on the beach

The first thing I notice is the centred composition, so you can't see much of the nice beach, but I guess that's the point. They are missing the scenery. I like that you just see the top of their head, buried in the paper. It just lacks a little punch. A slight S-curve in the levels would help to pop it out, or whatever editing methods you are comfortable with.

Interesting shape, but I don't much like the colour.

This is a cool effect. Looks almost like an airbrush painting with it's crisp lines and smooth gradients.

Nice creative viewpoint, but the curtains don't really add anything to the image. Hard to crop from this shot without ruining the balance, but different camera positioning could setup a closer-crop shot without the curtains.

There's so much detail down the image, I'd prefer to see more of it in focus.

This is quite out of focus, and I think the voters will notice! Good idea to colour the water.

I'm not sure I can figure this one out, or it's link to the challenge.

Cool idea. It's a bit like a book that I read my kids. :) The white balance is a lot on the blue side though.

The raking light brings out the wrinkles in the paper. Were you really trying to emphasise that? Perhaps more front-on lighting would give a better look for this image.

Nice use of DOF. Foreground is just slightly soft.
