I love this amber cast that the light has. Really a nice shot. The negative space is one of the things I like most with night/low light/flash shots......well done!

This has quite the surreal look the evokes an almost voyeuristic feel. It's definitely got that "Slice of Life" aura we're going for in this project. It makes an ordinary scene interesting with that lens.

This is an absolutely wonderful entry, and both a blessing and a curse for your first shot out of the gate.

Know now that you *can* do this, so take heart, but always keep this in mind *when* you get smacked around by the voters in the future.

For the record, I gave this a 9 'cause I thought this was a spectacular entry!

Good luck in future challenges and welcome to The Coliseum!!!

This is *really* pretty!!! Nice find! I love the reds and the dusting of snow for accent. This is really an exceptionally nice seasonal shot.

Congrats on a Top 10 and a truly fine image. I rather liked this during voting as I had to look at it for a bit. At no time didi ti occur to me that it remotely DNMC, but it puzzled the heck out of me. I gave it a 7 and that stands! LOL!!! Congrats again, Jeffrey!

Oh, this is soooooooo bad!

I have cats, and they just aren't good with Christmas trees!

Do NOT use tinsel if you have cats....you don't want to know why.

This little devil is just terminally cute!

These are the moments that make me know there's more good than evil in the world and that we are loved. Great DOF........I love it than you can see the look on her face through the softness. She looks to be quite the angel. Thank heaven for little girls! (Mine's now 12 going on 40! LOL!!!)
