Comment by Chucker:
Something has clearly caught her attention, so it fits the challenge. But without her face, this shot looses much of the impact it might have.

Now that is really interesting. Has kind of a ghostly eerie feel to it and I really like the textured feel.

Onion skin! Very cool, hadn't thought of veges as texture :D

The simple scene is really taken up a couple of notches by the edgy processing. The rich yellows and greens and dark shadows over the cabin yield a very meloncholy feel

Good composition and lighting. I like anonymity in photographs of this topic, but it seems a little odd that this person's face is completely hidden.

There is something about this image that displays plant life for this challenge, seeing the writting on the wall is part of the story here, I personally would have cropped at the corner.....7

Portrait of a Lady

Comment by JuliBoc:
This probably would have scored better in the Soft Focus challenge, but I think the composition is excellent for Half. Most of the Half shots looked chopped in half, but this looks complete. I love the colors and the curves, but I must admit, I would really like to see at least one element (preferable the closest tassels) in clear focus.

Good capture. A little on the dark side, but overall great clarity and just the right amount of motion blur. These little suckers are fast, aren't they?!?

Little Kiss

Comment by SJCarter:
Very funny capture. I like the composition (although the background is a tad on the busy side - I know that couldn't be helped, but you might consider some PP to make some minor adjustments). Look at all of that "spit" in the camel's mouth. Have you ever been spit on by a camel or llama? Speaking from personal experience - it's just nasty! ROFL Great capture.

This is such a great memorial to shoot. Looks like you got some GREAT sky to compliment this unusual perspective. Well done.
