 My gosh it was cold today.

Was going to enter bokeh, but couldn't get any shots with decent bokeh (until I was fooling around this evening, just using up card space). I figure with less than a hundred entries, I gotta get at least the top 90. I hope.

I like this shot. I wanted to go bw and make it all forlorn and stuff, but it was a nice sky, so I decided to leave it color. Had one that was a looser crop, that was technically better, but I like how this one "felt."

Nice use of DOF. How many times do you see a cap, glove or item left behind. Nice job.

Interesting lighting, good dof.

This is a good concept but the image feels very cramped. I'd prefer to see more of the outside area around the cap...as it is, it feels very cut-off and crowded.

why is the hat cut off the bottom there? A "whole" hat would have been better no?

A good shot of a common theme. This is nice in that the hat is the subject but the OOF background is composed in a way that is interesting without taking away from the hat: 8

Nice composition. Flat lighting. Lighting, unfortunately, often trumps composition. 5

This is kind of what I envisioned when the challenge came up, or empty bleachers with debris, etc... That's just me however. :D Photo wise, it's "ok". Looks like it could use a little more contrast and some color saturation. I like how you've positioned the hat in your image. Good luck in the challenge.
