To carry on the XPrize marathon; Kids with Toys

Wildcard

Fascinating, confusing, angelic. A hoola hooping angel in an eyeball. I wish I understood this, but am happy just to watch...

Sevlow

Lovely rich tones. And the all important - the toy (the fact that it's a camera is even better!), the feeling of the toy in the hands. That's all he can see, so that's all we can see.

posthumous

O, the joy of big boxes. And hiding in the bottom of the frame. Excellent tones and composition, simply scrummy.

I know it seems like the same people are getting these, but, I swear, it's not like that! My ribbons are simply the bottom scorers of my top scores, in reverse order. I guess the repeat winners of XPrizes have their own styles, and like them...

And now Layers XPrizes

cutout

Dark, yet soft, smooth yet textured, a confusing image that nevertheless draws one in for keeps. Poor Cyrano, he still seems lonely.

posthumous

The layers of light between us and them. How can we communicate, if we can't wade through the honey weighted light?

jmritz

O, clean and pure angles, one two, three. Coming out at us, deep grain and all. What structure can this be, we conjure magical buildings for these layers to support.

And now Free Study XPrizes. Nearly all caught up!

aliqui

A fascinating, warm and soft image. Crisp focus and soft edges combine to make this draw us in. You can almost smell it.

jmritz

You stumble from the casino, pockets and head much the worse for wear, bow tie askew, cummerbund hidden by your shirt, when you look up and see this vision. Grace Kelly sweeps down the steps, pauses and smiles at you, and carries on. You are instantly better, blessed by this earthbound angel.

PapaBob

O, this is stunning. Sometimes a title is descriptive, sometimes it makes no difference, but sometimes it deepens the image. And this does the job perfectly. The threat is both implied and imminent, and yet we willingly go into the maw.

Every one these have been acknowledged here already (with good reason). Instead of showing them again, I picked some among my sevens and eights that I thought deserved a second look (in no particular order):
