Nice take on the challenge .. surfing defines my city too - I haven't entered but was thinking of shooting the same type of shot. Nicely photographed, especially the whites.

Life in Columbus is a Real Zoo

I think this shot meets the challenge in a unique and interesting manner. Nice job getting the catch light in his/her/it's eye :) Not sure about the sepia as it makes your leopard kind of blend in but then again, a personal taste and doesn't affect the good vote I am giving this shot!

Nightmare on my Street

Comment:
Part of rural life - grass fires. I like how the person/child? is walking as if nothing of worth was happening. Well photographed and fits my idea of life in your city/town/whatever. :)

The Bus Stop

Comment:
I really like the dark quality of this photo. The woman at the bus stop looks as if she was always there, part of the design. Interesting and well done.

Didn't use the flash (I know it looks like I did) as it was noon. I also noticed a bit of purple fringing on it. I had the f-stop at 11 - the ISO at 200 and the shutter speed at 1/400.

Maybe the ISO should have been at 100 - I also didn't open it in light room .. might have been able to get rid of that hot spot?

I need to practice more for sure and appreciate the comment as I would like to get better at macro.

gothic look for sure but her expression takes away from the look ... more attitude would have helped .. a little more room on her left too might have added more to the composition ..but nicely photographed and pped.

I have been looking through your portfolio and you are so good! Not just your technical skills (although I wish I could pp as good as you) but your compositions are inspiring. What an amazing eye you have .. the little dancers are the type of photos I would love to have in my portfolio.

I am so sorry about your DQ :(... It, as others are saying, is an excellent photo and as vawendy said - another one will soon come your way.

Congratulations!!
I am so happy that you got a yellow Yo_Spiff - especially since you were such a good sport by giving me an 8 in a challenge where you were doing so well. It pays to be fair, honest voter (not that I am saying that my photo is better than yours because is isn't) but you showed that you vote high even when in the same challenge.
