Now that's Weston texture.

The light and the texture in this are very Weston. The addition of the textured background made this.

This is one of the most attempted shots in this challenge, but no one came as close to nailing it as you did. Wonderful use of light.

This wouldn't have worked nearly as well in color.

That's an impressive number of birds. Unfortunately, since they are each so small in the frame and they don't have the benefit of color to help separate them from the background, they end up looking more like a texture. That's not necessarily a bad thing, in the bigger scope of things, but for this challenge, I don't think it all works as well as it would have in color. It's a nice black and white conversion, though.

Any last wishes?

i would have loved to see this cropped tighter. I don't think the negative space adds anything--in fact, it tales away from the mouse, who is now very small in the frame.

The light and the colors in this look like they are right out of a fairy tale. Rip Van Winkle?

I love the colors in this, but since the horizontal lines are so strong, I would have liked to see the ratio between the sides emphasize that...maybe 2:3 instead of 3:4.

The colors are much too saturated here. The over saturation has even turned the right side of his once-white sweater blue!

I'm loving the colors on this. Bright, yet dull at the same time, just the way autumn should be.
