the pic seems a bit out of focus and that distracts from the good composition.. and the border is a no no..

I don't find the lighting very pleasant. The background is also very distracting and the main subject is not entirely in focus.

For what it's worth: I had this in my top 3 and I believe it deserves much better than this. It's just wonderful (and far better than the watercolor version imo).

Art. Nothing more complimentary I can say. I have to admit I might've missed the deeper story here had I voted this challenge, but with time to read your comments and really think, this has such a strong story that it's ... art.

I like the concept of this one. Shadow across chair in upper left corner is unfortunate.

I'm glad you left this shot in for the challenge... definitely steps outside the boundaries of the typical DPC winning shots! I tacked an extra point onto my vote for you since you had the guts to enter this, knowing it probably wouldn't score well (which made this one of my top 2 rated shots)! I'm glad to see that others took the time to look past the initial unexpected blur and liked it as much as I did, but still disappointed to see it place where it did.

I do like the other watercolor version that you did, but for me it goes a bit too far. I think I'd maybe prefer something that is in the middle of the two versions?

Thanks for sending me the PM. It can be a while before I check out my fave folder to see who entered what I faved. I do like this shot, and I so respect the guts to enter an image like this. I just found this to be a very pleasing image. Surely not in the DPC mold, but that makes it all the better. The watercolor version is no where near as nice as this one IMO. The only thing I would chang ein this shot is the brown border. Just isnt necessary. I expected this not to score well but the 5.1 is a bit harsh IMO. My 8 helped out a little bit though. Good luck in future challenges!
