Ever so simple, yet ever so effective. It didn't even need the extra explanation in the title.

The lovely quality aside (the crisp foreground, the nice blur and lovely colours in the background, the composition..), I quite like the way it leaves me guessing. It doesn't look like anything is actually going on (i.e. you just held up that tape for a moment), but then again, I could be wrong..... Nice shot.

I didn't enter, but my very first idea was the shocking mess my husband leaves in the kitchen when he does cook. So this is MY pick of the bunch. I like it because I can relate to it so well :-)

1100 photo shoot

I loved the way this photo just loaded on my computer..... slowly, starting from the top. The first 3/4 were sort of blah.... nothing special about it at all.
Then finally I got to see the car and the people, and suddenly it all clicked into place. I got the scale and the action, and it went from blah to NICE !!!!!!! Great shot, love it!

Oh, the Joy of It!

Oh dang..... no ribbon. I LOVE that photo, as you can tell by the "favorite". I'm tempted to put this pic on my phone and look at it whenvever I feel stressed or down, it is such a delight in every way.

WTG, Frank!! This was my only 10, and I'm happy to see a blue ribbon on it now. It practically screams "right angles" !!!!!

"ruffage"??? Are you trying to say "roughage"?

I find this very messy, harsh, noisy and hard to look at.
Perhaps this isn't the best subject for a b&w challenge?

Study in Duel Colors

Cute idea, but the gaps bother me (and so does the "duel").
A shot like this needs total precision to work well.

Silent Shadows

Coming back for another look....
I still like this one a lot! You seem to be shooting straight into the sun, yet you managed to keep details on the gravestones instead of pure silhouettes, and all that without an obvious HDR look. The shadows are a strong feature. Very interesting image.
