Hard No. 2

It's interesting and well composed. Personally, I think portraits should be really sharp rather than slightly soft focus. Other than that, it's a terrific pictureâ€Â¦ (7)

Old Hands at Work

Comment:
Technically unfaultable – I think. It's a great shot, not cluttered and really well composed. The hands look old; but, they also look dependable, hardworking and experienced - like they could do a good jobâ€Â¦ (10)

Great shot, great sense of scale, great colour. Only fault, it does look slightly over exposed (I think) at the top.

Sharp

Hmmmâ€Â¦ Has great bad taste, yuck value. It's a superb shot, I can't fault it technically; my only gripe – and I may be missing the point – is that it doesn't meet the challengeâ€Â¦ New knife perhaps, still a bit weak, Sorryâ€Â¦

This is a fantastic shot. It really has everything, drama, action and tension. The angle is great and it's technically greatâ€Â¦ But, I think the challenge link is a bit weakâ€Â¦

How quaintâ€Â¦ But, you have to imagine how it'll look after a bit of renovationâ€Â¦ :) Very amusingâ€Â¦

Splurge!

Wicked photo; one I'm sure the ladies will identify with :) This is a class shot, it's technically unfaultable – but I expect the purists will find something – and the bill and the rose really set it off. It's not cluttered, it's central theme leaps out and it meets the challenge with aplomb.
EASY 10â€Â¦ Winner? May be... Best of luck...
