Soap Bubble - Gyaban - Macro without bugs or flowers IV
by DustDevil

Comment:
not bad, but compared to Christophe's image it lacks of DOF (I understand that few people own a MP-E 65 lens), clarity and saturation.

Broken Land

Very good shot for itself, especially the bw-conversion. Subject differs much from the original, starting with the less wide lens over to the tree, which is much stronger, and the lack of clouds - this seems to be a wildfire (making me guess whose entry it is). Looking at your image I don't get the mood of loneliness, nature's strength and persistence that I got from the original.

Eyes - 111547

I guess you went for humor points here. Cute image for itself, but for the challenge it doesn't work, only similarity is the composition.

Yet Another Fork
by DistantColours

Comment:
I remembered that image in an instant (it's not so long ago, though). Your POV is a bit too high and your lighting is a bit soft compared to the original, also from a slightly lower angle, which made the shadows of the tines merge and made it necessary to have a wider aspect ration. Overall quite well done for this challenge.

Reflections and Rectangles

Comment:
Same building, different crop or POV, different colors (probably different time of day). Overall good shot, not overwhelming, though.

Tribute to jagar's entry in the "Photo Tutorial" challenge

Comment:
Excellent shot for itself, obviously not very close to John's shot (subject aside, in your shot: POV higher and more frontal, cool toning, more sharpening, more detail in the shadows, deeper DOF)

The Secret Self/Secret Self Portrait challenge

Comment:
Well done in terms of lighting and composition, not so much in terms of model and props. Using Samantha or a Barbie doll as a model makes a huge difference :)

Comment:
Obvious, even without the title, of which shot this is a remake. Composition is almost spot on, but you didn't achieve what the original had: implying fast motion without having the brush blurred - not saying your brush is blurred, it's just that the combination of brush and light looks more natural - must be the tilted view and a longer exposure with more than one light streak.

Tribute to Squeak (Pet Portrait III)

Comment:
Almost as close as it gets, considered this is not Squeak. Only DOF in Yanko's image was deeper (nose was fully in focus, neck almost).

Open Cup Mushroom / e301
by hajeka

Comment:
Good shot, but not as close to the original as I wished for, seems to be a different species of mushroom. Also crop is closer and the shallow DOF leads to a lack in detail, which is the essence of e301's shot
