Whlie the colors are quite appertizing I find this capture to be too literal and too sharpened. Also, I don't think you had to lift up the tablecloth in the background. You've also got some blown out hightlights on top probably from lighting that is too harsh.

Very interesting scuplture ! I would have preferred if you could have eliminated the tree and structure in the bottom of the photo and provided a more artistic/expressive exposure. The hand at the top has some blown out hightlights. I love the clouds in the background as they give a very spiritual feel to the image.

Nature vs. Nature, Seagulls vs. Surf

Great viewpoint and very interesting shot. Foreground rock is too dark and I don't find toning to be very pleasing although I like the blue cast. Horizon is tilted and the spray hitting the gulls is too blurred and seems to stop above the level of the rocks, as if you caught it at it's tail end. I think you could have also cropped out the top inch so as to eliminate a good part of the background. Still, I like very much.

The toning is great in this shot. Wish the subject matter were more interesting.

The background is much more interesting than the subjects. Too bad you couldn't have used that for the challenge.

Age-old Conflict

Wonderful composition, although I'm not crazy about the format and think a closer crop on the heads would make for greater impact. I don't like the sepia toning and it appears that subject movement could be the cause of the soft focus. That could have been improved with faster shutter speed if your camera is capable. Yet, I really LOVE this picture with its flaws. 8

If It Clashes - Wear It!

I really like the angled lines of the hats and the way the person's head and mannequin's head are juxtaposed. It would have simplified the composition if you could have moved the woman slightly to the right so as to block out the feathers with her hat. The right side of the photo could have been cropped out to get rid of the extaneous yellow hats in the upper right and the white one in the lower right. That would have strengthened the image considerably, I feel, although I'm still confused as to what is clashing here...maybe because I'm a guy and not very fashion conscious. The intentional tilt of the camera adds a good effect. The complexion of the woman is not very flattering probably do to the harsh lighting from your flash(?) and there's a bit too much of a grainy look.

Faux Pas

I really like the concept here but the lighting really needs some improvement. The photo is divided into bottom/top light and dark areas. Also, I think the colors could be spruced up some...maybe a tomato soup in the plate instead of that bland looking apple sauce?

I love the way this boat seems to float in space. It's almost hard to tell if the boat is floating on air or water and it gives the photo a very etheral and surreal feel. Very well done.
