I can't quite tell what this is, but it is a great effect. Perfectly offset by the black background.

7 Red Stripes

I voted on this image and never got back to give you a comment, and I meant to. First, the colors on this shot are perfect, the timing is excellent with the tip of the flag folding over on itself, and the crop, with the flag itself as the subject is decent.

I voted you a six, with the above items foremost in my mind. What might get a better score is to crop so that the stripes are more prominent as Heather suggested below. Also, you might consider something like Neat image to take out a little noise and give a little sharpening that doesn't destroy the image.

One last thought: because this is an international site, it is generally hard to do well with an national flag, but, that said, this would be perfect for "Wind."

Good luck.

This is really well taken. Either of the subjects would be interesting, but together, they compete a bit. 7

This is a great shot. My guess is that you are hammering the heart strings of every father with a little girl that has passed this wonderful stage of life. Bumping up to 9.

Church Spires

This was one of two entries that didn't fit what I thought of as "impressionist" but really liked. I gave it a 10. The lighting on the original image must have been great.

Very nicely done. Not exactly what I think of as "impressionist" but I liked it, and gave it a 10. I especially like the fact that the sunrise (or set) is peaking out from behind the building.
