Just spent some time browsing your DPC portfolio Daniel. Very nice work in all categories. I wish I had access to the models you have. (envy). Keep up the great work!

JPG compression artifacts in the trees. Bummer. I'll have to resubmit this.

Sunset, Breeze, Water, Trees

Certainly a keeper that I'd be proud to hang anywhere in the house. The grass positively glows gold. Wonderful composition and crop. 7.

Honey, I NEVER Said You Were Fat

I like this shot a great deal. The angle of the sunlight and shadows on the subjects is great. I wish you had cropped the rail and fence out though. I don't think it adds anything to the photo and may indeed distract from the otherwise simple beauty. The deepness of the sky is wonderful. Bumping from a 6 to 7.

Lots of potential but the focus is soft on your subject and the background is way too busy.

Helianthus annuus in strong winds

While the motion creates a lovely effect, I have a hard time voting high on something that is possibly recognizable as life, but little else since no detail or context is evident (other than the title). I think this shot has high artistic merit, but I can only give it an average score in the challenge. (5)

Perpetual Search For Water
by cooliak

Comment:
This composition has an almost electric feel to it. Those wires or stems reaching out toward the watering can are spooky. I think the black background works well, but the leaves look a little messy or something, and detract from the otherwise simplistic beauty. It also seems as though you're visible in the reflection off the metal can. Maybe use your timer to take yourself out of the shot, or do some cloning to remove the distractible elements of the reflection. 7
