Adam's Apple

Nice idea, but too dark for my taste and the apple needs to be more visible IMHO. Still better than most shots here, gave it a 6.

The best of the "william tell" photos in the contest in my opinion and I love it, especially the expression on the kid wich is what makes it work in my opinion but I didn´t give it a 10 because it isn´t very original. Still very good, 9 from me.

I hope you are good with the bow and arrow...

Lol, that expression is priceless. I gave it a 7 despite the technical problems in this particular shot as this photo made me smile. Could use a contrast boost though and some more light from beneath to bring out some detail in the dogs fur but good job.

Not a bad idea but the splash really blends into the backround and therefore loses a lot of visual impact and the glare from your lighting in the top of the apple drags it down. Is that apple juice?

Not a bad idea but the harsh lighting makes harsh shadows wich I don´t like and the cropping of the bottom of the apple bothers me a bit too. Good effort though and good idea.

Probably not a bad shot at all but it´s just way too dark to tell, there isn´t really any detail left in the shot to make it out properly. Better luck next time.

Love the tonal range and contrast in this shot, only thing missing is a great sky as a backdrop and you would probably have gotten a 10 from me.

Nightmare: Savage Ducks

Valildated or not, that hand just looks out of place and well to be honest, looks pretty bad. I think the idea is good and I really like the movement of the ducks, but that hand drags this shot way way way down. Anyway, still good though but if you would have had a normal looking hand and perhaps a little less colour noise in the ducks it would have potentially been an 8 or a 9 from me even, and I don´t give out many of those so keep it up.

Lovely location you found here, I don´t think there is anything wrong with this shot at all, good clarity, sharpness, colours and contrast. I just don´t find it very interesting, that´s all. Also, I can´t help but wonder what the rest of the lake looks like, without having a clue on what is to the right of the frame here I desperatly want to find out and I feel when I am looking at this as this is just the left half of the shot and you cut out the right half. Anyway, still way better than most shots in the challenge and very well technically done, I gave it an 8.

Nice, I like the soft focus and think it was the correct choice for this challenge. Good colours and focus and pretty much the only thing I could say that could have been done better is the composition wich I think is too centered and I personally don´t find this very interesting. Gave it an 8 though, I like it.
