Peppers

Stunning line and pleasant composition. Thank goodness for peppers and not lemons. If I recall, these are expensive little buggers. This shot, unless you took it in the store, was a spendy one. The soft blur works for me in this shot. Just a teeny complaint, petty really. I would turn the pepper in the back left so that its stem faces away, at least some degree, from the front. It is too close to the same positioning as the one in front of it. Other than that, this shot works well for me. 7

Surreal, fun, and, thank heavens, different. I don't think I could stand another lemon shot. I would like the duck in the foreground to be tipped back, a bit away from me. As it is right now, it feels as if it is falling awkwardly forward and out of the frame. That runs counter to the fun easy feeling of the rest of the shot. Creative and daring...bravo for that! 7

Shades Of...

This image is disturbing because it evokes my memory of the horrific beheadings that have been in the news this year. Is that what you intended? I am looking for other hints and parallels. The balloons could be just that. I am curious about your message. The lighting leans that way too. Is this image an enigma, or am I just to cowardly to see it for what it is?

Fun shot. You sure know how to create a focal point. I like this.

Nice perspective and use of motif. I like that the fourth cord is out of line, adding an interesting asymetrical element.

Sweet sunset, or sunrise. It is a challenge to make a sunset unique and interesting. The branch makes the shot, and that is a credit to your creative eye. I like the oranges and yellows in the water. Very nice...8

My Minds Uncertain

This is picky, picky, but presentation is everything... The title should be-- My Mind's Uncertain, you need the apostrophe because it is really --My MInd is Uncertain, but it is probably just a typo. (Yes, in fact, I am an English teacher.) Beautiful line and perspective. I am uncomfortable with the fact that her face is so orange with this contrast level, but it sure works well on her stunning body. Maybe a blur would work here. This is a case where I am not sure how the image meets the challenge, but I am not a stickler for that because I could be missing something, and I concentrate on the image.

Nice shot. The shadow in the background is distracting, but I really like the fact that we can see through the balloon. The composition works well for me. Good job...7

Lemon Delight

I am relieved that this isn't just another lemon shot. Nice composition. I want the pie to look either more perfect, or more messed up. It is kinda middle of the road. The lemon meringue pie that I remember (I haven't seen it in ages) has a filling that looks like glass when you cut it. It is a bias that isn't fair so I am not going to let it impact my vote. But I want, desperately for some reason, to see that glasslike image...6

The Yellow Light

The concept for this shot is brilliant in its simplicity. The noise is actually a good choice, but it is too much and shades of orange on the door lower the quality, but I love the mysterious feeling of this photo, making it a fascinating enigma. A great mind is at work here. Risky and daring...8
