Not a bad shot at all the colors are wonderful here. The lighting is a little off around the alter. You can tell there are things there but can't make them out as they are lost in the darkness.

The one thing I really don't like about the photo is the gold line at the top in the center. I want to say it looks like a cord to a ceiling fan or something of that nature, but no matter what it is, it really distracts from the beauty of the windows and woodwork here.

As for meeting the challenge some may question that but hey I'm from America and that is one of the things we fought for in the beginning so I say it says freedom. Nice take on the challenge.

Just had to let you know this really caught my attention as I was going through the voting. It was the first color photo after about 10 b&w photos and the color really grabbed me.

Simply stunning. Love the way the light is coming over the shoulder and hitting the baby. Pulls the eye right into it.

This really is a very pretty photo you got. The composition is exordinary, the colors are magnificent and the focus is really good.

You really did deserve a ribbon, well done and congrats.

Fantastic Macro of this spider. Only thing that could possibly improve it is if it were on something other than the towel. It really is excellent.

This is a really cool shot. Shows that no matter what our situation may be we still need friends. The dog probably a stray became the man's only family on the street. I'd say you have a wonderful photo here!

LOL Kosta, if you wanted a self portrait in stone you could have used a can of spray paint, you didn't have to do the Flintstone thing of a rock and a chisel. =o) Very cool shot!

Hi Rob.

I've sat here looking at this photo trying to decide what to say about it. First off it doesn't do much for me. The macro itself is good with lots of detail and it does fit the challenge well, there is definately repetition in this photo so what is it I don't like about the photo? I think it lacks color and or tones. Possibly a little color behind the lace or try photographing it away from the window to get some tones and shadows into it.

As it is now you got a cool building ground for some neat abstracts by playing with color and tone and I seriously would play with it some. It definately was able to hold my attention long enough to sit here since last night trying to figure out what I didn't like about it and how to improve it.

gutter

Very good perspective, excellent detail and texture. Very good use of dof, only thing is the gutter draws your eye the whole way from bottom to top and I feel almost like there should be something at the end of it.

As it is right now it is a bit dull and needs something more added to it, even if it was merely a leaf or a bit of trash at the end of the gutter.
