Editing feels pretty unsubtle and over the top, for no obvious reason that I can see

Looks a lot like Lake Louise in the 1930s. I don't feel the grain adds a whole lot to this, other than making it look like an old grainy image

This one stopped me for a while. Has a beautiful mood, lovely colour palette, what looks like subtle processing but doesn't look much of anything like a photograph or photographic, any more.

It really evokes the feel of a marshland or dead/wasted trees near a lake, but raises it beyond that to not be any particular place but something more fundamental.

So I don't quite know how to vote, to be honest. Its a lovely, beautiful image. It reminds me of the area I grew up and is something I'd probably even hang on the wall if I'd taken it myself. But it doesn't meet the 'keep your pictures photographic' rule.

Was in my top 5 for this challenge. Glad I'm on track with the general mood of the site ;)

Congrats on a great image. Well done.

On reading the 'Photographer's comments' above, I find I'm more interested in knowing something about what happened before you pressed the shutter.

What drew you to this subject, how was it when you found it, is it all entirely natural/found, how did you approach finding the final composition, what first caught your eye, how much did it take before you 'found' this final frame, that sort of stuff. If you have time, it would be really interesting I think (well, at least for me)

A good idea to show life in motion. A slightly higher angle might have strengthed the composition though.

Reminds me of a lot of Ursula's work. Very cool abstract flow of the egg/ white in the background. Cool light too. I think the black line at the top really helps to frame and balance the shot. Leading off to white wouldn't be as strong.

I don't think the black background enhances the concept of the shot. Something brighter and more alive might work well (complimentary to the green?)

Dirty Life

Very documentary/ photojournalistic feel to it. The foggy weather is giving you really even light for portraiture and a great falloff in the detail. The framing is strong too, with the fence and road.
