let go of the wheel

Comment:
The title explains the photo in this case, on it's own, I would have wondered what this was about. I think perhaps I would have appreciated more if I saw some part of the dashboard or perhaps the wheel. IMO It needs something to "anchor" it.
SCORE: 4 Well done nonetheless! Good luck!

Big Drop Lets Go Smaller Droplets
by Dyslexic

Comment:
I'm guessing people aren't thrilled with this photo as it is water drops. I'm not tired of them yet, so good idea as far as I'm concerned. I would have liked to have seen the droplets in line with the big drop, I know that's no easy task. Also, the image in the droplets takes away from the simplicity of this shot. Maybe try a neutral background. One droplet has a little glare in it which is a bit distracting. SCORE : 7 Well done and good luck!

Loosening Grasps

You've managed to capture an emotion and as a result, I called my mom the minute I saw this photo. Great use of B&W , fits the challenge, and I like the composition. It's cropped a little tight but that's just knitpicking. SCORE: 8 Well done and good luck!

Upon first seeing this photo I thought it was pretty good but did nothing for me as far as meeting the challenge. I don't have kids, so the thought of letting go didn't occur to me right away. I've looked at this 3 times and now I get it. I hope others will too as it is a very well done photo. SCORE: 7 Well done and good luck!

Dropping....

This is a really good idea! For me, it was maybe cropped a little tight. But what bothers me most here is the brightness and contrast. Both are too high and instead of helping the photo, it's distracting. SCORE: 5 Well done and good luck!

But I Need My Blanky...

I just love the look on this boy's face. You've managed to capture an emotion and that's not always easy to do. The background, a black comforter I presume, is a bit distracting for me. The cropping is a little tight, but the focus is well done. I think this would've appealed to me a great deal more in B&W. SCORE:5 Well done! Good luck!

Whimsical Earth

I'm not sure I get this photo. Although I want to get it... leaves letting go of the tree?
I see where the "whimsical" comes into play, those colors are indeed whimsical! For me, they're a little to bright, the glare on the rock is distracting. A higher shutter speed would've maybe helped a bit. If you've adjusted the contrast afterwards, then maybe try a little less contrast and a little less brightness in the future. SCORE: 4 Well done nonetheless! Good luck!

OK, I let go...

You've managed to capture the challenge quite well. Kuddos for that. I like the subject and the composition is nice as well. The lighting is what bothers me here, the colors look faded out, and the brick is the same color as the bunny which doesn't "pop" as much as it should. Brightness and contrast could have been adjusted here a bit. Score:4 Well done nontheless! Good luck!

The Ride

I'm not exactly sure what this shot means to you. Something tells me it means a great deal so I'll try to convey what I see. For me, the lighting is to bright, and the fact that no part of the picture is in focus is distracting. Maybe a higher shutter speed would've fixed that. As for the composition, it's pretty good, I like the post on the left, although I would have liked to see the right hand and more of the subject. score: 4 Well done nontheless! Good luck!
