Great lizard! But too bad this isn't really above him. To the side and slightly higher is not the same thing. 3 just because I like the photo - otherwise it would be a 1.

Could be tighter on composition. Also, I just think the subject is a bit messy for a challenge. 4.

Nicely composed - - not really shot "from above" though. From a higher vantage point does not mean the same as directly above to me. 4

Needs more....the color could be a bit richer and the top right of the photo not so dark. 4.

Okay - this is a really great shot of a baseball....seriously. I love the texture, the tones, great exposure and composition. However, for this challenge I think it just gets lost because nobody cares what a round object looks like from above (for the most part). A ball looks the same from above as it does from the side. I give it a 5 still though - because I really do like the photo.

Creative subject but the focus could be a bit sharper....also would have like it lit a bit brighter. 5.

Heading for Rapids

Comment:
This is cropped too tightly. Okay - - he's heading for rapids....would have been nice to see some of the surroundings in this shot. Exposure/contrast/sharpness is all good....just not a very exciting subject. I give it a 5 because technically it is a well exposed shot.

This is not shot from above nor is it focused. The color is nice but the soft effect does nothing for it. I give it a 2 just because I like the color.
