Summer is the best time to visit Seattle
by caba

Comment:
This is by far the best Seattle image in the challenge - and probably the best "any city" image. DOF to infinity. Great contrast between tower and mountain (and even the skyline composition is cool). Would do wonderful as the front cover of a travel guide for the area. It would attract me, that's for sure. As an overall travel image, it would have to be supplemented by people and activities. If I rated higher for other images, it was because they also included those items. Congratulations.

Swan Lake a great place to relax

Comment:
Although it is a realtive nice water reflection image, it just doesn't tell me much about the area and its attractions, its culture, people, history, etc. I would have tried to include more visual information about activities (boats, swans, people, historical buildings - if available, etc.). Good luck with it.

Luna Vista Resorts - When you REALLY want to get away! (transportation not included)

Comment:
Nice image for a brochure about a night at the observatory. Probably not too realistic as a true travel destination. Fortunately, probably not everyone rates as drastically as I do for "truth in advertising". Good luck with it.

We call em "Bush Rangers" round 'ere mate & he's a biggen!

Sorry. This doesn't look like a place I'd like to visit. If there WAS an attraction that sported this individual as their main model, I'd probably try to portray it in an image with more of the surroundings - to put it into perspective - rather than making it so sinister.

Sending people into Florida this week would not be a profitable business, unless you worked for the Red Cross or the National Guard. Residence there probably are going to want a totally different kind of image in the travel guide...

Lincoln Memorial, Washington D.C.
by smokeditor

Comment:
Really nice image; spectacular sunset. Hmmm... is DC really about the scenery and weather? Most images would have shown the sitting Lincoln figure all lit up ... Maybe the DC C of C should think about YOUR viewpoint once in awhile. Might take the dirty politics out of everyone's mental thought processes when thinking about traveling to Washinton - there ARE lots of historical and artistic attractions. Congratulations on a really nice image.

Worship, High In The Rockies
by dacrazyrn

Comment:
Neat juxtaposition of sunset and moonrise - or vice versey. Love the image. Would it have been possible to dodge the left and right of the building to get more of the lighting effect? Might not be necessary, but could have shown even more detail in the building. Anyway, still love the image. Congratulations.

Absolutely stunning image. Must be nice feeling to have taken it. I would have given it a higher rating, but I was looking for also for additional visual information about people, activities, events, etc. You'll probably get lots of 10s though, and as an image alone, it deserves them. Congratulations.

The Viking ship at night

Comment:
I really like the beautiful Viking sculpture and the way the photograph portrays the contrasting colors, lighting and reflections. It makes me think that there are whole parts of the world that I know nothing about. Maybe I should visit there. Nicely done.

Seafarer’s Memorial - “For those who await their return”
by jbsmithana

Comment:
There's a story here; probably based on very interesting history. There are water activities galore; beautiful surface reflections; nice water craft; lots of outside activities. This image, with such clear details and bright contrasts, really makes me want to visit. Congratulations.
