This is a copy and paste version that I am including in every photo that I upgrade to 10 due to the title. We as members of DPchallenge need to be reminded of the topic of the challenge � we really need to reread the topic every time we reach a photo. If circle is in the title and it is appropriate I will give a 10. I am sorry if you do not agree with my method of voting � but scores are all I have.

Keeping to theme is of course key, but having circle in the title is zero indication that it meets the theme. It will punish good photos with bad themes and reward blindly.

But as to this photo, fantastic. Beautiful model, great depth of field, solid composition.

Something slightly weird

Nice composition, very geometric. Obviously the wire couldn't be avoided unfortunately. Cloud is nice addition but I feel like it looks too much like it was planned to be geometric like the rest of the picture, by almost wrapping itself around the rim. Everything else is so precise this would either need to be dead on or chaotic and not symmetrical to work best.

Stellar photograph. Great use of the dark space and bright white, perfect lighting.

What's the exposure length on this? It's perfect for this category. A little longer would've been too whited out, a hair less would've looked good but not quite as dreamy.
