This one was my absolute favorite of the challenge - it has an emotion and certain ambiance that draws me into it. Good job! 10

From The Ground Up

It is not a bad picture, but in my opinion, I found the photo to be too busy yet, undramatic. Nothing really brought me into the photo and I seemed to be held off by the unfocused foreground of the photo. The colors, while natural, didn't evoke any sort of emotion and I felt like I was wanting more. I guess, to say it short, the photo was kind of bland.

Looking at the tree (from your notes), I can possibly suggest a couple perspectives that would have made the photo more "active". For instance, an off-balanced, tilted shot from the trunk, moving down the branches w/ a shallow DOF could produce a more interesting feel to it. The branch could have provided some leading lines, rather than just being in the photo. Having the picture done at some "colorful" time (sunrise, sunset, night) may have also helped out with the colors to it.

These are just my opinions, of course, and not by any sort of professional knowledge.

If the statue was a little more in a 1/3 region, I believe the picture would have been more effective

Shoulda kicked the guy outta the picture - his blur in the center is too distracting. Everything else is awesome - the perspective, color... ok, I'll give it a 6.

Sea of Clouds at the Edge of Night

My problem with this photo is that it's not at night. Had it been taken at night, the photo wouldn't have nearly the impact that it has now. I really like it (honestly, I think it's a beautiful shot), but it doesn't seem to fit the challenge.

I like the symmetry of this shot - except for it feels weighted towards the left. I think the shot would have been more effective if it was cropped just to the inside of the big tree on the right.
