LOL, this is so funny. I love it. Its rare that a picture has humor AND meets the challenge AND is well photographed. This does all three. My only nitpick is that I would want more focus on the eye. But I still love it. 9

I am not sure I like the reflecting hood of the car. But I can tell you that I love the concept of this photo. I love how the hitchhiker appears as a ghost, to show the transient and moving nature. Great idea

This is a lovely picture. Very interesting and I would have scored it high in a free study. But it doesn't meet the challenge for me.

The Lonely Fiddler

I would have loved to see slightly subtler editing, its a tiny bit too much for me. Nevertheless, this is a great portrait. His face, clothing, and surroundings certainly tell a story. I even like the wallet bulging in his pocket :-P

To me the background is too cluttered. It draws the eye away from the crosses. Otherwise, good composition and I like how the bursts of color in the flowers stands out from the dull environment,

Seven Bird Resort and Spa

Comment:
The composition and colors of this image are very visually pleasing. I quite like it. It is especially nice that all of the bird houses look distinctly different. That gives the viewer a lot to look at.
I do think that the sticker thing with the number 7 is completely unnecessary. It doesn't fit with the mood of the rest of the photograph 7
