Love this shot Soni! One of my favs of the challenge, I gave it a 10! Should've placed much higher then this, at least above mine!

Have you tried inverting this photo? I had been trying to capture a good smoke shot for awhile, and then figured out that if you inverted a picture just like this, it really enhanced the beauty of the smoke! I entered my shot in the New Year's Resolution challenge check it out here. Your shutter speed is much faster then mine, so I wouldn't worry about that! A nice smoke shot for sure, just need a little kick, or something to give it some grab!

I love this shot. The DOF is enticing, and really draws me in and the way the leaves are positioned leads me straight to the leaf that is in focus and has the least amount of snow on it! Very well thought out composition! Lighting is nice, as is the toning of the photo! Overall VERY nice! 9

Excellent DOF here! Nice color, and a nice composition! It's IMO bad ettiquette to include something that gives away your identity in a photo though, at least as blatently as in this photo, Mr. Ken Choate. A nice shot nonetheless! DOn't worry I'm not marking you down for that!

The shot seems out of focus. If you intended for this, I don't understand the artistry behind it. If not, did you use a tripod!? A nice composition though, and beautiful colors. Straighten up the horizon though, and use a little neat image to get rid of the noise!

Much to heavy on the neat image here, and if that was intentional I don't understand the statement. A nice potrait otherwise, well lit, a nice subject, well positioned everything. You have a definite talent as a potrait photographer, just tone down the neat image. WAY down.

I thought you should've placed much higher with this shot Ursula. I gave it a 10 personally. I love the colors in the shot, they are just so appealing. As is the composition. Seems people knocked you down for it not being a 'traditional' macro shot. Congratulations on a fantastic shot!

P.S. I have a feeling this might sell well on DPCprints!

Would've done very well in the tacky x-mas decoration category!
