An artistic success, it's less than successful in a technical sense. The lighting isn't over done creating blooms, but it's not a sharp as it should be - if the image was crisp, it would be an excellant entry. Perhaps a different background with a slightly different angle would have helped and/or a preset focus or longer focal length would have helped. A little more thought would have brought the rating higher.

Nice green study. The colors of the water, the tacks, and the background really make this pop. Great lighting.

Nice shot, IMO it would've been better if the reflection wasn't double vision

Don't know if this shot really works. The bluriness, especially at the bottom actually seems more distracting than anything and the image is a tad abstract for my taste.

good idea...well done, would a softer light source on the background have made this not so harsh?

A very creative look at colored pencils - the image meets the subject matter and with a certain cheeky attitude. A terrific demonstration of the creative process in meeting the challenge. Should be a sure bet to win a ribbon or place high as a top twenty image. A couple of minor detail problems not worth mentioning because they don't appear until you really get a critical eye and examine the image closely. Well done.
