Sweet title ... Color, tone balance and focus are dead on - bokeh is great - perhaps a little more off-set might make him even cooler. 7

Wow - great moon image. I'm not really seein gthat aas candid, however. I'm guessing you were expecting responses like that. This is something that people might have been tempteed to do (squeeze somehtin gin) but most resisted. I'm guessing that fact will make this awesome image a less than awesome score. Giving it a 6 but it's also a fave! If the challenge was "sky" or "light" ... you'd get an 8.

This is my kinda stuff here. the juxtaposition of these elements makes it startling. I also love that this ad is so completely cheesy and surreal while reality blasts in your face when you see the "non-ad" man. To me, this is what photography is about. The focus is perfect ... people in the disatance put the viewer in the real world. Brilliant. 10 and fave.

I had you this as my top pic. The effort, beauty and intrigue here really should have given it a ribbon. You should sell it as a print (not sure if people buy prints but it definitely would have interest on a wall.
Looking at it closely I can see that noise and sharpness could use adjustment -- that's probably what pushed it down a bit - I'm not a purist like that though ... I'm more about ideas and wow-factor when it comes to voting..

Burnt coach with peeling paint

kinda fools the eye - neat texture though but the DOF is confusing which I think weakens it a tad. i might try burning the distant areas to separate them a little ... wait ... they're already burnt! Very nice though.

DOF is great here - the floating pollen knobs (pestals?? - drawing a botany blank here) are vexing to the eye.. 7
