Technically a great pic, but the perspective of the camera is above the table and not on the table/table top level. I would have given a higher score if the POV was table top instead of from above...

The Village at the Ends of the Earth

I really like the use of a fisheye in this image. The colors are brilliant and the clouds give the sky visual interest. I like how you have just enough of the bow to give the viewer your POV. This is a cool pic.

Great character study. Well focused to see all of her features. Composition is tight and well thought out to capture the cards in the reflection of her glasses. Well done.

Curious Cows

This image just makes me laugh, I love it. The composition is perfect for the point of view. Great focus. Great capture as each cow seems to have it's own "expression."

Hot air balloons over tulip fields
by william88

Comment:
The composition is great, the rows of tulips leads the viewer to the horizon. All of the colors are fantastic; the greens are rich, the yellows and reds of the tulips are brilliant, the balloons are brilliant and compliment the flowers, and the blue tones of the sky are great with just enough clouds to add character to the sky. I like this image because everything is sharp/focused and the colors are so vibrant. There is a lot of visual interest in this image that I think compliment each other. I compliment you on your keen eye for composition, and I'm sure making the effort to be at the right place and right time to capture this image. This is one of my favorites of this challenge. 10

Beach Runner

Comment:
Comparing similar dog images, I like this one the best. I like that the dog is well focused, and that you did catch him mid stride. The beach setting doesn't distract at all compared to the other dog shots, it provides a nice backdrop where the dog "pops" out in the photo. Nice DOF in blurring out the grasses in the background. This is a great shot.

I like the total blur for the abstract quality.

Flying at low shutter speed

Comment:
I like this image for the abstract quality. Nice use of slow shutter to blur the birds to show motion, but what I like is that the background is totally blurred, giving that abstract feel. Nice job.

EQUINE POWER
by megryan

Comment:
This one strikes me as the best of the bunch. Obviously meets the challenge. The composition is great, the entire image is nicely focused. What I like is how you post processed it to colorize the number 3 horse to keep that horse and rider the subject of the image. The viewer is drawn into the story that is told by the image, great context. Great pic. 10
