I wish I knew the same. You did a pretty good job here. At least the reflections don't obscure the eyes. Perhaps you should start a thread in the forums asking for tips. It's actually on my list of threads to start as I have time to practice more. Good luck to you.

Lovely composition of this scenic landscape. Excellent colours and remarkably free of haze. Well done.

Sadly parts of the Rockies have very little snow now like your shot, and it is 52 days before spring. Very nice capture, you show the vastness here.

I thought this would do much better then it did, I gave it a 7. I am thinking a lot of people simple did not get what you did here.

Sorry there is no description in the Photographer's Comments section. The reason is because I submitted this with literally only a few seconds left, and didn't have enough time to write how I did it. I'm surprised it actually got in.

I came up with the idea about 20 minutes before the challenge deadline, and my battery ran out about 10 minutes later. It's just a long exposure with a remote flash manually triggered twice, with two different expressions. I believe it's unique because the "strobe" effect is only on a small part of the picture, or at least was supposed to be. It was (obviously) quite difficult to sit still enough with my head in exactly the same place while making a different expression. I believe I could've done a MUCH better job if I had more time and more tries. This was the best of the 10-15 I was able to do before time ran out.

it's a cool overall effect (I had to look at it about 10 times before I saw what was different about it lol) but the image itself is flat/gray. 6

Hey, I tried this (hard to get right isn't it) but I wasn't happy with the clarity of my teeth. Same here although much more defined than mine was. Well thought out and meets challenge well. 8
