"Hard to tell the connection with the subject of the Challenge - the woman doesn't necessarily look poor, nor do the people around her. That said, it does evoke some emotion and good composition."
In retrospect, I am not so sure if it does evoke good composition. :P
Received:
"THIS IS AWESOME! ALL OTHER IMAGES BEFORE THIS HAVE SUCKED IN COMPARISON! YOU ARE THE GREATEST PHOTOGRAPHER THAT EVER LIVED!"
...oh, wait-- sorry, that was a quote from my positive affirmations tape. This is my real first comment:
"nice lighting, great effect. looks like he has been thinking a long time. 8"

Looks good
Received:
This is a nice idea but way overexposed and out of focus. I'd crop out the surrounding greenery and focus in on the mother and baby. |

First "comment" made was very short indeed:
:)
It was short mainly because of two reasons; a) it was a friend of mine who took the photo and b) I was on it. So it was more of a "good luck smiley" than a real comment...
That was two years ago.. since then I've visited the site from time to time and sometimes voted on challenges but never entered one until now. I don't want to put my first comment received here since the voting in that challenge is not over.
Instead I'm putting here my first real comment made which unlike the other is NOT short:
I'm no expert on photography (quite far from it actually) but I think this photo is both way too unclear and too small. You can barely see at first what's on it (I really had to lean closer to the screen to be able to make it out but maybe I'm just getting old). Also I don't really see how that saying fits the photo.. I see no birds, no stones and no killing. Just a cute silly cat stuck on top of a birdhouse :) Maybe it's waiting for the birds to kill them... but I'd have liked to see some birds on the picture :P
However, it's a really cute cat! :D Looks exactly like my cat :P (and my cat is extremely silly like this one!)

First Comment Made:
Amazing idea and extremely well executed. If I could vote, this would get a 10
First Comment Recieved, by ccraft:
Great idea. I was hoping someone would go with meditation for this challenge. well shot! My only suggestion for future challenges is to try to fill up as many of the 640 x 480 pixels you're allowed to use. You may find looking in past challenges that smaller images rarely do well. Good luck!
Lol, I didn't even know how to properly resize a picture back then.

First comment made (holy crap, IMAGE_ID=847!):
Nice motion-capture, but the picture is missing a focal point... there's nowhere for the eye to rest.
First comment received:
This would be a more dramatic capture if you had taken this at a angle that cut out the wires. Maybe a closer straight up shot.
