Cats Eye

My top cat this week! I love the composition. I would have liked to see more depth of field so that the frontal part of the nose was not quite so blurry. I think you might have lost some definition in making the file size smaller or you cropped down from a larger image after lowering the resolution. This is just my guess. Still, wonderful photo. 9

Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

My top dog this week! I love the compostion. It stood out from the rest in that the entire frame is filled with the dog colors and doesn't have a distracting ill composed background or what I consider a ridiculously perfect set up with a sheet and lighting that usually renders an unnatural image of mans best friend. The dog, of course, is very cure, and the tennis ball is excellent in the foreground. I love how the wisps on the end of the tail seem to almost blend into the shredded part of the ball. I would print this and frame it (if it was my dog) Excellent job. 9

Beautiful photo, very relaxing and contemplative. THe DOF and lighting are perfect in my opinion. I would crop slightly differently to rermove the small dark tree on the left and the cut off tree on the right. Wonderful shot, one of 4 of my 10's this week.

Awesome picture! One of 4 of my 10's this week. The white and blue colors are excellent and the fact that you threw the bread up to the bird added tons to this picture. The composition is awesome. The only thing I would change, but I'm sure it isn't possible at this point is the cut of wing of the gull in the background. Nice job!

Gone Fishin'

Splendid shot! One of 4 of my 10's this week. I love the composition -- the way the straightness of the stick comes nicely out of the bottom of the curved line of rocks. I like that the boy is looking down at something on the muddy ground (for small wildlife perhaps) and not at you or out at the water as would be the case in a typical shot. The one thing I don't like is the color you chose for what I assume was a duotone process. However, I can't decide on what color would have been better. Perhaps something a little less red but still similar. Maybe a tritone. I would play with some variations. It is, of course, still quite excellent how it is and one of my favorites. I have a feeling that you'll be receiving a ribbon this week.

very beautiful photo. One of 4 of my 10's this week. Composition is excellent. The slow shutter speed is excellent in catching the blurred motion of the water in the stream. I like the blue tone. Was this done in duotone or tritone?

Square Feet

this is the most interesting shot for this challenge and one of only a few photos that actually met the challenge rule that the subject of the photo be the square. Unfortunately, I'm sure a lot of people wont realize this and will not understand why your background is blurry. I think the composition is wonderful and I like how the rusty orange and red of the shoes compliment each other. One of my favorites. I hope everyone else likes it as much as me. 10

Awesome shot. I would like to know how you got it to look like a pen and ink drawing. That solid black on the left is the only thing that bothers me. A great photo. Makes me think of superman.

great composition! especially with the border about the same width. A good idea that I was suprised to see was the only one of its kind. Nice work
