I *swear* it looks like the dog is smiling. He has this "I'm so pleased with myself" look on his face. Makes me smile! :-)

Beautifully done. For a moment there, I thought it was a sea anemone in an aquarium with its tentacles waving in the current.

Hey, that's cool! Love the colours. Almost looks like a flower popping out of a forest.

I can't believe I didn't comment on this one during the challenge. This is fabulous. You were robbed score wise.

Laundry Day

Comment by vxpra:
I am going to ramble on this one. I really like the location of the shot. If it were mine, I'd crop it tighter to get rid of the guy in the laundry, the blue sign at the top and the window on the right. The elements that I love are the old heavily graffti'ed wall and the pristine yellow boxes. I could live without the scooter and I'd love it if the bike were red. Of course I am the guy that went to a car show and while everyone else was shooting pretty girls I actually shot the cars- what do I know.

This is a nice shot by itself, alot of very interesting elements.

Such a stately and majestic pose with wonderful lighting.
An excellent capture!

Lots of Pipes

Comment by otisXmike:
I really like your post processing... it really brings out the different textures. Instead of "lots of pipes", "lots of holes" would have worked too!

Thanks for showing how to take everday items and make an eye-grabbing picture.

In particular, the off-center shot. Many people here score in the low 5s and upper 4s partly because they put together something with potential and then shoot it straight on.

The angle here not only makes it more visually interesting, but it gives the illusion of being a 3-D amusement park ride. :)
