Lucky to have each other... Tribute to De Sousa's "Love is... Flying into your arms"

I like the concept. The lighting seems a bit harsh, which works for you in that you captured a great shadow of the woman, doesn't help her legs/feet stand apart from the stone wall.

My neighbor's garden

Comment:
The image is quite small and I'm not understanding the connection to the theme "lucky" unless you're trying to express envy about your neighbor having a garden.

Yipee, I struck gold!

Comment:
The expression and movement do represent "Yippee" but the figure behind the subject was confusing to me at first, as it almost looked like a wrestling match or something. I would like this more if the second figure wasn't in the frame. The motion adds to this, but it seems there is camera shake as well, which doesn't add to it.

Money Bags for Prosperity

Well shot. I guess I had never heard these referred to as money bags or knew that they represent prosperity, but I'll take your word for it. Great DOF and focus on the subject.

Clever interpretation. I will never again be able to unwrap a kiss without thinking I'm undressing it.

Rain after a long Summers Drought

I love the abstract quality of this. Great focus on the stationary drops, great movement. Meets the challenge in my eyes.

Unlucky wallet

This might have received a higher score if it were in focus. The soft focus doesn't really add to the photo.

Its pointless I've been framed

Comment:
Punny, but the soft focus doesn't contribute to this photo.

First, both faces of the subjects are obscured, and not in a good way. The poses don't seem natural and the lighting is creating unpleasant shadows. I think this would have been better had there been a plainer background, natural lighting or off-camera flash, and some better actors.

Edit due to my sucky spelling

I like the concept of this. Anecdotally, last night while I was half way between awake and sleep, I was thinking about geese laying golden eggs in the forest where no one could find them, and wondering where that reference came from. It came from here of course :)
