Dances While Taking Pictures

Comment:
If the focus had been tighter and sharper, this would have been an outstanding entry into the challenge if only because of it's base minimalist construction. As it is, it is indefinite and hard to view. A little more time capturing this image would have helped significantly.

Ice Out - Newfound Lake
by DJWoodward

Comment:
A good solid image that is properly framed and composed but suffers from soft focus and uncertain detail and lighting.. From an artistic standpoint, it is an intersting image but of less than universal appeal. A good entry into the challenge.

A good solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it is an intersting image but of less than universal appeal as it seems to be more of a snapshot level entry. A good entry into the challenge.

The Puffin ~ Fratercula arctica
by alpharich

Comment:
A solid image that is crisp, sharp and properly framed and composed - a technical success in every way. From an artistic standpoint, it is an intersting image but of less than universal appeal because of it's slightly flat appearance due to a little less saturation than was needed. A good entry into the challenge.

Building Bonds

Comment:
A good solid image that is properly framed and composed, but it lacks a major component of context - perhaps a little longer look at the two babies would have been a better choice. A little better foreground focus would also have helped. From an artistic standpoint, it is an intersting image but of less than universal appeal. A good entry into the challenge.

Minimalist imagery is always appreciated. 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
