Blue Smartie

Floating smartie? Cool. You might use a diffuser to cut down on the reflection on the smarties. The lighting is a tad hard for my liking. I like the use of glass (or whatever it is) to seperate one of the smarties. Nice. 5

Very interesting shot, and an excellent example of "grain" lending mood to an image. I might have used something to erase the footprints and tire marks on the ground to give it a cleaner feel. It also looks like you need a slight burn on the hands/lower back area where the hands fade into the back a bit. One of my favorites. 9

Wow, simply amazing texture here. I love the detail. Black and white is a great choice. Nice sharpness. I keep supressing the urge to reach in and touch the poppy. 8

Great shot! I lke the shallow DOF that puts the childs face as the background. Good choice as black and white with just the green showing. 7

Strong visual elements, nice color. Might work better for me if the image had a different angle. I want a bit more seperation between the first two crosses. 7

Very clever! Most of the strength here is in the composition. 6

A comon subject, but the strong colors make this image work for me visually. The dark blue of the sky really helps here. I also like the texture of the sand on the ground. 8

Aww! Look at that face! Nice balance, cute subject! Good use of a colored background. for this challenge, I'd clone out the bit of leg showing to make it stronger center balanced. Solid 7.

Whoops! Looks like a slight clone problem.

Nice capture! Great luck here. The daylight makes it overly harsh, but can't be helped.
