I think this picture should have done much better...people missed the point.

It shows the 'naked' side of neon, when it's less striking.

Anyway, good work!

I hope to comment on this later...quick version:

Focus is too soft for my taste
Composition seems unplanned (stick in middle at top, reflection of subject is cut off)
I don't really see hope in this picture.

I Said, NO!

Nice...the pattern on her shirt keeps distracting me from the important things (her face, the flowers/petals, her hair)...Different shirt would have earned this a 7...

Good work!

Slow Down!

I love the name of this shot, assuming I haven't missed the point.

It seems as if the flowers are shouting at the hummingbird...am I reading too much into this?

Either way, I really like this photograph!

I'm not sure why, but this picture makes me think of Pittsburgh. So it's definately an evocative shot, making me think of a chilly Saturday morning in the city.

Some people might not like the cropping, but I personally like it, and I like the fact that all brightness and vividness has been removed from the neon by taking the shot during the day. I like this one.

A Pawn's Pawn

Excellent! Perfect depth of field...I just wish the colour was a little less yellow on the mini-pawn. Great title!

Even the placement of the mini-pawn on the square is perfect...It almost looks to be hiding a little...
