This is a nice classic shot. Very well done. So well done in fact that I can't find a thing to "critique"! :D Congrats. I'd wish you luck in the challenge, but somehow I don't think you're going to need it.

Well, I'm sure you're racking up the views. The thing holding this back IMO is the "white" isn't white, it looks yellow or beige. Good luck in the challenge.

Very, very nice. Wonderful touch in positioning and in disturbing the sand to indicate some "movement". Hope this does well for you. Good luck.

Color Temperature

This could have much more potential if the background and rug were true white. The "color temperature" (white balance) is off - too cold (blue). Clever idea nonetheless. Good luck in the challenge.

I like this. Good use of odd numbered subjects in your composition. Simple, clean photo. Nice and crisp...should do ok with this one. Good luck.

Fair Maiden

Why? Of all the subjects available. Anyway... The photo is fine for the challenge in technical terms, although I think the subject matter (lady) takes too much space in your composition. Lighting seems to be a little too harsh and it makes her far breast look funny (smaller and almost disconnected or floating in air). Good luck in the challenge.

Foggy Dawn, Laurel Lake — Actual Full-Color Image
by Bear_Music

Comment:
This location looks VERY familiar. :D Could be another lake I guess, but it looks like an image I commented on some time ago last year. I like this as an entry in this challenge. Hopefully the majority of viewers will think the greyscale trees are "light" enough. My only complaint is the title. The last bit about full-color; really didn't need that in there. JMO of course. :D Good luck in the challenge.

The Season Comes Yet Again

This is very well thought out, and it's obvious you've invested some time in the setup. It's a nice photo overall, should do well as a stock image for you if so inclined. Something about this seems a little bit off for this challenge. I think it's the wrapping paper color. There's too much of it and not enough white. If that bottom package was white I think it would make a big difference in this presentation. All JMO of course. :D Good luck in the challenge.

This is nice. I like the material you've used as the primary subject and the paper/ribbon curls add a very nice touch. Good use of lighting. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Gerbera and Mums

This is a gorgeous flower photo. Very well done in that regard. Great control of lighting and the image is very crisp and well focused. With all of that being said I can't help but wonder if this is going to get severly dinged for the "white" that you've used. Technically the background flowers are white, but there are other tones mixed in. Anyway, best of luck to you in the challenge.
