Technical: Fits the challenge. Exposure focus and composition all good, lighting is even.

Personal: Nice shot, but not very compelling to look at (flat lighting, few colors)

Time is money

Comment:
Technical: Fits the challenge but not very original. Composition and focus are good, lighting and exposure crete a mood but still look a little too dark for my taste.

Personal: I like the blue tones. I wish the front watch was a little easier to see.

Technical: Fits the challenge after a fashion- that takes some thought ;-). A little underexposed, composition fits the subject, focus is good, lighting is flat.

Personal: Pretty creative, some might not get it. I think you're reaching :-)

Prospecting
by Antithesis

Comment:
Technical: Fits the challenge only because of the title. Some actual prospecting in the shot would have strengthened that relationship. Exposure composition focus and lighting all excellent, beautiful photograph.

Personal: Maybe it's just me, but I don't equate prospectors with milky blue water and fantasy type landscapes- to me this doesn't fit the challenge.

Danger & Treasure
by Adrian Tung

Comment:
Technical: Fits the challenge. Exposure/lighting is obviously to acheive effect, but in my mind it fails. Focus good, too hard to tell if composition is good or not.

Personal: Creative but not well executed.
