Peace Bridge / Rough Waters
by Pixlmaker

Comment by ambaker:
Overall I like the image, I am partial towards B&W images. I like the detail of the bridge against the smoother water. I would have taken off a point or two because it appears a bit over processed. If you look at the upper edge of the bridge, and under the nearest arch, there is a halo that looks much like a bit too heavy of an application of Topaz Adjust. I probably would have given this a 7 or 8.

You really nailed the main subject, and have some nice bokeh going, but the placement of the second flower, just behind the one in focus steals a lot of the magic here. A slight move to one side or the other would have made a better image. Or just snipping off the flower.

A Burst Of Purple!

Comment by BrennanOB:
I think this shot got undervalued because of the recent fireworks challenge. I don't see how it deserves all those sub 5 scores, it has nice foreground interest and a solid purple subject. Shrug, who understands the voters?

I would have chosen to crop out that distracting bottom part.

I think you have captured her well!
Nice idea with the window in the background, looks like she has a gloria around her head.

This is one of my favorite shots you posted in your Blue Angels thread. I love the way the spiral directs my eye along a slight detour to the subject. Brilliant!

I like the blue on gray background. The crop with such a busy background can be a tricky task, but you seemed to have done a good job! Part of me wishes for a bit of a looser crop, but cant say how it would look without having the full picture. All in all, I like it!

Comment by Prash:
Woah. She really does look enraged!!! I didn't vote in this challenge, but if I did, I would rate this picture high on framing, colors, and expression. Now I may be preferential to B&W pictures, but I would love to see this in that:-)
