The Moment Between Uncertainty and Dedication
by colorcarnival

Comment:
I like aged photo effect here. Very appropriate. It brings a "Little Drummer Boy" song by Bing Crosby & David Bowie. However the person playing dead in the lower left corner brings me back to Earth. The connection between challenge theme and the title and the boy is a bit loose. Good luck :) Bumping up

Stacked Stones

The wood looks pink on my monitor. At first I thought it's a piece of flesh... Very nice DOF. I like the pattern made by stones. I like the color scheme (despite odd effect on the wood - probably my monitor). I don't think it is such a treasure indeed, but I guess such stack of stones would drive my attention as well. Nice composition. Good luck :) Bumping up.

Nut

Background is a bit distracting. I guess it's there for a reason, but I don't get it :( The blue light reflection on the nut is also misleading. Overall - nice color scheme, nice subject, very DMC - good luck :) Bumping up

Paradise of the Psychedelic Gnomes

Comment:
Saturation is almost unrealistic - so rich. I like the effect however, as it looks like an illustration from a fairy tale - which again goes very well with the title. The sky color is making the most fake impression. Adjusting scores. Good luck!

Nice HDR effect. The church is not very hidden, but I like the idea. Bumping up.
