Lovely windswept isolation, the fact that the tones and contrast are muted works very well here

Top dof and focus makes what should be an unpleasant shot into a bizarrely appealing one

Great use of soft focus to draw the viewer into the key part of the picture

Opera House in Sepia
by sherpet

Comment:
Ok well I like this shot, but have to say that I prefer the black and white

I am not sure whether it is the clouds or not but there seems to be a bit of haloing in places (ie top of the foremost sail) which the sepia almost brings out more than the B&W

Still waiting for the opera house triptych which given some of the earlier shots would be breathtaking

Day 20 - Lines Against Sky

Comment:
Love the sharpness of the brickwork and the contrast it throws up against the sky and the shadow from the eaves

Simple but very effective

Day 19 - Bottles

OK well if you can discard a shot as good as this for the desat challenge I am very worried!!

Great image but I hope it was set up otherwise I will be very ticked off at the fact that people treat the countryside like a bin

I really like this image, great street capture and contrast and tones are spot on

Day 20 - Bridge

Comment:
Great reflection (which I am always a sucker for). From a personal perspective mght have prefered a slightly tighter crop at the top rather than graded effect, but this is simply because the rest of the image is so tight and on the mark

Great composition on this shot (although I am beginning to worry about your goat obsession!), excellent rules of thirds aplication and the 'dead' space work very well. Not 100% sure about the gradiated white border but that is more one of my own things rather than anything to do with this particular shot
