Idea is perfect; the blown out places and posterization detract, however.

This would get a higher score if the chess board was level.

New Pastels

Comment by aerogurl:
one of my favorites from this challenge. i love the colors, the way you didn't have a rainbow of colors but a variety of the same hues. also love the round pastel in the middle, the focus is good, and the shot meets the challenge. My only critique would be the background. I would either like to see this on a crisp white backdrop, commercial shot/stock, or something unique.. the gray is drab and takes away some of the beauty of the earth tones. overall a pleasing shot, have fun with your new pastels!

Nice happy poodle.

The colours and contrast seem a little washed out, and the brightness of the toy is a little distracting - but it's a nice capture of the dog :- )

Nemo's getting lost in the background. A different angle / background would have been better. Image looks tilted too.
