| I thought this was coxi's, but then it would have been more wide angle... very nice shot, but i think the idea is overdone. |

| You should SO make a print of this. This is one of the best shots I've seen on this site lately. How cool that they hung that interesting chandelier there. :) Even though I'm not entering competitions anymore, it's photos like this one that keep me coming back to check out dpchallenge. |

This is great. I love it when I look at an image and think 'what is that??' and suddenly realize what it is a few seconds later.
I like the bit of stair in the upper righthand corner. I think it balances the image, plus it adds a diagonal slash through the composition which fits with the others lines. |

I reckon that without that small distracting element in the top right hand corner this photo would be just about perfect. This is another great entry from you, Nico, I'm really enjoying your work at the moment and looking forward to seein' more.
Nice one and congrats on the ribbon,
Alex |

| At least you have some small circles in there ... but I not that the basic impact of the photo comes from a spiral, note a circle--usually the voters are so pedantic about things like that, I'm pretty (pleasantly) surprised at this seeming change in voting perspective. well-done photo regardless degree of "meeting the challenge" ascribed to it--congrats on the ribbon! |

| For this contest everyone who has the word âcircleâ in their title is getting a max 10 score. This is a copy and paste version that I am including in every photo that I upgrade to 10 due to the title. We as members of DPchallenge need to be reminded of the topic of the challenge â we really need to reread the topic every time we reach a photo. If circle is in the title and it is appropriate I will give a 10. I am sorry if you do not agree with my method of voting â but scores are all I have. (oops, you dont have the word "circle" here, but who could argue with a blue ribbon? Congrats!) |

| This shot has everything going for it, except for the top right corner... - lots of tone, contrasts, silhouettes. It does seem a very tight crop to the left - having the stairwell in it's entirety would have really boosted the dynamics of this image. Still, I'm voting in the upper quartile. |

nice leading lines and cirlces. - nice comp
imho i whould have either cropped the top closer to remove the bit of the stairs to the top right or included the whole of the line in the image from bottom right to top right. |

| Very nice. I'm not sure if a spiral counts as a circle, but I'm going to pretend it does (afterall, it's only perspective that makes this not look totally circular, right?) 9 |

| I couldn't comment on this last night becuae I was a bit speechless at the moment...I think my brain had somewhat shut down after so many un circle images..and then I happened upon this image and saw that there was hope, and I was happy. The light is gorgeous and the clarity quite nice...the tonality is delicious...superb...very nicely done...I hope this will do well. |
