Good artistic abstract shot. I you could have got rid of the triangle of grass showing between the neck and the jaw it would have improved things I think.

The colours are good and the reflection takes it a bit out of the ordinary. But not enough to be higher up in my opinion. Good work though.

Wheels & Track

Its definately parts and the shot is quite interesting. The lighting is what lets it down in my opinion. Too bright and harsh I think. I know that seems a bit unfair because its obviously beyound your control. Unless you could have returned at a different time of day?

Fishing Bells

Very nice idea but in my opinion not quite there. Firstly cropping tighter on the bells would help. The background is blurred but it gives the impression of sloping to one side. I know its a river and not the horizon but it still looks crooked. One last thing, the bells don't look quite right just above the trees, a lower shooting position or higher may have given a better result, maybe not, I wasn't there so I don't know. Its always worth changing position and seeing how it looks. On the whole a very nice shot using a very nice idea, once again an image that tells a story or conveys an idea works well, or is that just me? I tried the cropping and leveling I mentioned, even on the low-res image I got, I think it works. I'd be happy to show you on the full sized image after the challenge if you'd like?

Hands

I think boith hands would have been better. The top of the dark area shows something in the background which is distracting. The tone is nice and warm but for me it lacks a "story" or a point of particular interest. The hand is the perhaps the most interesting part and it is leading the eye out of the shot. Just my opinion anyway.

Animal parts and tree parts.

Well spotted, (or should that be striped, sorry) The contrasting textures work well together. Nice lighting. The upright trunk does get in the way a bit. If you could have used it to frame the shot a bit more it might have been better?

First of all I liked the colours in this shot, then it made me think about what the horse was thinking (sad maybe)? Good DOF use with just enough detail to give it life and make it interesting. Very well done.

Money is always interesting. Nice colours and detail. The white space down in the bottom right detracts and could easily have been avoided.

I have no idea what this is a picture of, its some sort of manufactured metalic object? But I don't know what. I think that's what make it so appealing. That and the texture of the metal, the tones and the lighting. Oh yes and I think the black border enhances the image.

Another wonderful texture / detail shot. I think some sort of colour or tone might have improved it though. As long as that is within the rules of the challenge.
