Playing in the Leaves

You have captured absolute JOY, well done. The focus is clear, could have been just a touch tighter on the eyes, but still good. The lighting is pleasing (a fill flash may have added a little more definition to the face and brought out the eyes that touch more) But overall an attractive image that captures a beautiful memory-good luck

Mountain Stream

I really love mountain scenes and the slow shutter streams and this one has them both. Really nice picture, however one comment to really make this one stand out more would be to have it as close to the MAXIMUM allowed size. "File Size: No larger than 150 KB (153,600 bytes). Dimension: No dimension may be shorter than 160 pixels or longer than 640 pixels." Your dimensions are at 75,372 bytes and 300 x 449 pixels. The larger the size the better it is too see all the little details. Smaller pictures usually get penalized with lower scores due to the size only-Having said all that, I do want to let you know that I like the photo and wish you luck, and if it does not score as you were expecting know that it may be due to the sizing.

Nice concept, well titled, however the blown highlights really distract from the image. Also the picture is too small which makes it reall hard to see a great amount of detail. You should try to have your challenge entries as close to the maximum allowed size as possible -- "File Size: No larger than 150 KB (153,600 bytes). Dimension: No dimension may be shorter than 160 pixels or longer than 640 pixels."-- your dimensioins are 128,826 bytes and 325 x 431 pixels.

Nice composition, however since the picture is so small I am unable to see enough detail to tell if the focus is sharp or not.
"File Size: No larger than 150 KB (153,600 bytes). Dimension: No dimension may be shorter than 160 pixels or longer than 640 pixels." You should try to have your challenge entries as close to the maximum allowed; Your dimensions are 20,139 bytes and 450 x 298 pixels. If you have received low scores it is probably due more to the size of the picture then to the content.

Nice capture, I really like this one. I do wish that I could see just a wee bit more detail in the face. Well done

Happy Dog

Nice focus, beautiful subject, good background. I would have preferred that the dog be on the right thirds instead, as it is it appears that the dog is going to run out of the photo, therefore it draws me out of the photo instead of into it. Of course that is just my opinion and I have no idea what you had to work with. Good luck

Nice capture, however the image is a little smaller then the maximum allowed. If you could try to have your image as close to 640 pixels on the longest side more details are visible. "File Size: No larger than 150 KB (153,600 bytes). Dimension: No dimension may be shorter than 160 pixels or longer than 640 pixels." Sometimes scores suffer just due to the image being small. Still a beautiful capture-good luck
