The colors in this photo are beautiful. There were 2 things that I thought would improve the photo. So, for whatever it's worth.... the horizontal division is distracting to me; I felt a solid color covering floor & wall would have helped. And, the pan right in the middle was not appealing. If it had been placed on one of the thirds - I would prefer the upper right - I think it would have drawn the eye into the photo. I did not rate this low, just wanted you to know why I didn't rate it as high as some.

So, THAT's how they do it! I've always wondered why mine didn't look like those in the store!

Just a little feedback -- take it or leave it for I'm certainly no expert ;-) I think Neat Image might have helped on this photo. It is such a sweet picture, but seems "hard." I'm sure others will disagree, but for something this emotive I think a softer focus would be appropriate. Neat Image would have softened it some without removing your focus. Very sweet picture -- a good idea for this challenge.

I love this photograph. I am not a big fan of b&w (tho I enetered one in this challenge) so would love to see the color shot after the challenge. (I didn't deduct points for b&w -- just a personal preference.)

I have struggled more over rating this photograph than any other in the challenge. I understand your intent and am a Christian, so I like your subject matter. So, even tho I personally don't think it meets the challenge, I'm willing to be open minded about how you interpreted it. The colors are bothering me a great deal. I see the bright green before I see the church. There also appears to be some pixel problems (artifacting?) right around the edge of the church. My eyes are drawn to that, too. So... I am not giving a low score, but would have given a higher one if it had not been for these issues.

Beautiful photograph! I'm having a little trouble fitting it into the challenge,tho. I know there's been some disagreement about that -- as usual.

I'm a real soft TOUCH honest. !!!!

He certainly does look touchable. I think a solid background would have improved the photo and also the removal of the tags. He's a cutie!

Nice idea for the challenge. I think it is a little dark. I also think the detached legs in the background are distracting. The hands have such a pleasant look, tho.

Very nice photo -- one of the best in the challenge. I think I would have liked it even better if the grass had been cropped out. That would necessitate moving the hand in more also. The snake's skin is so pretty I wouldn't want anything to detract from it. I'm sure others will disagree. ;-)
