Nice details on the rope. I like how you off centered the mooring ball. 8

I'm sorry it is overexposed, but I like the colors, including the green.

seems as if the subject is the buoy and not the rope

Lighting is too harsh on the metal ball! Rope which is the main character is off focus! Try a different angle.. you might have an award winning shot. a 5 for me.

Good shot. I might have eased up on the contrast a little.

Wow Dawn! This is an amazing shot! I am amazed that this one isn't on the first page! It's so full of a "story" with those two squabbling with each other, and the other one looking on with morbid interest. ..just like people do! Man, I love this! This is going right into my favorites folder!

And it seems I remember you saying on the last day that you had to go out and find something to shoot for this challenge! Even more amazing! You certainly found a good one :)
