Stunningly simple and effective. Great challenge entry.

Free as a rain drop

I'm probably just pissed that this is such a technically amazing photograph, but I'm not really feeling the challenge theme in this. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, but I feel like maybe this one should have just been saved for the portfolio.

Foot Loose & Fancy Free

I think if I want to buy that the subject is really relaxing and away from the struggles of life, I don't want to be reminded that she has a dirty pool that needs taken care of.

I'm definitely not into the border. I like this much more as a painting than as a photograph, and so it seems like most of the weight is carried by some sort of plugin. I could certainly be wrong, but that's just what I get from the image.

Freedom never comes without a cost

This is frightening. The little bit of grain on the image almost seems to me to be lack of resolution and not a photographic technique, but otherwise a very intriguing challenge entry.

This is too much of a stretch on the challenge topic. The image quality is also distracting.

A very powerful image. You lose me a bit on the left side, especially with what seems to me to be unnecessary space. I feel like the lack of focus on the right side is enough of a negative (in the photographic sense, not the emotional one) composition without the space on the left. I don't entirely get the tape-like piece, but I can definitely give you the benefit of the doubt with the rest of this stunning composition. The seemingly inexplicable color cast on the body is awesome and really adds another dimension to this photo. All in all, a great challenge entry.

I'm trying, but I just don't buy this for freedom. I also really dislike the border, as I don't feel it adds anything to the composition and otherwise just doesn't really make sense.

Escape

In order for me to buy this image as an escape, I think I have to feel trapped, but I don't. I also have trouble finding a focal point at which to start viewing this photograph.
