I'm a newbie here, and only have the one photo. It did better than I expected here, seeing as it's of a child and taken with a P&S camera.
But, as I'm trying to learn, if I could get some comments it would be very much appreciated.
Let's see if I can figure out how to post a thumbnail now . . .
Okay - that part was easy !
TIA.

I was going for an "aged" look without using sepia. Thank you so much for doing this!!!

Having spent some time on this and it not doing too well, I'd like any feedback that's available...
Thanks in advance...

Thank you both for your comments.
Hopefully through this site I will learn something about how to take better photographs, although a lot of this seems to come down to post-processing in Photoshop.
Ideally, I'd like to do it all 'in-camera' and have the perfect shot without needing modification, but I guess that's next to impossible? |

I entered this into "Reflections Without Mirrors" and only scored 5.0 though I thought it was a great interesting shot. What caused it to score so low in your opinion?

I would love to get some more ideas on this shot. I personally was very impressed with it. I use it at work as my "professional" shot of my boy, because I think it has a better look and feel, and better portrays his personality than a simple head and shoulders shot from a cheap studio. Why it rated as low as it did, I'm still not 100% sure. Granted, I didn't expect it to ribbon, but I did expect it to be at least high fives or low sixes going in to the challenge. |

Well, I’m not a multi ribbon winner, like Rikki or the good Doc, but I’ll leave some comments, too... in hopes it helps.
The comments are my favorite part of DPC, and I think this is a wonderful tradition DrAchoo started. I know I appreciate any I get.

From Best of 2005
In retrospect, it wasn't my 'best' of 2005, but I was really surprised with the result of 5.169.

| Yes, sorry. I got lazy and didn't put in Fashion/Duotone to the title. I'm gonna comment on those ones first and then get to the others if I can. |

Hey guys :) I think before this gets out of hand, I think the good Doc was asking for just the recent challenge entries that came in at rollover last night. So this would be for Fashion and Duotone.
Sorry but we have to keep it a tight ship ;) |

Here's one for ya. I didn't get many comments in the challenge. As so many people say...I thought this one met the challenge and would have done better.
Thanks

| OK, I'm closing shop this week. That's gonna be a lot for me to get to. Thanks to the others who tag along and make their own comments, I'm sure everyone appreciates it and it's always great to get more than one view. |

Wondering how much better I would have scored if there were no contrails.
Also, maybe the blue is a bit too saturated?

Scored 5.187, any input appreciated. Got some very good comments, and a wide range of scores from a single 1 to three 10's.
