Out of the Blue

Comment:
Reflection is distracting on the blue sphere. Might have tried wearing dark gloves, moving the camera down a bit more to be behind the stone, or even cloning out the reflection of your hand and camera. A neat collection of stones for this shot.

OUCH! Those thorns look nasty! Great eye to find a natural subject for the challenge, and I like the angle. I might have bumped up the color/contrast a bit to bring the yellow out a bit more.

Flowers seem a bit out of place in the snow, and the whole shot seems dim.

Beach Meltdown

Clever. I love the way you made the crayons into little people! The dof seems just a bit too shallow, since you can clearly see a line of sand that is perfectly focused. I also might like to have seen this a bit more brightly lit, since the idea is that the orange guy melted in the sun. Extra points for creativity and setup!

I can tell that you were using a shallow dof here, but the removal of the color makes it all sort of fuzzy and hard to figure out. The butterfly too seems overprocessed and unnaturally colored.

Hmm.. I hadn't thought about offsetting the main subject from the color. Interesting. This little guy/gal doesn't look so happy about the setup though!

Love the simplicity of this shot. The colors are a bit dull for me, but still a great shot.

That car seems so out of place in this shot. What a busy street you've captured here, and a clever title with the way you've chosen to color this one. Nicely done.
