Mr. Trooper, the substitute teacher, always freaked me out.

Finally, somebody made me laugh outloud. Im not going to comment on the technical aspects of this photo because in the midst of all the yawn inducing shots in this challenge actual laughter is more than enough to get you a 10. Hopefull more people will think like me and this will come close to ribboning (Unfortunately most people generally don't think like me - but good luck anyway).

wow.... someone is either incredibly intent...or shortsighted. A nice shot, though the focus is a little soft

I think this is a perfect example of voters being a little too anal when it comes to 'meeting the challenge' - I really like the lighting here and the sense of humour is refreshing.

This is far and away the best shot in a very competitive challenge... It's very rare that I unequivocally agree with the winner... but this is one of those times.

This looks like a great capture of a peacock feather, I just wonder whether the crop was too severe, the image is a little small on this site, and You'll probably get marked down for that

This is a fantasitc image, one you should be proud of. I'm a sucker for urban decay and while I'm not sure how it fits the challenge, I can't vote, so what do I care?!

Photo itself is lovely, simple grey border is nice... not so sold on the white around it though.
