This is a favorite of mine in this challenge. What a delightful memory you have captured for ever. I Hope this is hanging on your wall.

Absolutely -adore- this image, its precious that all the little ones are in blue and have curly hair/same color hair - I love the yellow bucket thrown into the mix it works as a centerpoint for the eye- and keeps drawing me back into the center of the photo even as my eye starts to wander towards the other two subjects... lovely composure- nicely cropped/ this i predict will do very well! :-)

Love this. Love the black and white and the three elements with three. :) Excellent detail. Nicely done. Should do well.

I like the various stages of focus here, nicely done. I can't help but wonder what this would look like with a nice B&W conversion.

Interesting. I like the composition and editing. My only complaint is the prominant 5 cables draw my eye from the fact that there are 3 pilings.

I'm liking the dof and the colors are very interesting. Not simple at all (as some would have you think).

I like this image a lot. The colors and abstract nature of it are very appealing. I just am having some trouble seeing how this meets the challenge of photographing an exit.
