Unfortunately, this cliche was often attempted this week which will lower the scores of all attempts. Yours was the best of the breed. Nicely executed. I like DOF. Levels are good except the left is a little hot.

As a pilot and frequent business traveler, I can really appreciate the serendipity involved in taking this photo. Nice composition. B&W was a nice choice. This was among my top five picks this week!

Beautiful photo. Wonderful colors. Love the reflected light. Great composition.

Not sure I see the relevance to the theme, or I would have rated it higher.

This picture made me smile. Thanks. I rated many pictures this week low because they didn't reflect the theme very well. This is a happy exception. 8

Stronger than Steel

Beautiful shot. I am not sure how well it will do in the voting because the poweer of the picture isn't evident in the thumbnail. But full size -- Wow! I might have prferred a bit more contrast. DOF with this subject is pretty difficult but the soft focus bugs me a little. But without it, the thread would be less impactful. Hope it does well. 7

Strength is in the Cards

I considered a similar shot but rejected it in favor of something else. My cards weren't strong enough to hold up what I had in mind. :) Well done. Good luck with the submission.

I really like the composition and how well the photo fits the theme. Colors and contrast work well. The pose lends quite a bit of tension which I like. Nicely done. 7
