 A marker in choppy waters. The pattern of the water somewhat hypnotized me, and I hope it translated to the screen.

The waves look so oversharpened that they almost look embossed. I like the idea, but not the post-processing.

This is interesting. I think if the plank(?) was a little off centered the composition would be more pleasing, imo. 7

love the sand-like texture, just wish your object was off to one side, and wasn't blown out.

Such nice texture in the water. That post is a great, disturbing factor. Great job.

I like the pattern of the water,but the stick as the focus of the photo does nothing for me.

If you look at this too long you really get dizzy! But it is a nice shot capturing minimalism very well!

I like the tiny waves that break up the water. Nice reflection. I gave it a 7. Not sure if putting the subject to either side would have improved it for me or not.

Nice idea. Seems to be slightly over-exposed.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

i really think that this meets the challenge welll....but for me the backround is overwhelming your subject...very cool though

I like the background, but what is that stick about?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/27/2005 12:51:54 PM
I like it but the subject does not stand out enough against the background.

Beautiful.

do not like the composition and it seems a bit oversaturated...I think this would have done better more off-center and desaturated some 5
