I like this idea and how you set it up. Very well done. For me the mans hands and suit make this shot cool. Back to bump to 8.

Another great shot with an excellent score. Pleasantly clean & simple and I like the story! I voted it 7.

This probably would have rocked the Soft Focus challenge! The colors are just beautiful. I think a fairly thin white border outlined on the outside with an couple pixel wide black border work well here or maybe it would be too stark. I didn't vote in this challenge.

Beautiful shot and a score north of 6 is always a great thing! Nice composition (especially the foot steps) but overall it feels a wee bit too dark. Possibly if you had the luxury of shooting during a different time of day it might have been brighter? The border choice accents the darkness but on a more positive note, it makes it seem like I'm watching a beautiful movie that was filmed in the South Pacific. Pretty sky & water.

I remember voting on this - 6. This surely is a "leading line" but in a different sense than it is usually thought of in photography! :) Very attractive colors and sky and I like the slant on the horizon. The clouds could use a little brightening IMO (might have been accomplished with slective colors - not sure). Very cool shot that I think might have received a better score in a different challenge.

Just beautiful and a great score to boot. Perfectly lovely golden tones in the sky with such a pleasing gradient. So well done!

I knew this was yours - I'd recognize that little red-head anywhere! I hoped that you would do well with this and in a Free Study I think anything above 50th percentile is a really good finish considering the amazing competition that always goes into them. Congratulations!
