What an incredible narrative one could weave around this. Superbly done!

The Petite Sophisticate

With the exception of the fact that the child appears to be wearing lipstick, this is a goreous portrait. A very sweet looking model who looks as though she has bags of character, lovely even lighting that compliments the mood of the photograph perfectly. So far my only 10.

You've Got Spam

This makes for a great candid'street' photograph, but loses marks from me in terms of this particular challenge. Had the woman been engaging in some way with her phone, I suspect I would have scored much higher or had the advert featured a mobile, but as it is the mobile seems entirely incidental to the, admitedly good, photo.

Pointilism Bench

'I hope somebody likes it' - well, I did, and gave it an 8. I can't believe it is languishing down near the bottom of the rankings. The soft focus was lovely, and yes, I do think the noise gave it the feel of a pointilism painting. And I still like it, too!

War Of The Worlds

I had expected to see this much higher in the rankings (I gave a 7)! I liked the idea, the composition, and felt the grain added a positive dimension to the image - so many entries to this challenge appeared to be good photos that had noise added to make them fit the challenge, thus ruining the photo in the process.

I thought this image strong - it certainly evoked emotion in me, and had expected to see it higher in the rankings. I gave it a 7, losing points for the background which didn't entirely seem to fit with the figure (that said I rather liked the abstract feel it gave).

Ruins of a Dying Art.....

Congrats on another first page finish - this was one of my favourites of the challenge, so am really pleased to see it in the top ten.

Lakes

I have to agree with Dylan, I think this would be a great candidate for a panoramic crop, losing a tad over the bottom quarter and possibly some from the top as well (although perhaps not, as you would lose the intensity of the blue). The colours really are lovely.

Wrong, this is SO wrong! And very funny....

Too Late?

This is my favourite of your recent crop of candids - the central character is extremely well isolated from the bustle of the city, but with plenty in the oof backround to give a sense of place. Personally I feel the composition is just right as it is. You have done a good b&w conversion, I am curious as to your method. Good work all round!
