Ummm.... Coffee!

I think this would have been stronger without the background object. Also seems slightly oversharpened.

Cephalopod

Awesome. Gooey, squishy, alienesque, and very effective. The only nitpick I would have, or suggestion I would make, is to clone out the dustspecks, and perhaps the reflections, in the right hand foreground. I'm just looking now, and wonder also is the depth of field could be widened, to sharpen the foreground suckers too. But still, a very strong overall entry...well done.

I really do like this, very much.......the most of them all. The muted colours, shape and form of the silhouette, and the whole photo's simplicity are what make it so good, imho. If anything, I would have cropped the right hand side slightly tighter, to off centre the subject, but thats just nitpicking for nitpicking's sake.

This is a superb tree.......Munch would be amazed.....even the flowing sinusoidal curves look like his painting. I wonder when you first spotted it....long ago, or just before the challenge?

I like the border, and the whole 'feel' of it, but I find my eyes searching for a focal point.

Flower Girl

I love the eye contact, the lighting, her expression. I'm less mad about the selective desat, the vignette border and the way the flower competes with her eyes for the viewer's attention.

Guiding light

full marks to you for persistence! I cant imagine how long it took - flicking the laser torch on and off, and getting the geometry of it all just right. A very nice entry overall.

Not quite sure this meets the brief of the challenge....wrt nonstationary light source.
