La sciarpa rossa

Is this a multiple or long exposure? There seems to be a "ghost" of a piece of fabric of some sort. Perhaps you mean for it to represent an "unveiling" or something, but to me, I find it distracting and confusing. :-/

I think this shot might be much improved with a longer exposure, to highlight the sparks more. Just a stop or two, to be compensated with aperture or a neutral density filter. Still, I like it.

Presuming that your subject is the light post, and not something more subtle that I'm missing, I think this shot would be greatly improved (especially within the context of this challenge) by taking it sometime when the light was actually on... Generally, though, I'm finding this image to be just too busy to know what to look at, really -- which perhaps is your point?

Nice use of a fresnel lens. It seems a bit dirty, which is unfortunate, because this could otherwise be a really great image, I think.

That's an awful lot of negative space on the left side of the frame... This would work much better, in my eye, cropped down almost (but not quite) in half. I do like the reflection and lighting and such, but... the composition just isn't working for me.

A little cropping (top and right) would, in my opinion, do wonders for this image... I like the lighting and contrast and such, though.

black!!! (yes, that's a good title)

So, the challenge asked for an image that was a "mostly dark image, with few highlights". I imagine you're just being contrary, but I don't feel that the slight noise in your black here (which I don't see with my eyes, but the computer tells me it's there) really count. :-P

The table I find to be very distracting in this image...

Not sure I have anything more to add to that, except my agreement. :-)
