Probably one of the more comical and fun literal interpretations. =P

Pretty picture, but I'm not really feeling anything towards "letting go." Relaxing, perhaps... but it's a stretch.

Relaxed driving

I like the relaxing concept, but I think you could have done more with this. Perhaps working a bit harder to keep the interior steady and let the movement of elements outside create the motion. Just my .02. Good luck!

Pleasant and relaxing image, good idea and good lighting. Speaking of lighting, I'd move that lamp up a couple inches and this would be great. ;)

Slow Down – Stop holding on so tight

That's some really interesting lighting you used (assuming this hasn't been tweaked.) I look forward to reading the description and techniques for it. Compositionally, you've captured a lot of movement and action. However, for a "feeling" of letting go, I'd imagine the car farther along with the streaks behind it. *shrug* Still fun.

Pretty flower, but the relation to 'letting go' seems a bit hard to grasp here. (For me, at least.)

I like how you've composed the elements here, especially how the hand is small and based at the bottom center. However, it's an action of "letting go", not a "feeling" as the contest specified. Oh well. Still a pleasant photo. :)

My way of letting the old go

You've got a very cool sense of motion and "impending doom", but it feels like the photo is lacking in vibrance. The composition is pretty straight on and nothing (other than the hammer) pops out at the viewer. Maybe white posterboard for the mat instead of cloth? *shrug* There's a lot to play with.

Leaving

Wait. What? You're not letting the door handle drop to the floor?
*grin* Sorry, I'm jaded.
Very nice work here, I love symmetry for one. The "cold" tone heightens the emotional impact and the fact that a lot is hidden from view really just leaves it to our imagination. :) Thanks for making something that kept my eye.
