eight ball corner pocket

I can see that you shot low to the table and can just barely see the eight ball in the back of the image. There is another pool shot in this challenge that might provide some insight on how to better present this idea.

It is really tough to see what you have taken here. To me it looks like a light house at night and you used zoom to present a changing persepective. Even if that is not the case, the concept is very interesting and shows you were trying something different and creative. However, if you had taken the picture around dusk or just a little later, the detail of the main object would have been visible and the picture more interesting.

I think you really captured the look the designer intended. Any other perspective on this image would not have worked.

This is like looking at two periods of time at the same time. The castle could almost be a considered a distraction from the flow of the road towards forever. Instead, it is a pleasant surprise for a quick visit then the hill brings you back to forever.

So cool. There is a reflection in the middle just below the table reflection that looks like a head with a very real looking face.

I'm surprised how low the score was on this image. The composition is very effective at telling the story you intended, the lighting is extremely good, and the focal point and shallow depth of focus could not have better executed. I gave this an 8 and felt guilty rating it that low. Nicely done.

Edited for typo ;-(

This is one of the strongest machinery entries in this challenge. The play off between the curves of the bucket and the rectangles in the background are wonderful. I also love how the arm of the bucket is the most saturated color in the image.

Parked behind bars

I have to bump this to a 10 upon further reveiw. I love the alignment of the trucks and the mix of color. A couple of minor tweaks you may want to consider. First, try straightening the image so the "bars" are vertical. Second, crop the image to remove the partial "bar" on the left. It might even be worthwhile to crop most of the white truck out and clone out the rest once the restrictions of basic editing are done.
