A beautiful equine portrait - crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint is has a lot of appeal showing off the character of this beautiful horse. A good entry into the challenge.

A Gift of Nature

Comment:
Very different and unique, a classic candid portrait perfectly captured. Nothing more needs to be said - it is a terrific capture and one that the author should be very proud of. Well done.

Funny and captured with a terrific sense of whimsy - chimps are indeed curious creatures and it is well captured in this image. 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.

Surreal Skyline
by GeneralE

Comment:
An extreme example of abstract impressionism, this could very well have been painted by any number of classical masters of the abstract, impressionist or pop art genres. Very clever and different. Probably not to everyone's taste which may affect it's overall rating, to this reviewer it demonstrates the power of the digital world and how it can create beautiful and impressive imagery different than the ordinary cookie cutter imagery that is normally produced. A standing O for being very creative. Well done.
