seeking perfection

The edges should have had more attention. I mean a more precise crop and some perspective correction. Also, it's a bit grey, lacks contrast. The idea worths more.

Keeping Nature In Line

Comment:
Showing the work of mankind ("order") ruling over the once natural forest ("chaos") is a great point.
What's the purple color cast?

Let the photo speak instead of he title. This would make a nice environmental portrait.

Naturally Ordered

Strange color artifacts, but still, it's pretty nice.

Blackberry Plum Jam

Comment:
What grabs my eyes is the plank, because it's light. Then, of course, I can see the rhythm of jars. Maybe it can be corrected with a slightly modified POV.

A momentary lapse of reason

Comment:
I really like this. The score is, however, lowered because it's not connected to the theme of the challenge.

Bolts

Comment:
The bolt is centered but the composition is not. Some front-focus. Still an interesting capture and a strong start, keep submitting!
(and hey, I haven't commented in like a year so there must be something in it that caught me)

Lonely Seas
by IznastY

Comment:
My first comment was not detailed enough, sorry. I try to correct it now. I'd mask three different areas on the original shot (water, sky, ship) and apply different postprocessing techniques on them (curves on sky to enhance the blues and brighten the clouds, mostly dodge on ship, mostly burn on water if any). But before anything, I'd level the sea and clone out the sensor dust spots.
I just checked your expo. While 1/4000s at ISO400 seems equivalent to 1/1000s at ISO100 (apart from noise) I found that longer expo almost always means more detail in shadows. You know what I mean, instead of dodging at PP, try to use slower shutter during shooting.
