A Real Pain in the Neck

Ow, what is going on with him/her? That looks painful.

Nice capture. Focus seems a bit soft and lighting a tad harsh. BOL

Far From Home

Lovely expression - heart wrenching.
Focus on the eyes seems a little soft - it may just be the reflection. Good lighting. The only thing I don't care for - the striped part of the cub in the upper left corner. It looks just a bit odd - like he has no body or that a body and has a tail or leg sticking out. Not sure how to best explain. Otherwise, great shot.

Equidistant From the Centre After the Rain

This looks like it could be a reasonable shot - but the thick border really overshadows the photo and causes the photo itself to be fairly small which minimizes the details. I really would have preferred to see a larger version of the photo without a border (or a much smaller one).

Bond, James Bond?
Very nice - excellent tones, focus and perspective. Has to be a top finisher!

Bored Of The Music

This is a great shot - fits the Bored theme well.

The tones are very nice. I can just feel the energy drain out of me while looking at the main subject draped over the couch. The background is a bit busy for my taste. But I like how you kept half your face shadowed. Congrats on the high placement!

Sharp focus and nice DoF. I think I would have preferred this without the shadow under the pen (or at least to a lesser degree).
