| I'm shocked at how poorly this one fared. It was and is one of my absolute favourites from the challenge. Very very well done, and excellent interpretation of round. Just brilliant! I hope you are proud, and pay no mind to the score, it means nothing with respect to your photo. |

sorry for my distraction :) |

| I loved this one and the circle around the lighthouse is enough to say round to me, loved the tone and the feel of the photo, should have done a lot better |

| Tough exposure here, and the DPC rules really limit what you can do about it. Composition is excellent although the sun brings my eye away from the lighthouse. |

| Unique framing! The roundness is all in the framing of the lighthouse, but the curves of the trees remind us what the theme of the photo is as well. What a great find and nice shot. |

| The lighting in the background is very harsh but it does seem to set a mood. |

| This image feels a little too grainy and grey for my liking. I see the round apples(I think they're apples) in the tree above but I don't feel like it's a main theme of the picture. Great job not blowing the highlights shooting into the sun. |

| Cool effect, in general, I like this pic. (Just making sure - is the round part the hole we are looking through to see the lighthouse or the lighthouse itself?) IMHO, I don't think the sun up top helps, a manual crop w/o it looks better to me - the sun draws my eyes away from the high key lighthouse. 6 Rob the Swash |

| For this topic, I think a different and smaller cropping would help focus on the subject |

| This seems very grainy, maybe that is intentional. I like the focus of your shot! |

| Noisy is an understatement for this picture. Has it been oversharpened? The texture of the trees is very disturbing. Nice light though, well exposed. Doesn't really explore 'roundness' for me. 6 |

I really like the photo, but it doesn't quite meet the challenge to me. I will give you the benefit of the doubt, but really would have liked to see the lighthouse as the feature of the picture -- not just some part of it that the title has to make. It's just a thought, but maybe you could have cropped the image so that the lighthouse was the main focus with the trees around it, or possibly you could have put the lighthouse on a third. One feature of the photo that was offputting was the sunlight pouring through the trees too intensely.
If your camera is good enough (I don't know what camera you have) then you should have got the resolution to just use the lighthouse as though the trees in the bottom left corner were the border. |

| Should have cropped the sun on the top for a better composition.... |

| beautiful shot! two sources of light balance very well. would probably work better with longer exposure and higher ISO. 6 |

| A very good photo, though i find the relation to round is rather 'weak'. 6 |

| I fear this shot will suffer from a lot of 'I can't see the roundness' comments. Well, I can see it. Nice shot, great exposure. Bit of noise but it's a challenging situation. Good feeling to it. |
