Might have been great contrasts and textures, but the image is too small and the (carpet?) is too bright to really appreciate your subject. Setup looks a bit contrived. Lighting from only the on-camera flash makes the picture look flat and dull. Some side lights would show off the interesting textures better. Hope that helps for your next challenge.

I like this image very much, but the shot through the wreath doesn't do it for me. It would have been more powerful, I think, without the wreath obscuring the child and the names on the wall. (Would be better too if names were easier to see). But such a powerful idea!

Such a great idea and an awesome perspective, but not in focus.

Neat idea and nice lighting, but out of focus.

It Electrifying!

Not sure what it is, but it makes for a neat piece of art! Points off for that spot on the bottom of the image, though.

Pane in the Glass

Ack! I bet that kind of window would be a 'pane' to replace, too! How would this image have looked if you'd shot straight on (avoiding your reflection, of course) and only shown these four blocks, nothing else?

Nice tones, great expression, excellent capture of the ball and sand. Would like to see the head of the club. Regardless of whether this is an action shot or a posed one, it's a great image. There are some minor distractions - the white brush strike above the head and some light and dark areas at the top - which you probably couldn't help with an action shot.

Very cool image and interesting lines, though the girl looks like she's scratching at her face.

Good idea and neat execution. Funny how you left the color. Slightly distracting shadow in upper right. Since this image is so perfectly balanced, I wonder how a square format would look.

Very nice tones and lighting. Background in the upper left is a bit distracting, and I personally would have preferred more space at the top and bottom.
