Natural Proportionby Arnoldo_costa ricaComment: This is way too out of focus to qualify as a competent photograph. The composition is good, however, and the subject meets the challenge. Low marks because of the crappy focusing. |

A Small Space and Lots of Cowsby LN13Comment: This is a lot of cows but you haven't conveyed a sense of small space. There seems to be a lot of space here. Since there is no fence to indicate confinement one has to assume there is more pasture than what can be captured in the viewfinder. There certainly seems to be plenty of land in the horizon. There are cows hanging out at the edges of the frame on either side as well as way in the back near the first horizon line where the grass meets the trees. This leads the viewer's imagination to assume there is more space if we could just see over that hill and beyond the edges. In order to convey a sense of tight quarters you should have come in a lot closer to fewer cows and omited the vast expanse of trees and sky in the background. Disregarding the challenge theme, these cows are too far away to make much of a visual impact other than black and white blobs on a washed out landscape. |

Sandalsby EvilHippyComment: I'm completely at a loss how this illustrates proportion. This shot of feet does nothing to pull the viewer in and the guitar makes absolutely no sense to this composition. The out of focus guitar and the flagstone patio occupy way more space than either deserves as a visual element. |

Gravel or paving stone ?by svellutComment: Without the title I would have assumed these were paving stones so I'm not sure how successful this is in terms of meeting the challenge. The title should not be doing the work of the photograph.
On its own merit this image doesn't work for me. There isn't anything particularly pleasing in the arrangement of the stones and only one of them is focus which leaves most of the picture plane wasted. |

Filling the Dock: QM2 in New Yorkby cmberghoutComment: This is a very pretty skyline shot. Sadly,it seems quite a bit out of focus so a lot of the impact is lost. The challenge has been met because one truly sees how huge this ship is when comparing it to the equally huge skyscrapers. High marks for overall composition and meeting the challenge. |

Salkaby thebigmachineComment: Beautiful, in-your-face animal portrait. My favorite kind of portrait. It doesn't illustrate proportion so much as perspective so you lose points on not meeting the challenge. Outside the limitations of the challenge, it's the best photograph I've seen today. |

Bugs Viewby rwingardComment: This is a pretty, backlit shot of a dandelion. I'm not sure how it illustrates proportion. Cropping that strip of blurry sky at the top, and about 1/4 off the left edge would improve this imensely making it a nearly monocromatic image and letting the yellow really pop. I would lose the green border. |

It's my turn to torture you BIG sister!by NeuferlandComment: Clever use of forced perspective and you did it right by keeping the background very simple. I like the color contrasts. I'm a little suspicious of that line that intersects the frame about two-thirds up but it looks like it could just be the line of shadow from a hilly landscape. |

Untitledby neehaiComment: This looks a bit too much like a car ad. Lose the car and the tiny human and this would be improved greatly. The lone tree in the vast landscape makes the point without the jarring sight of an automobile. It needs more detail in the forergound with the tree perhaps in sillouhette since it is nearly there anyway. |

Hugeby Brooklyn513Comment: Decent framing of the subject matter but it lacks impact due to the washed out colors and lack of detail in the water. That thing coming up behind the ship and the structure at the right are visually distracting. |
