Is the picture on the right a drawing of a troll :)

Cute shot, and great expression in the girls face.

Line Between Life & Death

Greeting from the Critique Club

You won the (not-so) coveted brown ribbon with your first entry to DPC. Hope that doesnt discourage you from entering other challenges.

While the shot didn't score well, I feel that it really does meet the challenge well. This photo shows life and death together in the same frame. Visually, however, the composition could be improved. Perhaps getting lower to the ground to get a different perspective may have improved the shot.

In the end, you did get a favorite, which doesnt happen very often, so there is a small victory there.

Nice shot, and well captured drop. I find the whites to a bit gray however. Either way, I like it, and gave it a 6.

Well shot.. I think the ribbon has nice flow, just as the wine would have.

Nicely shot... I like the motion in the polarizer... took me a while to notice it. Only critique is that Im not crazy about the background.

There are other ribbons

True, there are other ribbons, but the challenge does mention DPC ribbons. Regardless, I like this shot, I think the background is nice and smooth. I gave it a 6.

Fresh set . . . let's try this again.

One of my favorites in the challenge. The 'bittersweet' is spot on too.... getting a brown is bittersweet... it is a ribbon, just not the one most people want.

Does that mean that if i win the brown my retinas will be scarred with the shape of a brown ribbon? Lol... good luck in the challenge.

The colour is off a bit from the true colours of the ribbons, but I think it works for this image, in that it makes it look rustic in a way.
