Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. This does well. Exposure composition focus lighting all very good- this feels very Eastern, which in my mind makes it a strong match for the challenge.

Personal: Very stylish looking, but I wish the handle looked more plain, cleaner, smoother.... you know what I mean? It's nitpicky, I know.

Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. This one is good! Composition focus lighting all good, seems a tad underexposed for my taste. I'd like to see a little more contrast, particularly in his face.

Personal: Great idea, funny, I like it!

Yep, that's simple alright. A little too simple for me. Sorry, I can't gain any sort of emotional attachment to this image without more visual information.

Black Cherry
by Jacko

Comment:
Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. This one fits very well. Exposure composition focus lighting all excellent. I love the shadow and I think the "hot spot" on the cherry adds to the photo. I'm sure others won't agree.

Personal: Wouldn't change a thing.

The Simple Life
by mirdonamy

Comment:
Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge, but this one not as strongly as the others for me. Exposure composition focus lighting okay, but the reflections in the cat's eyes is distracting and the crop is too tight for my taste, particularly with the look on the cat's face.

Personal: This looks like a stressed cat, this doesn't say simplicity to me. It doesn't look like much more than a snapshot. It appears to be properly exposed, but by the same token it looks too bright to me. Definitely worth the time to keep practicing!

These are the exact same comments I left for the other cat face shot, because they are so similar, even down to the color of the cat.
