I Tawt I Taw an Elephant!

This challenge is awash with Melbournians... great colour and juxtaposition of statue and man. Processing has created some haloing, which will hurt with the voters... also feel the crop, both top and bottom is going to cost you some points in the end... might have been worth your while to get on the ground and get the whole building in the background.

A Melbournian!!... Nice image. I love the juxtaposition of the newly weds with the advertising on the tram.

My wife asked if this was the "backstreet boys in 20 years time"? Harsh! Then she noticed me in the shot.

Congratulations on the blue ribbon... outstanding image. Looks like 2012 might be a year for the insect/animal in the FS... and what better way to start. Well done!

This is my favourite image in the free study... love it so much that I've picked this to be the image I give my 1,000th comment to. I love the moment you've captured, adore the processing and am totally in awe... bumping it from the original 9 I gave during the voting phase to a 10...

One of my favourite images in this months free-study. Love the processing and the composition... the crop... WONDERFUL. I'd happily have this hanging on a wall in my home.
