Sorry, I submitted at the last minute and didn't have time to write them. Basically, I used a dark strokes effect and a brush strokes effect on different layers. I then erased different parts of each layer until each part of the photo had the amount of detail and darkness that I wanted it to have. I then dodged and burned and adjusted the hue/saturation slightly. |

My favorite! But where are the "How To" notes? |

This was another image whose warm clay tones captured my imagination. Very nice. |

This was one of two entries that didn't fit what I thought of as "impressionist" but really liked. I gave it a 10. The lighting on the original image must have been great. |

Well composed, and the colours are great. A little dark at the bottom maybe.
I'm not convinced this is the best subject for this softening effect though, I think I'd prefer to see tall the detail nice and sharp. |

Your artistic take on this piece works quite well, in my unqualified opinion. I like the framing, contrast, and subdued tones. Overall clearly one of the strongest entries and I imagine this should do quite well. 7 |

I really liked the flow of this picture, but felt the contrast/detail was too high. |

Like the gold color. The crop yields very nice depth. |

I am only commenting and using a place holder score during this pass.
The subject is an interesting choice. I usually like this natural color pallette but somehow think that the picture could do with a little more brightness/lightness. But I'm only saying that based on a personal preference. I think it's the sharp contrast within the towers themselves that throws it off. |

An interesting point of view of this noble looking building. I like the subtle way you have used filters to give it a painted look. |

balanced composition, nice colors. i like the detail that remains, inspite of the effects used to achieve the result. can't say that i find the image that engaging, though. |

Reminds me of some of Monet's church paintings. Focus on shapes and light. |

Looks like a PS filter... I don't like the effect on this shot and don't think it looks particularly impressionist. 2 |

Great technique, I love it, but the subject doesn't really work for me. |

Excellent lighting and shadows, the color contrast between and spires and the sky creates interest. |
