Beautiful job! The model on the left is so serene and peaceful while the one on the right is so intense. Wait - is this opposites? Just kidding. I just trudged through the entire bunch of submissions - and found your image to be the shining star of the bunch. While I'm not sure the model on the right has quite the right expresion for me, It's still the best of the lot and headed for ribbonland.

Hi Ara and * Greetings from the Crique Club*

I just critiqued your "Rust" entry a day or two ago.

You will find this critique very different.

When a shot is perfect and already has over 50 comments telling you so, there's just one way:

CONGRATULATIONS!

Extreme color' It was a bit disconcerting at first, but once the initial "shock" wore off - it grows on you. Nice job.

Very nice flower - one of too many in the challenge. The repeated shape in the bottom right corner is terrific. Colors are a dream and work especially well together,

The idea is original! It's centered but the agle and f-stop you chose made the focus hard to handle.

It's definitely in the center but I'm not grasping much else.

Ouch! Unique take on the challenge - original. It shouts for a blue sky to help bring out the redish colors of the wrecking ball.

Great idea and centered for sure. Nice use of DoF with the MB emblem and the model both sharp. Picture this same image with a nice blue sky - perhaps almost the same blue as in the MB emblem... wow!

Sepia works well for this subject. Composition leads directly to the dead center position - but unfortunately - it's just a dark void.
