I would have liked to see you sucking down the spinal cord as if it were spaghetti. You know, to make it more real. :P

This should be on the front page. Wonderful rendition. Perfectly deconstructed into its bare essence. It's more tree than tree.

Rocks Have Feelings Too

I like that your lighting "choices" were also believable in this one. Nicely done.

Turn off your mind relax and float down stream

Two things jump out at me.

1) It's not a stream so it's already starting to seem like a shoehorn.

2) Composition. It's very strange. On one hand you have the tree line sloping downward, but the water itself appears to be flowing upward from right to left, settling in the center. I'm not sure what the thinking was here, but I don't get a sense of the down stream effect at all. As a result I'm left with the notion that perhaps you failed at trying to get the shot you really wanted and had to settle for this instead. Now technically this probably shouldn't matter, but I do think voters in general let these sorts of feelings affect their vote. I can say without hesitation that it does for me. If I get the sense that the photographer had to settle for something less than ideal then it affects my vote. I didn't vote in this challenge but I'm guessing had I did I probably would have given it a 6 (mostly due to the exposure/processing).

The overall rendering is nice, but the "natural" lighting isn't believable, IMO. It looks more like a staged photo shoot with mix lighting.

Interesting concept. Surprised that it did well being how the two lands appear separate and neither is invading the others space so there's really no "stranger in a strange land" concept being depicted here.

So full of life. I like how her hair resembles the branches. Stunning.
