Have the building inspectors had a look at this rig?? I don't even want to know how long it took to wire all that togther.

Look for the fork in the road!

I like the shot but...... I don't like seeing the side of the road on the left, without seeing the opposite side as well. Maybe its because I am used to seeing the (almost) cliche' image shot down the middle of the road. I do love the B&W treatment, and the slight grain.

Okay, well judging by the votes the voters consisted of 2 die hard Yankee fans, and 1 semi die hard Yankee fan. But no die hard Red Sox fans (thus no tens).

This is a very simple image, but well thought out. The black background works very well and I really like the ????trunk top???? that its resting on.

I really like the concept here. I think you may have gotten "slapped around" by the DNMC'rs. To me this meets the challenge, but at the same time I can see why some people voted you down a bit for it, although honestly I don't think it deserved the 2's and 3's it received. Shame the flowers were there, I think if they hadn't been this probably would've scored almost a point higher.

The challenge aside. I really like this image, and I honestly cannot explain why. There is something about the contrast between the grittiness of the fence and the street in the background in contrast to the flowers.

Tim...what happened???

Its not a bad photo, as always technically very good. I think you got killed by the DNMC'rs here. I think if you'd had a less blue sky-isn't that something all photographers dream of, a bland grey dull sky :), to go with the bright swimsuit it would've scored pretty well.

I think this would've scored much higher with both the face and the rose in sharp focus. The idea behind this is very good. Maybe some fill light into the face to help "blow out" the whiteness.

You needed just a hint faster shutter speed to really freeze this one, theres just enough motion blur in the head and eyes to throw this shot off. I spent two hours shooting flamingos at the Denver Zoo one day, my wife thought I was nuts. I still didn't get one as good as this.

This is an example why non-photographers think we're all nuts. :)

When I see this shot for some reason I think Audrey Hepburn. Beautiful shot and great lighting, congrats on the ribbon.

Okay, well technically this is three points of color- joking. I have a real soft spot for the mirror like water reflection shots. Too often you find the perfect reflection and the water won't cooperate, or you find the perfect flat water and nothing to shoot. Well done. Congrats on your top ten.
