My Picasso

I thought this was brilliant and I wasn't even familiar with Picasso's self portrait (after taking a look at the link I decided I wanted to comment because you did such an awesome job on this shot). I gave you an 8 initially but now I wish I'd given you a 10. Such creativity is not always appreciated by the majority (as the best DPCrs already know) but the majority isn't capable of creating masterpieces.

This would be utterly brilliant if it were larger. You've obviously got talent for composition and creativity so good luck with this one and hopefully people won't beat you up too much over the size of your entry.

Fighting for survival

I can't believe this didn't place higher. I think people were traumatized by the subject and didn't vote according to the quality of the photo. I was horrified, but amazed at the same time when I came across this one during the voting process. My mother has always told me that swans are vicious, but this was the first time I'd seen proof.

I was one of the 6 who gave this image a 10 and I'm truly saddened that so many others felt they had to vote it down. It's a brilliant capture worthy of National Geographic (at least).

This is already a winner, but it'd be nice to see it place really highly in this competition :)

Aw man, I wish I'd known! I go into the city relatively often and would've loved to have gone to see your photo up in Times Square! I've submitted a photo, or two, of mine trying to get up there so I think it's awesome that someone I sort of know made it :) Good for you!

Portrait of Amelie

She has one of the most beautiful expressions I've seen in a portrait. This is a lovely image and I can certainly see why you'd feel it was your best of '04 :)
