Not sure that this meets the challenge... maybe I'm too narrowminded?

Sunset over the suburbs

I know it's not that easy to do, but I feel this shot would be better still by the removal of foliage along the left edge of the frame. 8. Still one of my top 3 shots in the challenge.

Front Yard Looking South

Ribbon contender! If this is truly the view from your front yard, I'm so jealous :-)

Oiseau de Film noir

I was just thinking it was a real shame about the black line in shot along the top of the frame which I find somewhat distracting. Then I realised it was an intentional border. Can't help thinking a simple plain line would have been more effective. Great shot though, hard to tell from B&W but looks like a Chaffinch?

I note the coat of arms of the Royal Family, but can't place the building. Really nice persepctive, and the HDR style treatment really suits the subject.

Nice lighting and pose but I feel her expression lets the shot down a little.

I know comments about borders are lame, but I feel that this border really spoils the shot (although I'm not a fan of borders in general). Aside from that, I like the composition and exposure. Nice reflections.

Blue indeed! My pick for that ribbon. Flawless shot.

My pick for a ribbon (I scored one photo higher than yours so I guess that means you're my pick for the Red :-)

If I could change anything with this shot, I would like to see it with her legs dropped down out of sight so we just see her head and shoulders in the flowers. I'm not saying that would be better - just that it would be nice to be able to contrast and compare.

My pick for the Blue. Love the smoothing of the water and lovely tones and clarity. Normally not a fan of the letterbox borders but this one I can handle.
