Clever subject! I like the selective desaturation, but the grass seems a little too yellow. The title helped me understand the subject, I wonder if more of the wheel were showing if it would have been so necessary. Luck!

The cropping on this doesn't work for me....just a little too tight on the top. You did choose an interesting subject, though.

I like the way the light catches the wing feathers and the cobblestone background adds interest. I wish the head was more present. The bird looks slightly decapitated. Not a "perfect" stop action as there is motion blur, but if it weren't in the challenge description it wouldn't bother me at all. Nice choice. Interesting shape.

Very funny title! Interesting take on the challenge. Inviting fields nicely framed by the wire fencing. The power lines are a little distracting--don't think it would hurt to crop them out. (Sure looks like central NY state, too!)

Lovely photo--the colors are gorgeous. Unfortunately, I think, your frame is too dominant and takes up valuable pixel real estate that could be used by the picture itself.

Beautiful. Love the low angle of the shot. Interesting choice in post-processing to desaturate the blues and greens to achieve a lovely palette of warm tones. (At least, given the season and your location, I assume that's what you did.)

The color in this is stunning! What a nice composition the way you have framed it. I don't know that it demonstrates the parallel lines converging at the horizon concept of the challenge--though the ship lends itself to that objective somewhat....

I like the subject. The rust plays well off the blue sky and water. I think the composition would be improved by cropping out some of the "extra" sky at the top. And the lighthouse seems overexposed and out of focus detracting from the otherwise strong lines.

Striking lines and colors! Illustrates the challenge concept well. Don't know why, but I'm wishing for a little less cropping at the top--maybe I need to see the roof lines?
