The lighting is a little hot around the left side of the image but the color and textures in the image are spectacular. Good framing.

Beatin' The Heat

This shot has a quality that invites many viewers in. Whether you went to a city park, an amusement park or your grandmother's yard where you pointed the water hose straight up in the air and just stood and felt the droplets falling on your head, most people have had some experience where they enjoyed the cool water keeping them from overheating in the summer.

Chilli?

Good idea. Very creative.

The lighting is a little hot on some of the ice cubes but the matte finish to the plastic bag (my assumption) under the cubes in the shot helps to dull down the light. This shows some forethought. I like the way the hot subjects tend to protrude from the cold storage.

The Upstairs Maid

This was probably my favorite of this whole challenge. It's sexy but impersonal. It coveys femininity without focusing on any particular woman. The lighting makes adds to this picture by defining the front of the outfit but it also detracts by washing out a little of the upper curve of the breasts. Overall I loved this one. Great job.

Are you going to offer prints of this (he asked hopefully)?

I would like to see the background blurier but I can see the impending loss of the photo with the rising teeth at the bottom of the image.

Unique take on this contest. You made a personal link for almost anyone that views this image (as most people have been married and, thus, have a marriage certificate. The focus around the top left corner seems a little mushy to me but that could just be the initial M and the way it was printed.

The Moon

Clear photo. I think you could have strengthened the "roundness" link in this photo by cropping the sides in more to make the black background a perfect square, thus, highlighting the roundfulness of the moon.

Helluva picture. Make prints of it.

I see that from a top-down perspective the dome is circular and from this angle it is domed but nothing drives me to think of round. It is such a good photo, though, that I hesitate to give it such a low score just because it doesn't evoke the idea of round for me.

Zero spot editing. How?

This left me with questions. It was also a creative composition that was pleasing to see.

Good job.
