This is a really good shot, I don't think it quite has the "pop" as much as your second photo though (M02).

Impressive. I love it when ordinary things become "Art" with an appealing shape or an unusual placement. Nice idea.

The only thing I'd maybe change is the little hook at the end, it messes with the flow a bit.

A Universe Inside My Glass

Comment:
Since you called for constructive comments...

I find the reflections too harsh and the background very distracting. The main subject it supposed to be the foam in the glass but it's over powered by all the other elements. The glass handle being so prominent in the picture doesn't help either. Also it looks more like a "Oh look at that" snapshot kind of picture rater than a well thought out carefully taken picture.

I think the concept is excellent and could have done very well had just a bit more attention been paid to it's surrounding environment.

Edit: I said foam as if it was beer, the consensus seems to be it's mold - so foam, mold whatever - I was referring to the actual "cosmos"

what I like:
I think you captured this at just the right moment with the corner of the bill well lit. The fire is well exposed.

What I don't like:
I would have preferred a more interesting background.

Not what it used to be...

what I like:
the picture is nice and sharp and the lighting doesn't seem too bad.

What I don't like:
overall the picture seems a bit too bland for me. Some of the details on the coin are hard to make out and the way the bill is folded makes it a little bit confusing.

I like the set up, much more interesting than your typical money shot.the lighting works very well.

What I don't like:
I think you could use a bit more depth of field. My eye is drawn to the upper left-hand corner where things are out of focus.

what I like:
the beautiful landscape, wonderful clouds. This really is a great location. The colors look good and it's all nice and sharp.

What I don't like:
the vignetting draws my eye to the center of the photo and away from the logs. Since the challenges 10 I think that takes away from the picture a bit.

still a wonderful picture though.

Sleeping In

what I like:
fun idea well executed. I think the card really makes the picture.

What I don't like:
too dark in the background. While I like the card I think it takes up too much of the picture. The person sleeping doesn't seem like they're in a very natural position which makes it seem a bit staged.
