Wooooo Whooooo! You did it !

Remarkable ingenuity is what makes people think to themselves:
"Why didn̢۪t I think of that".

Congratulations on this excellent Idea. I̢۪m happy to see you win the ribbon.

I knew it was just a matter of time.

This is not a bad shot as far as the composition goes. With his face looking down, it gives me the feeling that he has just been defeated. I think the color in this actually takes some drama away from the shot.
If you tone this one into an almost black/white with a hint of brown it really brings out a strong mood and would look pretty good in a frame surrounded by some other shots of him where his face can be seen.

This looks just miserable cold. I was wondering where this was (without looking at the title). The rounded tops of the ice on the tree mad me think it was in a cold fog. Then I read the title of the shot. I actually like the green tinge from the lamp in this and I really like the iced over and burned out lamp on the far right. An interesting place. Too cold for me.

Congratulations. The rich color just jumps out on this.
Very nicely done.

Way cool! I like this just as it is. I would love to see version #2 with a little grit and rust. Still a strong 10.

This it my kind of shot! I really like everything about this. The color is natural and not pushed. I like the blown out detail in the window. I find it difficult to incorporate that technique into a photograph and still maintain aesthetic quality at this level. I'm a big fan of old rusty broken junk and wooden planks. I like a photo that can strategically break the rules and defy the usual principals of composition. Excellent in every way! 10

This is great!
I like the muted colors. The soft light from the window in a shot like this, is very difficult to hold detail as well as you have managed here. Impressive work. 10

Wow! This is a great shot. I like the soft color and the perspective you decided to shoot it from. Beautiful crisp detail and natural placement of buckets and other elements to keep this unstaged. 10

Great colors here! The light is just a little harsh on the grill. I might have defused it just a bit for this. I like the tinge of rust and the grass on the bottom of the frame. Nice shot.
