The problem I see is that this could just as easily be a rotated image rather than the catapiller being upside down, the colours are quite nice but could maybe do with a little more saturation, I would also like to see a bit more light on the leaf that the catapiller is on, focus is good and DOF is nice too.

Flying through the sky.

Marcus :)

Like the shot mate, one of your best to date, I am not voting on this challenge just commenting but would not vote anyway as I know this is yours.

I would have given you a 6 or 7 for this I love the drama in the sky and the motion blur on your body as you jump really adds to the image.

In my upside-down world

Nice colours in this one, whilst I know snails are often found upside down on leaves like this there's nothing in the bg to really emphasise the fact that he is infact not simply rotated, very nice shot though :)

Well you have had me looking at this for a while! :)

I'm still not sure if I like it or loathe it though, I can't quite put my finger on what has me so purplexed.

I know the monopod or whatever it is the guy is on is a bit distracting and had he just been leaping that would have looked awesome, the clutter around the base of the pole is also a bit distracting but it's the composition I feel has me the most puzzled - the jury is out on this for now ;)

Church Upset

Interesting shot, although I am not sure it's that appealing.

I love the rock or slate that runs through the middle that has a lot of interest but the reflections look a bit odd, I am assuming this is a macro of a puddle / pool which is pretty cool but something about the shot just doesn't quite work making it feel awkward. If I work out what it is later I will come back and comment on it.

A Photographer's Perspective

And another rotated / flipped image.

A really nicely taken shot but I would have marked it dowm to a 3 or 4 as I really do not think that flipping a standard picture was what the challenge was about personally, can you imagine how boring it would have been to look at 130+ flipped / rotated images?

Why there are so many purely flipped / rotated images in this challenge I am not sure, personally I would have rated this as a 3 because whilst it looks a pretty good shot I don't think flipping a standard image is really what the challenge was about.

Falling

Not sure about this one, it kind of looks faked but I can see how it would be easy to take this shot as well. I don't really like the "superimposed" look to it and the colours look a little red to me.

Good idea though and much more original than the upside down reflections of landscapes that are all over this challenge like a rash.

Upside Down Tackle

Comment:
Unfortunately I do not see this as upside down, he is on his butt but that's horizontal not vertical ;)

Like the interaction of the 2 guys in the back right though they add a lot to the image.

Cloudy Water

Another neat reflection with dramatic sky and nice composition.

My only gripe would be the skyline is a little uninteresting against that dramatic sunset, a little more going on there would have made this a cracking image.
