I like the detail of this photo a lot. Makes me feel like I can reach right out and pet the bird. Nice photo. Clear, clean and crisp.

I like the wizard of oz feel of this photo. The colors are such that it looks like it was a set built in a studio and then a matte painting behind. Very unique. Great photo. An 8.

I love the detail. But I am not sure what I am looking at and this keeps me from giving it a 10. But the color and texture are fantastic! An 8.

I love the retro feel of this photo. Great choice of subject. Composed well. I am not sure if I like the desaturation, however. I gave you an 8.

I like the softness of the composition. Great idea placing the subject between the white pillars. The rest of the background acts as a great backdrop to cause me to focus on the subject. Great job. I gave you an 8.

I gave this an 8 the first time around. But then I came back to comment and I bumped it to a 10. Now, I cannot recall or find any reason to have given an 8 to begin with. The lighting is superior to anything in this challenge. Considering the coloring of the subject the lighting is perfect. What a soft glow on the hair. Then consider the emotion presented. What an awesome choice of subject and great setup. All I can say is wow.

I like this photo a lot. The only thing that stops me from giving it a 9 or 10 is the telephone pole on the right hand side. My eyes drfit. Other than that I say great use of the lighting. Great composition and I like the sepia tone to the photo. Beautiful work.

I like the photo a lot. What keeps it from getting a 9 or 10 from me is that I expected quite a wow factor from those in the master's challenge. I like the photo and I gave you an 8. Nice texture on the water and good colors.
