comments: This is what I imagined when I started voting on this challenge but since a huge % of the images are not this narrow I decided that maybe I was wrong in my thinking. You have executed it very well. 10-4 good buddy, over and out.

comments: now that's some leathery skin. I'm not sure I like the color tone, seems somewhere between b/w and sepia. Left side of her body and face is overexposed distracting from the real beauty this image could deliver.

comments: focus seems very soft on the fork. Great job getting the DOF right but I don't feel the fork (or any of it's tongs) is sharp enough. I also would like to see it a bit brighter.

comments: I think I would like to see this at a lower angle with more of the ball taking up the frame and just being able to see the dog in the background. I feel like there is too much extra room for my eyes to roam and get lost, they tend to gravitate to between the ball and dog. Image also seems very flat to me, might need a contrast boost or something to add some punch to it.

comments: I instantly liked this image, maybe it's cause I'm from the country and have a special liking to images like this, but I feel it isn't quite a shallow DOF. Maybe I'm just being too picky. It seems that if you were closer in on the corn stalks it would portray it better, again I could be wrong, just my opinion.
