nice moment of action captured, but way too much sharpening was done to this image.

Come On, Strike!?!

Comment:
nice sense of anticipation, but it would have had more impact at the moment that the pins were struck

neat capture. I particularly like how the bird is framed so symmetrically against the tree

Duct Tape Christmas

kind of a boring picture, but it made me laugh and fits the challenge very well. I like that the home owner was spirited enough to duct tape up a holiday message, but couldn't be bothered enough to make it any more festive.

Do you Hear what I Hear?

nice shot and a good compositional idea, but it is suffering from some technical flaws. There is a lot of noise in the shot and some annoying vertical lines right by the earlobe. It would have also been better to take more care with the hair, to remove the stray strands that are in front of and behind the bulb earring. The earring itself is somewhat crowded in the frame, with the tip almost touching the bottom of the image. I'm not sure about the crop - I like the earlobe, but not the cut off ear hole. I would have liked to have seen either the whole ear or just the lobe. All in all, it is a pretty cool shot, but could have been improved.

I would have liked this better cropped to remove the stripes at the bottom of the frame. The dog on its own make a nice composition
