Excellent use of negative space. The camera angle is a bit odd. The horizontal angle is great -- you're just the right amount below the dog -- but I would have rather the lens was parallel to the nose.

Planet

The blue glowing outline on the left is great. Overall a good job, but I feel the composition could be better for my tatste. I would like you to be a bit further out, so the planet could feel like it is hanging in space a bit more. The amount of black on the right seems a bit odd. I would want it either centered or to have more negative space on the right. I prefer the option with more negative space, but I feel both are a bit better than how it is now.

Effective use of the motion of the bus. It expresses her immersion in the book at the cost of total ignorance to what's going on outside. I'd have composed it slightly different: I think it would be more pleasing if the girl was a bit lower in the frame.

This photo has a lot going on. You captured three worlds in one, all three of which are most likely completely unaware of the others. I love the feeling of this photo.

Nice idea, but it doesn't feel like you put much effort into the execution. I'd bet it's just a snapshot from the car, in which case I'd have to give you kudos for the composition.

I think the twig would have been good, except that it complemented the dip in the line of trees a bit too well.

I really enjoyed this photo. It was Escheresque to me in that, at first glance, I think I see the entire photo, and then, after looking for a few moments, the reality of the photo hits me, and I realize that all of my assumptions were wrong. Great job, and excellent subtlety.

I didn't want to make any assumptions during voting, but I had a sneaking suspicion that this was yours, David. You really do seem overly sensitive to trivalities for a grown man.

I have to wonder, is this supposed to be a threat? I think you've sunk to a new low.

I guess I'm missing something. I don't understand the Absolute DPChallenge background.

Nice advertisement, and great job with the background text. It's hard to tell it wasn't added in post processing. Good work!
