Composition/Content The base the beads are on is dirty and not square to the frame. Very distracting to the image. The idea is not bad, just not pulled off very well. It might have been better if the entrance to the maze was not so long and then your finger could be on top of the base, that way the table top would not be distracting.
Challenge Does not meet the challenge. Waldo is a person that is hard to find in a picture.
My Opinion Focus and lighting is ok, but I would have cleaned my subject first and framed the subject better, at least in post processing. I would also try to meet the challenge a little better.

Compostition/Content Great composition. I really like the way you arranged the manequins stacked up in the corner. Great use of props: hats, pillow and material. Really meets the challenge well.
Lighting Absolutely fantastic lighting. I would like to know how you set up the lighting. The shadows on all of the figures really define the shapes yet none of the shadows are too dark. I also like the light areas behind the hat on the left and behind the two heads on the right. The lighting made this shot.
Camera Work/Technical Good exposure and focus. Nice camera angle.
Post Processing It's difficult to tell what caused the grain in the image. I like the way the grain and the sepia give the image an old look. It is a strange looking grain when I zoom in on the image. I don't know what caused it. I tried highest compression and lowest quality and still couldn't get the grain in my image to look like yours, so I don't think it was the compression.
My Opinion I wouldn't want to see the image without any grain because it adds to the look of the image, but I would like to see what it would look like with maybe half the grain that it has now. Really great setup and execution. I ran your image through NeatImage and is really cleaned up the grain, you might try it.

Composition/Content Good imagination in viewing the farthest handcuff through the near one. Nice and simple image makes it interesting. Both the angle and the perspective combine in a unique way to present this image. Solid white background was a good choice.
Lighting Good lighting and contrast.
Camera Work/Technical Great use of DOF for effect. Good exposure.
My Opinion I like your imagination and expression in this image. I would like to have seen slightly less angle. I also wonder what the image would look like if both handcuffs were in focus. Very nice job.

Composition/Content Nice clean shiney shot with good color, simple but yet with detail. Good tonal balance. Nice geometric lines across the image with stops at each verticle. Nice detail in the reflections.
Camera Work/Technical Excellent focus and exposure. The camera angle is what makes this image interesting.
My Opinion Can't fault the image. All aspects are right on. Great contrast and use of black, white and red. Good imagination and execution. Excellent shot.

On Reflection I'm Waldo

Composition/Content Nice composition with the reflections in the various surfaces. Almost a puzzle to figure out for the challenge. Meets the challenge well. That's the best part about it. Nice angle on the reflection of the sun behind the cloud. The image itself, without considering the challenge, is busy and difficult to tell what it's about.
Camera Work/Technical I would like to have seen the shot zoomed in more to eliminate much of the bottom part of the picture and the camera angle up a little higher.
My Opinion Meets the challenge well but the overall image is a little dark at the bottom and busy. Most of the shots that do well in this forum are fairly simple.

the yellow is great but the lighting on one side is distracting.
