WOW!!! Stunning shot here. Great model. I love the b&w with the touch of color on the flower. That definitely adds impact and interest to the shot. Nice DOF. Very nice shot and your score shows it. Ha[[y shooting.

You did pretty good for your 1st entry with your phone. This fits in perfectly with this challenge. It also works very well as a b&w. I like the amount of detail captured on the tentacles. Nice DOF. What can I say you got a nice shot and your score proves it.

Interesting shot. Fits very well with the challenge. It was a puzzle to me. Nice DOF. I like the detail that you have captured. The lighting is a bit off but I don't think that hurts the quality of the shot too much. Happy shooting.

Stunning portrait. I think you chose your model well. The lighting is good. The backdrop works well with your model. What else can I say. Your score demonstrates that it is a good pic. Keep it up and happy shooting.

1st of all I want to say I like it. The feather being off center is a good touch. The overall scenery is good. I like being able to see the rocks/pebbles at the bottom of the lake. Fairly clear water. I also like your DOF. The only thing that is just not doing it for me is the brightness of the shot. The sky is too bright and that bleeds down into the water. Good job. Happy shooting.

Not bad.... I think the wind blown petal is a good touch. It adds to the interest of the shot. I am not a big fan of the background here. I think the flowers in the back detract from the subject. The colors are nice and fit the "pastels" challenge quite nicely. Good job. Happy shooting.

I see where you were going with this. However, I feel that it is WAY too busy. You have captured the feeling of fast and furious but I just think that less would be more. You have turned a motion blur shot into almost an abstract shot. Sorry but this just doesn't do it for me. Happy shooting

1st of all let me say congrats on the ribbon. This shot is stunning. I am a sucker when it comes to waterfall shots. I love the water....the sky...oh and last but not least, the subject of the shot, the mountain. The only place in the shot that could use improvement is almost dead center. The sun is a bit bright there. For me that is pretty minor. Again congrats and happy shooting

Your DOF is very nice on this. Perfect focus point for this type of shot. The details/textures are also quite nice. However I think it would have added interest to it if the pearl / bead was more off center. Happy shooting.

Interesting shot. Works perfectly for this challenge. I had no idea what it was until I read your description. I like the multiple colors illustrated here. Also you have nice leading lines that lead the eyes through the shot. Also I think the lighting turned out nice. Overall I think you did a good job with this capture. Happy shooting
