Beacuse of the strong yellow cast in these greens and in the browns, this actually feels more "warm" than cool. Also seems slightly overexposed to me.

Great composition.

The photo is fabulous, and in another challenge I would likely rate it an 8 or so. But intimacy to me implies a connection between two people or critters... Not getting that at all from this.

Blue sky over water

I voted this kinda' low for a few reasons. First, the challenge was to photograph something against the same color background. The shot doesn't really have an object in the foreground. Second, it's out of focus. And third, there is a lot of noise in the sky. Using a tripod might help with the blur. I have noise issues in low light with my camera too -- but there is a lot you can do with various software programs to help fix that.

Love the tulips, the water droplets, and the composition. To me, the background color clashes with the flowers a bit and distracts.

Beautiful sunset and mood. I might have tried to clone out that thin cloud that seems to be piercing his head. Not sure if it would be possible with the complexity of the sky, but I'd give it a try.

Nice shot; good lighting; the scratches on the background are a bit distracting. I might have cloned them out or blurred the background a tad to make them less obvious.

Stunning plant; great DOF. I might have cloned out the black spots in the background along the top 1/3 of the image.

Brilliant concept. Funny. My first inclination was to give it a low score because it's obviously not black and white -- but that's the sheer beauty of it. It is definitely black and white in color. Intellectual photography. Gotta' love it. :-)

Cool lighting and great reflections. I think I might like this better if it were not so symmetrical with the yolk dead center.
