Wonderful angle and perspective. Rainy/overcast day has given this perfect diffused light. Love the post work blur too as it has added a fantastic DoF dimension. Go Aimee, congrats on 4th place! :) |

Aimee, congratulations on another high finish and an honorable mention. Good portrait, fitting pose, expression, eye contact, props. Thanks for your care of the Earth. Blessings from your "arts & crafts" kindred spirit.

Congratulations. Great colors and it's amazing how important a toe can be. It somehow grounds you and represents your goals in an earthy sort of way. |

WOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!! killer shot woman. Love the perspective, can't even imagine how to be successful taking a self portrait from that perspective in the middle of the street. You are so talented and creative. I can't think of anything to improve in this image. I really had to look to see that you were sitting in a chair. I read somewhere that we are simply borrowing the earth from our children, not an exact quote but near...and that's so true. Thank you for the work you do :-) |

Congrats on fourth. I gave you a 9 and thought it would be near the top. It is a very nice portrait. |

Congrats on 4th! I really liked this one too (too) :)
Thought the same about the foot, but then thought, no, that's appropriatly 'earthy', like it. |

I love the shot Aimee, although I think I would have hid your foot as it sorta stands out a bit. |

"WOW" you are just so clever, as the simplicity of this image is what makes it stand out, with a very important message as well.....
I am so proud of you, and so close to a ribbon as well, with this one..... |

I think the quiet colors pass along the message much more nicely than B&W would have. Another very well done shot, my dear. You do such nice work, both in your profession and with your photography! |

congrats on top 5. I gave this an 8. I think the only thing radical and freakazoid is to ignore environmental concerns, like a certain administration that shall remain nameless. |

I'm not voting on this challenge, but I wanted to comment on your picture.
I love this shot! Nice perspective. My only comment would be to have shot the picture in a more 'natural' setting: running water, field, forest, or something along those lines. I have a feeling this will be under-rated as it doesn't have that DPC 'look,' but I wanted to let you know that I like it!
I'm getting my degree in biology and hoping to place part of the emphasis on conservation. We should talk ;) |

I really like the idea behind the photo, it took me a minute to figure out you are sitting on a stool. Great expression and I like the bare feet but I feel there is just a little something missing to make this a very powerful photo.
Best of luck, in the end I gave this a 9 |

I like the perspective... the eyes look a little startled and about to pop out of your head...maybe that's a reflection of the state of the world LOL...bumping up to 8 |
