O yes, excellent spot. Pity about the sun not being a bit bigger. Nothing you can do unfortunately. What happens if you soften the contrast, almost making it a pastel art picture ? I give you 7

Nightmare

Thank you all for the great support of my entry. I must admit, I expected, or better hoped, to get to 6.5 with this, but that this is enough for a red ribbon, what a bonus.

The shot itself is actually very simple.

An orange pantyhose over my wife's face and a big scream. Crop to what looks best and maybe some more contrast. That's all.

I intend to re-shoot this pic shortly, but this time with the eyes panic-stricken open. Only thought of this during the voting period.

Sunset over Alki

Great shot. Foreground is too busy. My proposal would be to cut bottem part off, just above the stone in the middle. This would make the white fluffy pampas grass the main foregound. Place a paper where I propose and see if you agree. 6
