I am not sure what the white areas are meant to be...so I guess you fit the challenge.

This was a strange challenge. I am still finding some of my own highest rated shots well into the mid 5's. Got a 9 and a fave from me.

Cool nature shot. For this one, in the sunlight, I can see the shadow detail was enhanced. 7

I love the composition, especially the people going into the station. The shirt of the lady looking into the camera seems over exposed and I wish the guy with his back to us (the one talking to the ladies) was either at a different angle or off to the side more - my eye keeps landing on his butt lol.

In some ways I think this was a hard challenge to meet with 9 being an integral part of the story but you definitely nailed that part of the challenge. Nicely done!

A totally engaging combination of shallow DOF, HDR techniques, and the way you caught the light on the subject. I'm not normally a floral fan, and this is a common subject, but exceptionally well done. I think I am faving it.
