I can't figure out what you're trying to tell me. Is she a person of authority to these kids? Or part of whatever it is they're watching?

Dang I am dense. I did not get it either. Consider me slooooooooow and unobservant. This is AWESOME. A true sense of double take.

Excellent, wish I'd gotten to this in voting. Like your duotones. Clearly your choice was deliberate - but I wonder about getting the ferris wheel in the other orientation to drive home the wheel aspect. When it looks like a tower like this, I almost want to see a handstand instead. Wonderful interpretation though!

Lisa I really liked this shot and got the idea of cartwheel and big wheel straight away. Lovely image, idea and execution

Wow, yet more proof that I'll never understand the average voter. My immediate reaction to this photo was: what a very clever interpretation to photograph a cartwheel and a ferris-wheel. It never even occurred to me that it might not meet the challenge. But judging by the ridiculously low score, lots of people must have thought so. Sigh...

I think this is a great candid. The hilights and shadows really direct the eyes. However, I get an uneasy feeling about what is being shown. I doubt that everyone is watching the lady (something is probably behind her) but it certainly feels that way. It kinda makes me uncomfortable.

this is so smart and well composed. The fact that it came in 193 is only a commentary on the voters - we now know that 27/148 or 18% of voters are smart and have taste!

Easily the best creative interpretation on the challenge. Great work!
