Rain, Rain, Go Away

I don't know if the photographer has seen any of the "water drop inversion" shots, but this would have been great for that trick. As it is presented, I'm torn. Would it look better with the cat in focus? The water would still be there so the challenge would have been met.

How to OVER water your plants.....

I like the patterns in the dark sections and how they are diagonal. They probably aren't interesting enough to garner a high vote so this will end up with a mid to low score. A tighter crop, cutting out the lower left quadrant, might have increased the impact of the photo.

Camping despite it

I don't think this is going to score to well. It isn't in focus anywhere, it's grainy, and the colors seem to be washed out. The composition is kind of fun, except for the two trees that flank the water runoff.

Drip Drop

I like the interaction of the curly vine and the water drop. The vine has some color that could have been increased to add more interest. The leaf in the background, to me, is distracting. Everytime I follow the vine down, I end up being diverted to the vein in the leaf and led out of the frame. To get a higher score, learn to simplify, cut down the objects in the frame to the bare essentials and avoid things that could detract from what you want the viewer to see.

Droplets after rain

Good choice of dof. Normally I don't like a blurred foreground but in this case it works. The things that I feel will cause this photo get a low score are:
the crop. Why leave the top part dark like that? Does it add to the composition?
the texture. It looks overprocessed.
the white spots. the ones in front aren't as distracting as the ones in the back but try not to lose the details in the light spots. Otherwise the voter thinks you lost control of the exposure.

The good part of the photo is the streaks of light on the right. I like them and the composition is interesting. Because the drops are not in focus, I think this will end up with a low score. The other things that will lower the score is noise which is showing up in the streaks and the hot spots in the drops.

I don't understand the title but I don't vote on that.
The white spots will probably cause this photo to garner a low vote. If it was a flash that caused them, which I think is usually the case, turning it off would have helped. Beyond the flash, I like the streaks of falling rain and the scene. A long exposure would have created a pretty picture with the texture of the rain. I apologize if I'm wrong about the flash.

Scars from yesterday's rain

The exposure is good. The picture doesn't generate a lot of intrest and might end up with a low score because of that and the lack of wetness(making it seem to be dnmc).
Here are some things to think about. How could it be made more interesting? Could the composition have been taken more at a diagonal, Cropped closer, or would an added element that was more colorful have changed it?

I like how this looks dusty, mouldy and gritty without being processed as dark and grunge-like.
