A great photo. I like the line of the fence in the foreground and the snow capped mountains in the background which are placed perfectly to define the shape of the roof on the building. Grain adds perfect mood as well.

A beautiful shot! Great lighting and colours but IMO DNMC requirements.

Great composition although maybe including a little more of the hand, say to the wrist, would have been better as it would have defined the shape of the hand better. Not too sure about so much grain though.

Awwwwww, poor little guy! This monster used to live under my bed, I know how he feels! Great photo! The grain adds to the mood perfectly and I especially love the way the little guy is gripping the edge of the bed. Hope he got a chocolate after this!

This is a fantastic photo but imo would look better with no grain. At the moment, the grain is too similar to the texture of the fur and I feel, adds nothing to the photo. Great composition though, especially the way he is looking over his shoulder at the camera.

I think this is an amazing image! I like the placement of the main subject in the bottom right corner and the blue/red colour scheme. The out of focus, people in the background have an impressionist/painterly feel which I find really beautiful. It would be interesting to see this photo without the grain and maybe in b&w, although I think losing the blues and reds would actually detract from the photo. This is one of those images I could look at again and again. There is actually a great impressionist image 'lurking' in the top of this photo. Just thinking, if you cropped just under the skates of the man with the blue jumper around his waist, then cloned out the girls head and the 'half' man on the right......hmmmmm.

Great action shot! The blue hue makes the water seem really cold but I'm not too sure if I like it. I would like to see this photo in b&w to decide. Nevertheless, it is still a great shot!

For me, the crop on this photo feels a bit tight, especially only including half of the wall in the front. Maybe you should have demolished the wall in front alltogether. Lol. Sure no-one would have noticed! The grain is good though and suits the subject matter although there are some blown out highlights on the bottom left and on the 'chimney'.

I really love this picture but for this challenge, I feel the grain is not evident enough. The only areas where I can see real grain is around the lights. The composition is excellent though as is the tonal range. Well photographed!

Bad day on the north 40.

Good grain and subject matter but imo the image does not have a good tonal range and feels a bit washed out.
