Humourous snapshot for the family, not a very well carried out shot in a photo challenge.
Onboard flash and high ISO hasn't worked well here. Composition isn't bad though, at least it's not dead centre.

I'm guessing this is the belt you wore during the 80's?

"Country road" is a nice image in the Country Life challenge. I always like to glance at profiles and I can see that roads have worked very well for you, so I can defiantly see why you would choose a country road.

The image is very nice. The composition of this shot is excellent, you have filled the frame perfectly and left all the elements that make it feel complete. I personally am not a big fan of border but it does seem to fit the landscape image. I really think it is an overall good photograph, unfortunately I don't think it has the edge that allows it to stand out. I know someone had commented that the shot was moody, I almost get a soothing feel with the nice mellow colors and open space of the road. Good work.

Your subject has a slightly shiny forehead ;-) Great idea.

Don't like the reflection off the melon, and the shadow is a little strong. Interesting subject matter. It just doesn't motivate me. I do love the tones.

the fact that the 2 prongs aren't parallel to the rest of the buckle is very eye catching.

The compostion is good but the colours lack depth.
