I would have concentrated the shot on Blaine himself. In this composition, he just disapears into the background.

Lonely Decay

There is a too much going on in the background that is detracting from this photo. Also, the trees are slightly blurred. However, the composition is nice and the subject is appropriate for the challenge.

Nice depth of field. Typically, I am not a big fan of having something in the forground that is out of focus, but in this instance it works. Also, not the best interpretation of the challenge, but close enough for me.

I like the desaturation of the colors. The red shirt really stands out. Nice composition and nice interpretation of the challenge.

Grado, Italy

I love the way the lines merge in this photograph. Had you given it a bit more space on the right and let the dock meet the horizon, it would have been even better. As far as the challenge, I fear you may get people who don't agree, but a couple can be alone as easily as a person. Plus, nothing says alone like a rainy day at the beach. Nicely done.

Hey! Hey! What the...? Where is everybody! Come on you guys!!!

lol. Cute title. Your caption fits in with the penquin's waddle. I like your use of space in this photo and good use of the rule of thirds.

This looks like the Cote d'Azur. Nice composition but there is a bit too much contrast between the hazy background and the bright lifejacket.

Solitary Confinement

I am having difficulty matching the title, the photo, and the challenge with this one. The title says confinement, but the tree seems to be reaching out and over the confining fence. If I am missing something, feel free to enlighten me.

I like your choice in pairing each of the other candies. It really adds to the loneliness of the outcast much more than a homogenous group of candies would have. I have somewhat mixed fealing about the white background though. On one hand, it provides nice contrast, but it may be a bit overpowering as well. Hopefully someone with more experience can offer a better comment about that.

A ver nice and unique interpretation of the challenge. My only critique is the cropping. It would have improved in my eyes if the entire ticket was captured in the shot.
