A lot to look at here, and all of it interesting. Texture, color, expression. Exposure, focus, and DOF all well done. Nice job.

Too bad you aren't about 6 inches taller. ;^) I take it the lady is the reporter? You did a good job of composing this to get her face positioned as it is in the frame. While this works I can't help but want to see a little more of her.

This is cute. You caught a good moment of expression on the man's face. Good luck in the challenge.

It's All In The Legs

What in the world are they holding in their hand? This is fun to look at. It's interesting to see how the people in the background have moved their attention to the next group in the parade. This might have worked a little better from a lower angle?

Wow. That advertisement sure puts a twist on this. Hard to get a sense of context. The guy has a sense of surprise to his face and it appears that he is looking to the photographers left like there was some distraction. For sure this is an interesting image to look at. Good luck in the challenge.

This is a nice pretty picture, however it's hard to see how this fits the challenge. Yes, there are people in here, but there's no emotion that can be seen or felt. Nice job on the colors in this BTW. Good luck in the challenge.

Looks like the boys are having a good time. Composition works. Exposure is fine. A little grainy, but not bad. Seems just a little flat. Did you boost the contrast at all? Anyway, good luck in the challenge.

I like the feel of this image. The grass has a nice glow to it and the shadows of the trees play nice. I wish the people were a little easier to see. They're a little too distant IMO.

Well, it is a nice image of a pair of lions. Not sure how far this will fly with the DNMC group as it's a stretch as a candid (being animals rather than people).

That branch on the left must have been annoying. Too bad you couldn't reach out and prune that out of there! ;^) Don't think the scenery would have remained quite so serene then. You did a nice job on exposing for the lighting and getting enough DOF to keep both lions in focus.

Good luck in the challenge.

Pretty in Pink

Probably not the only one to mention it, but the first thing that jumps out at me is the photographers reflection in the little girl's eyes. She's very cute. ;^) You selected a very shallow DOF which works overall. Good luck in the challenge.
