Very nice colors that work well together. The dark squares add a bit of mystery. Well done.

Pathfinding

Definitely an abstract in my opinion even though the guidance was "if you can tell what it is, it's not." No point deducted from me for not being an anstract. It is well composed and a pleasing image. My comments for improvement are:
1) A stronger backlighting would add and 2) The larger veins are a bit soft because they are not quite on the same plane as the main leaf. If you did not stop full down - f32, f45 - try it again if yu can.

Earth, Wind, and Fire

Very interesting and well done. I like the way the colors are not repetitive and predictable. Although it works in this composition, I'd like to see what it would do if it were not so centered. Some of the whites are a bit bright. Overall a very nice image that meets the challenge without a doubt.

Wonderful lines and colors. Should finish high.

Topography

Your title works very well for the image. Makes you wonder if it is a plate fulll of bacteria - or just a manipulated pix of a topo map. In either case, whatever it is, it fits the challenge and has lots of interest. I would be a bit happier if there were one "center of interest" that stood out a bit.

Nice colors and textures. Perhaps a bit more "recognizeable" than some will like, but a very nice take on the challenge in my opinion.

I woulod not have expected a black and white abstract to be so effectiive - never entered my my to try it. But you proved me wrong, this works very well indeed. One of my favorites. Nice job.

This is so relaxing to look at - dreamy. Great soft pastel colors, nice lines. My only problem is the jpeg compression artifacts in the area at the top where the two orange shapes almost touch. Overall - an exceptional image that should finish very high.

One of my favorites in this challenge. I am sure you will get some comments about it not being abstract enough, but ignore them. This works! Great lines, colors, composition. Very well done indeed; I predict a VERY high finish.
