Interesting shot. It raises lots of questions for me and kept me looking for several minutes. It's apparently a cloudy night with the nearly full moon obscured. What are the people doing and why do so many of them apparently have flashlights? The photo lacks the "wow" factor but is intriguing nonetheless.

Nice minimalist composition. With only three primary elements, placement is everything. Something about the arrangement of the elements doesn't seem to jive into a coherent whole. It's a very nice photo, but somehow lacks that final punch. Bumped from 5 to 6 though.

I like this shot alot, but I'm ambivalent about the tryp border. It's tastefully done, but my eye is continually drawn to the vertical bars and away from your very compelling and well-lit subject. For your landscape, you've captured that golden moment perfectly, with just the right combo of low-angle light and shadow, and the fog is, of course, awesome. Bumped from 6 to 7.

Beautiful still-life. The use of color is amazing. Such brilliant simplicity. I aspire to be able to see and create like this. Need I say that the border is overdone (pssst,, it is).

This photo really captures the "wow" factor, much sought after by DPC entrants. The colors and shadow play are excellent and the composition and crop are perfect. Nicely done. This one should score well. It did with me.

Even after viewing and voting on hundreds of shots in this challenge, this shot stopped me cold. My hat is off to you for having the vision to see the potential in this object and shoot it as well as you did. There are enough textures and shadows in this shot to spend hours letting the eye wander across it and yet always finding something new and unexpected. I can't think of a single recommendation that would improve upon your product. Kudos and good luck. 10.
