LOL Kosta, if you wanted a self portrait in stone you could have used a can of spray paint, you didn't have to do the Flintstone thing of a rock and a chisel. =o) Very cool shot!

Lace Macro

Hi Rob.

I've sat here looking at this photo trying to decide what to say about it. First off it doesn't do much for me. The macro itself is good with lots of detail and it does fit the challenge well, there is definately repetition in this photo so what is it I don't like about the photo? I think it lacks color and or tones. Possibly a little color behind the lace or try photographing it away from the window to get some tones and shadows into it.

As it is now you got a cool building ground for some neat abstracts by playing with color and tone and I seriously would play with it some. It definately was able to hold my attention long enough to sit here since last night trying to figure out what I didn't like about it and how to improve it.

Very interesting image definately fits the challenge well. You may want to crop in tighter on it. The one thing I do notice about it is it seems to be soft in spots but as I look closer I realize the yellow seem to be washed out slightly on the folds and it has given it that soft appearance.

Very good and creative idea.

gutter

Very good perspective, excellent detail and texture. Very good use of dof, only thing is the gutter draws your eye the whole way from bottom to top and I feel almost like there should be something at the end of it.

As it is right now it is a bit dull and needs something more added to it, even if it was merely a leaf or a bit of trash at the end of the gutter.

Share your personality with your photo, give it a title and let a bit of personality shine in the photo rather than letting it nameless.

Your idea here is very good, it would make for some good photojournalism but it is to soft. You need to sharpen it up a bit. Tools was the challenge subject and the tool in this case appears to be a baseball bat, and it should be the main subject not a blurry little area of the photo.

Looking at the photo in a fast glance many voters would have given you a low score not seeing the baseball bat. Might I strongly suggest you don't use "Untitled" as a subject. I feel a photo without a title is missing part of it's personality as well as part of the photographers personality. As I look at it I would easily title it something like "Meet my brother the Louisville Slugger" Simply knowing most people know that a Louisville Slugger is a bat, it would make the average voter stop and realize there was a bat in the photo and that is what you wanted the voter to recognize as the tool.

Mothers of the World

The statue itself needs a little more defination, as it is lacking shadowing and depth. However the palm tree behind it makes up greatly for it. The tree gives the entire statue an appearence of a "halo" around the mother and babe much like many of the old masters have painted the MaDonna.

Your composition is very good and you might improve on it overall but cropping in at the bottom and cutting out part of the base. There seems to be a line almost created by the bottom of the trees and the placard of the statue. Cutting that little bit out might improve a little on it.

Overall it fits the challenge well. Nicely done.

Beautiful photo, the sunset adds so much drama to the photo. The trees on each side make for a wonderful framing. Your reflection is near perfect as well. In all honesty you did a fantastic job on this. Well done.
