Contemplation

I love this scene, I love this photo. I love the stark contrast between the sculpture, the room, and the people. I love the triple play on wods, here I am contemplating a picture of people contemplating a sculpture of someone contemplating.

I've got to say it again, I love the whole set up, the coloring in the people's clothes vs. the greys of the surroundings. This is a personal fave of this contest. Exceptionally well done.

Very creative use of focus to make an interesting perspective on a pretty, but possibly boring scene. It would have been so easy to take a "snapshot" of this place, but you chose a creative and unique way to show it. Good job.

I would be scared to be standing there, if that really is cracking ice... Very good capture.

Pristine reflection... it's so clear... Outstanding! Wonder how it would look composed without the grass in the foreground? Good capture.

I wish this wasn't black and white, especially if there were some bright yellows and reds in here. I think it could have had even more visual impact if it were in color.

Nice and sharp. The lens distortion adds to the unique perspective.

Shades of Grey

I appreciate the misty look and feel you were going for... however, I think something, particularly one of the rock faces should have been in better focus.

Too much USM? The edges of the cactus in the foreground look like they are glowing.

Too much noise/artifacting, especially on the people. :( Interesting scene.
