Way overprocessed... Violates the spirit of the rules in that you used two exposures. I know you did it in camera but IMHO it shouldn't be allowed. My 2 cents worth... Take it as you will.

Immobility's Relentless Nemesis
by jjbeguin

Comment:
Not exactly what I would call a harsh environment. Wonder why it didn't get towed... There are a couple of what look like dust spots on the windshield that I would have cloned out to give it a more solid black but that's just me.

Farm House in a Barren Land
by candlerain

Comment:
Looks a bit oversaturated but not horribly so. Just enough to make the ground look odd against the blown out sky. I think I would have cloned out the little car next to the house to give it a little more of a deserted feel but that's just me.

Deadly Forest

Comment:
Harsh environment indeed but not really an interesting shot. Nothing to really hold the viewers attention. I think your choice of border color is also a little distracting. I think a darker gray or pure black would have added more to the moodiness...

Cold
by wisie

Comment:
This looks a little awkward to me. I think it is because there is too much foreground and not enough sky. I think you could have benefited from a little more depth in your focus or a focus point that is deeper into the shot. You have what looks like a path leading to an object that is not quite sharp but not quite background blurry if you know what I'm trying to say...

Rude Awakening...
by Bosborne

Comment:
Very simple shot. Nice bokey. Looks a little too blue for some reason but I don't know what time of day it was shot or the background. Just 'looks' too blue...

Circle of Hope

Very fitting shot for the challenge. Harsh environment indeed both physically and emotionally.

Guts
by JPR

Comment:
This is one of those shots that I can't wait to see how it was processed. Did you use HDR? I am a little confused by what appears to be a desaturated sky but a color reflection in the window. Nice entry for the challenge.

Way too overprocessed for my old school taste!

Chanukah Lights
by levyj413

Comment:
I guess it's just not much of a pattern... Or an interesting shot even. You say it's Chanukah candles... Why didn't you include the holder? That probably would have helped...
