Great objects - WONDERFUL focus. Looks like a PRO' web page background tile.
Intriguing. 9/10

Rope?

This is MAGIC ! Absolutely NOTHING like anything else I've seen. I find the textures really absorbing - especially the beautiful purple hue of the rope on the right.....er although I s'pose it might be healthier to keep and eye on the fire serpent.

10 because I've sat and stared at it for so long.

I really like it. We see a LOT of chess set images but you've really set this composition apart. Great perspective with lots to look at and enjoy in the contrasts between focused and unfocused pieces and all the amazing reflections of the sky.

The first I've commented on so far this week and the one that DESERVES to come FIRST.

Definitely an image with the sought-after "Wow" factor - as "WOW !!!" is exactly what involuntarily issued from me immediately upon seeing this extraordinarily striking picture.

There was a "fleet"ing moment when I thought it was a model ship - such was the impact of its shape.

What is it ? How did you do it ?

IT'S FANTASTIC !!

Great good luck to you for your final placing ! Er....10 !

Good choice of reedy framing gives extra dimension.

Spooky ! I really like it.... so much mystery as to what you might see (er - but perhaps not in THIS weather) from the top....It's just like the lookout point in the first "Monkey Island" game.... Magic.... but Brrrr ! 8/10

I don't think of "weather" first when looking at this shot but it's so great I can't hold back from an instant 9/10 - I particularly like the sufr spray whipping up behind the rock on the right.

What a great image !
