I couldn't quite figure this out. I couldn't figure out a focal point or what your title was hinting at, or anything. Sorry.

I like the brown haze of this photo. I gave it a 6.

I actually gave this a 5. I liked the brightness of the spot of blue on the label compared to all the neutral background. I saw it as an unpretentious sort of still-life.

Really good street shot. Very subtle. Maybe too subtle for a challenge unfortunately. People don't tend to spend a lot of time looking for subtleties when they vote.

I didn't vote on this but it would have gotten at least a 6 or 7 from me. It shows a very good eye for seeing art in the mundane. The focus could be a little sharper in the rusty area, perhaps, but overall I think it really works. I think I'll put it in my favorites because it so refreshing from most of what I saw in this challenge (I didn't see everything which is why I didn't vote on this).

Lost.

I gave this a 6. Technically it has problems (mainly the subjects face being out of focus). But I think it works in a weird way. The background is so confusing the it is impossible to really get a handle on what the viewpoint of the camera was. The out of focus face kind of separates the subject from the environment that has him baffled. Since the title is "Lost" this photo works in the way it was intended.

This placed pretty good but I think it should have done much better. BTW, ignore my stupid suggestion from during the voting. For one thing, I didn't mean the row of paintings (which add a sense of place to the photo) but the paper things at the top, over the paintings. I experimented with this just be scrolling the screen up and it actually does not have the effect I was suggesting. The photo is great the way it is. One of my favorites.

This got an 8 from me. I love that all the model (you?) is wearing is glasses.

Of course you had to crop their heads otherwise you wouldn't have captured the older girl's protective grasp of her sister's hand or the defiant hand on hip pose (implied by the position of her head and shoulder) of the younger girl. Lovely! I want to see more like this on DPC.

Or, to put it in English, you lack an interest in the image. The image doesn't have any feelings on the subject.
