This works for me. Ich habe es gern! The utinsels are sharp, but the pot is just a bit fuzzy. Still, a wonderful, evocative image!

Wonderful stuff! Duotones capture the scultped lines of the expressions better than color would I feel, so this meets the challenge very well. Magnificent lighting and composition. Great photography. 10

Very engaging lines and use of light celebrate and bring out the beauty of the human form. It's refreshing that this is a child--very tastefully done.

Well, I have to say first that I'm a sucker for reptiles and other herps, so you have a head start right there! However, I also really think that duotones bring out the texture of this lovely creature better than color could have, so it matches the challenge very well. Great lighting and composition really make this a winning photo in my book. I'm sure I'll select it as a favorite when the challenge is over. Best of luck!

The way you've used light here is just fantastic. My eye is drawn right to that out house. The fence helps me get there, too. Marvelous tones and emotive feel.

The Memory of Stone

Interesting shot! The object that gets the most focus is the blank wall right in the center. This gives the whole shot a kind of empty, bleak feel that seems appropriate. Still plenty of other interesting things to see, too. Nice photograph!

"Good Morning ... Just Opening"

Marvelous street scene! The duotones really add a sense of universality to this scene. I love the composition. It seems neat and tidy, but with so many things to look at and explore. Wonderful stuff! 10

Winner!

Very nice sense of action and moment captured here. The duotones isolate the sculpture of the jubilance and make it more applicable to humans outside of this occasion.
