Congrats... once again! :-)
And Ursula... you're right... we did make a nice "yellow" trio up there! :-)

Congratulations again! I feel sorry for Mario, and I'm sad that the stack of three icy, wintery pictures from the Ottawa/Gatineua/Montreal area is gone from the front page, but this is a well deserved ribbon. I'm glad you got it back.

I would like to thank Langdon and the entire site council for going to the trouble of helping to validate my entry. I truly appreciate their willingness to be open to listening and making a decision that was based on sound circumstantial evidence and documented proof. I also appreciate all of the support that many of the members of DPC gave to me. As I stated, it wasn't the ribbon that was important. Mario, I am sorry that you were impacted by this. I read your remark about not caring about the ribbon as long as the contest was fair. I feel that was a very honorable thing to say. The bottom line is that we are all here for fun and to learn, but it is important to follow the rules. Again, I am sorry for all the trouble this caused. I hope that nobody was offended by anything that was said or by the outcome.

Thanks to everyone for your great comments and critiques. I really appreciate the time you take to give me your input. I considered this a very lucky capture. Normally it takes me many, many takes to get one I like. Maybe I should keep my eyes closed more often when I shoot!:) Thanks again, Larry |

A foolish and impossible resolution :-), but a refreshingly simple and straightforward portrait of Einstein.

We've always taken the owl as a symbol of "wiseness" and you've used it nicely to illustrate your NYR. Nice and sharp where it should be and DOF was used "wisely" here. |

Nicely relevant to the Challenge title. Surprisingly, the out-of-focus parts fail to direct my eye to the in-focus parts. Instead, they draw me to the edges. Hopefully, it's just me! |

What detail and color! Focus on the eyes is great and I love how you've seperated this owl's from it's surroundings. I also like the way you've made the connection to the challenge theme. Original and well done! Good luck. |

Excellent study (JS?). Very clear detail, although I feel that the DOF is just slightly too shallow towards the back of the head - but that's nit-picking and awesome capture. I adore that intent stare and the rich colours. [9] |

Intense look on his face. Sure glad I'm not a mouse. Love the colors of his feathers. Your lens [focus] is wonderful, I can see each feather. Nice shooting. Compliments only. |
