My top pick, great DOF for this twisty quirky subject

But for the blur and the rotated horizon this would be on the front page. So much is right here, the massing and the colors are great.

The Premature Burial

A softer brush to keep the edges on the cat from being so crisp will make him blend in a bit more. Here is a quick tutorial for PS but if you are using another program look at "feather edges". Judi did a masterful job of feathering in and matching color densities in her wining entry. The bones of this entry are very good, a few technical changes would have pushed it further up the placings.

just gorgeous! And yes it would have scored better than your bum, no matter how much you love him. He is prety great too, but not as DPC friendly by far.

A strong illustrative approach, but all the elements being along the top of the frame weakens the image somewhat.

Very clever and quite creepy. Something about the mortar lines in the brick seems to steal a bit of the thunder from the noose, but that is a minor quibble on a shot that ought to be on the front page.

A Dream (... a lonely spirit guiding)

A very nice composition, though I wish the bird were higher to break up the very strong line between figure and church, but you got a great mood here, even if it is a bit more Rodger Dean than EA Poe.
