Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. This one fits nicely. Exposure composition focus lighting all very nice.

Personal: Love the photo. The border is overbearing for my tastes. I'd like to see more of that "screen real estate" used up by the photo itself!

So Inclined

Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. This fits nicely. Exposure composition focus lighting all very good. Not sure if it's an optical illusion or not, but the bottom two sets of leaves almost look doubled or blurred.

Personal: Very nice to look at, good contrast. I like it!

Innocent
by Terrynixon

Comment:
Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. Exposure and composition both good, focus is off. Lighting seems good, but the grain/blur detracts. Image lacks detail and doesn't make use of the full 640 pixels allowed.

Personal: This looks like a snapshot, and a blurry one at that. More practice will help! The date might be something your camera does automatically, I would look at finding out how to turn that off.
