I think the colors are amazing, and I love the river or canal leading you out of the frame.

Very different and unigue - a solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it has significant impact being richly colored with excellant detail. This image would have worked as a black and white as well. A perfect demonstration of the power of properly controlled light and focus. Well done.

Interesting contrast - a solemn expression for a festive occasion. Nice.

Sometimes images fail to impress on first view for any number of reasons - maybe it's the color, the subject or that the reviewer needs more caffines to stay awake. The simple elegance of this subject, rich in detail and properly framed is an excellant example of a candid moment. From a technical standpoint, it's nearly perfect with a vaguely detailed background complimenting the rich detail of the subject. From an artistic standpoint, the facial expession is directly opposed to the overall joyfull feel of the scene which is somewhat off putting but an honest view. Originally rated an 8, this is rerated to a 9. It should place well in the challenge and possibly a top ten.

Excellent capture of a quiet moment in hat looks to be a loud festival or performance. Colourful, sharp and well composed, nice DOF too.
