this is fantastic. I wish the front acorn was more in focus, but that doesn't detract from an otherwise solid shot.

you should really try to utilize the full 640px allowed.

this was the very first tree that came to mine when I read the challenge. I even tried shooting it a couple times, but didn't get anything worthwhile.

I like your composition here, although there's a bit too much blank sky for my tastes. your dodge work on the tree is fairly obvious, too. not necessarily a bad thing, but it is noticeable.

Horsetooth?

Man, I haven't been there since my college days. I loved it up there.

Sorry, no constructive comment...I was just surprised to see this.

Excellent elk shot. You caught him in such a perfect pose.

More importantly, congrats on top-20 finish. That makes three of us from Colorado in the top 13! Maybe we can start giving those dang Icelanders some competition :)

Awesome x 2 !!

Well, at least you finished above 6, although we all know if deserved much higher. I'm totally shocked at that 1 and 2 vote. I'm off to suggest a "Twin Portrait" challenge now :)
