Ok, sounds goofy......but, I really like the clarity of the hair on the horse's chin! *grin* You captured a "tender moment". Love it.

What an interesting shot! It really makes you think. You kind of wonder where the shoe wearer went. Makes one think. I love the DOF in this shot! Nicely done!

I'm really caught by the symbolism of this shot. Really nice!
Don't you wish you could have asked the driver of that car to have moved it? *smile*

Wow, love the framing to this! It really adds to the shot. This shot has a real surreal feel to it and that makes it really stand out. Love it!

What depth to this shot. Rich in constrast and depth in the horizon hills. Wonderfully done!

Wow, stunning capture and the depth of constrast in B&W is really great! I love the idea that we're able to capture what we want in these side challenges and feel that we've done what we wanted, rather than trying to conform to what we THINK the voters want! Kinda like getting a free pass, isn't it? LOVE this shot!

Really interesting perspective and focal point. Rather an abstract look to it which I really like.

lovely subject for b&w! Fits really nicely.

I see that the sky kind of got a bit blown out there, but it really does make the tractor stand out without the distraction of branches etc. to distract the eye. This is where we'd get "creamed" in a regular challenge. There is a certain look to photos that are judged as top ranking and these kinds of blow outs would have taken criticsm. However, I think it works well in this case!

I think you've done an excellent job! DOF is really excellent.

About the only thing that I think I might have suggested is perhaps, darkening this shot just a tad to really bring out the depths of b&w a bit more. But, it's really a great shot!
