Very nice... love the segmentation... the use of a single, centered item in the lower part of the fram... the fact that its minimalism, yet you can see the grains of sand. Would be a wonderful addition to an office or hallway wall.

What a wonderful image... wish I was there to experience this, but your photo does a great job of taking me there. The detail, the colour... superb. Love the use of the vignette and DOF... brings the focus on the dude up front, but leaves enough of the others to help tell the story. Excellent job.

WOW! I imagine that this image's authenticity has be questioned multiple times... so I won't... but I guess I have by saying that... so I won't question it further... this is an amazing capture... plain and simple... full marks on the capture. Processing and detail are excellent too... but I'm still blown away by the capture. WOW!

A wonderful portrait. I love the colour and detail, but most of all the snot mark under the nose... I have a photo of one of my cousins at the snow with a similar effect and it's one of my all time favourite photos I've taken. Well done.

This get my vote for best floral photo in the best of challenge. Excellent use of light and contrast. Love the detail in the main subject, but the addition of the other flower in the background makes this much more than your run-of-the-mill flower photo. The relative minimalism of the image works well here, as does the border... subtle, yet effective. Nice work.

Portrait of a man

Wonderful photo. Love the processing and the composition. I love photos with a touch of mystery... wonder who this man is, what is he looking at and thinking... looks like a French grandfather waiting in an alley to score some crack ;) Only joking... but there's a story, intigue in the image... it's not just a captured moment... there's thought and emotion within THIS rectangle. Bravo.

The clarity of this, with the DOF and creative use of the border really make this image pop out of the screen. Well done.
