box of "mac and cheese". The knuckles on the hand got a little out of focus, but not to disctract from the look on the face.

Sling the Umbrella
by vtruan

Comment:
Wonderful action shot. One can see the effort in the child's throw. All of the subject but the very tip of the umbrella is in great focus and the background is well out of focus. The sharpness of the umbrella make me wonder if this is one photo. In any event, very nice job.

Childhood Educational Difficulties

I love it... It fits the challenge perfectly and certainly shows considerable math difficulties. I am curious about the two forms of "7", but I am curious about many things.

Very cute little ballet student and the title certainly matches the challenge. Did you intentionally make it look like a faded slide?

Ballerina Caught Dancing

Comment:
Great match on the challenge. Very pretty ballerina.

The shot looks a little out of focus. I think it would have been good to have moved the model a little to her left to avoid the edge of the curtain. Perhaps her tutu(?) could have been pushed down so it didn't fill the space defined by her left arm. The curtail itself is very nice. From what I can see of the pattern, it leaves me with a Russian Ballet environment.

Very nice shot.

Damsel's Extravagant Fan
by Trumpeteer4

Comment:
Absolutely gorgeous Damsel and an extravagant fan indeed. Perfect match with the challenge. I love it.

a couple of nearly trivial observations, but as observations is what this site is all about... The model sees to have a bit a green cast above her eyes and along the right side of her neck. I might have brought her up and to the left in the frame, but maybe not...

All in all, I love the shot.

Quiet River Sunrise

very pretty shot. I like the texture the moving water adds to the foreground. Sure is a lot of color there. Perhaps the saturation is turned up a little too high.

Great title. Fits the image and the challenge perfectly.

This is a great shot in my opinion and certainly meets the letter and spirit of the challenge. Great color saturation and focus control. Very nice!
