focus seems just a smidgeon off, but i think the tones match the "atmosphere" very well.

Great classic scene. I really like the tone used here as well. Although I don't like the boat on the right. It looks to modern for the old look you were going for here. Nice work non the less.

Exploding popcorn and burning flowers... I think there may be a bit of a pyro lurking inside you. Good concept Jon.

lol this is so odd. I can't believe that no one commented on how well you balanced the popcorn. Interesting idea and good to see you tried something different from some other shots in the challenge!

What joy and love of the game in one image - nice work. Clearly, the image is very noisy, but I think the expressions on the face outweigh the technicals

1/7 OK Fungai..Tell Me A Joke

Comment by bassbone:
Jon- Why are you no longer a chef? Was it do to the use of the wrong kind of these guys on an unsuspecting customer? LOL

I like the color and the grass to contrast the mushroom, but I am not a fan of the short cropping here - It just seems too closed in for me.

5/7 A Tricky Choice

Comment by bassbone:
i like the expression of your daughter here - the look of bliss.

i like the donut - but I prefer the original sticky ones best

the desat does not bother me here - but I think that it needs to connect more with the rest of the image (the b/w needs to be brighter

I do not like the processing with regards to the b/w conversion. It all seems a bit too gray....haven't we discussed this before!!!!! That shirt collar of your daughters is white, not gray, right?! Use that histogram friend! Use that histogram!

3/7 Coffee...Shudder
by jonfrommk

Comment by bassbone:
Jon - You are a scream...I must say that I love coffee but I am not really a fan of Starbucks. Too bright and not enough smoothness in most of the coffee I have tried there.

Cool image...i think the desat works well here (in a side challenge, that is). The left side seems a bit too close cropped (and I mean just a bit). I like the balance of the two people on opposite sides, both holding coffee - with one hanging out and the other rushing away.

Good stuff
