I didn't much care for it when I voted or when I looked again. Arsenal's come fly with me is awesome though. A world where people's heads turn into giant bug antennas

I totally agree about goodman as well. Artful doesn't fare well around here, which makes me love her stuff that much more.

I'm sorry - I'm easily confused ;) He did 'break free' I hadn't yet had my morning cup of tea, was still befuddled with sleep and a weekend of shooting too late and too early.

I really liked those first two - the Giles image is deeply rooted in my Scottish up bringing so stirred some memories. The plane reminded a lot of 'radio flier' by Keith Carter (see for example //www.edelmangallery.com/carter.htm)

Fromac's shot looks like a scene from Heroes

I liked this coldly, stark and brutal prison shot from MaryO. I thought she conveyed the hopelessness, the "all who enter here" effect nicely.



I also really, REALLY thought this was underscored:

It did well, but IMO, It should have done a Top 5 at least.

This little girl's look just goes right through me, it damn near makes me weep with the angst it conveys, and I faved it.

I am still thrilled to get the comments that my image got. I understand the subjectivity of judging, but when everyone took the time to comment so kindly and constructively, I felt even better about the image than I did when I submitted it. Thanks for the kind words everyone.

i do love Alex's photo but he already has a ribbon and i thought this was about celebrating the hidden treasures. anyway, that's where my favorites in this challenge came from so that's from where i choose. along with Les' brilliant shot, i choose these (in no particular order):

bassbone

jenesis

It's not really my idea, either. De Sousa started it. I mean, really, ribbons are Drew and Langdon's idea!

I agree but I pick my ribbons during the voting because I want it to be anonymous.

Thanks, Jeb :-) I had a similar shot that was my husband's fave from the first time I visited there, but went back to re-shoot with a wider angle to make the fenced-off area look dauntingly long. There's a lot of very interesting stuff to photograph at the old prison, but only some of it lends itself to a chainlink fence dominating the foreground.

I'll return the favor, as this was one of my top picks:

NikonJeb

I love shots like this that lend themselves to imaginative interpretations. I'm pretty sure there are some phantasmagorical creatures in the mist, just below the view we can see.

Also loved bassbone's shot mentioned a couple of times here that didn't finish in the top 20, and this one:

jjbeguin

Again, one that sparked my imagination. A deceptively simple shot that drew me in and made me wonder about the people and the conversation they were having.

I also really liked the one above. Exceptional photo in my opinion.

This one really caught my attention in the Duotone challenge. Just strikingly different. Love it.

My only 10 and top pick for the 'Book Smarts' challenge didn't make the Top 10. :-/ I really liked this one and thought it had a nice connection to the challenge theme.

Must agree with this. As soon as a saw it, I thought "this would be perfect for a Posthumous ribbon".
