I like it too. I think a different crop would have been better. Maybe a longer crop. I would also get rid of the pelican in the background because it ruins the shot for me. The photo is very clear but possibly a little bright.

WOW Judi, are you on a roll or what!! Thought this was yours, had the trademark pose. I'm going to have to visit soon and hope that some of your photographic genius rubs off one me. ;)

Beautiful shot. Love how the background sort of flows into out-of-focus.

Say Hellooooo to Mr Goede

Hmmmm. Interesting portrait. I dont think it quite fits the challenge but good photo all the same. I see you've used a lense that distorts the portrait. This is interesting in a good and unconventional way. Looks like someone on the other side of the door looking through the peephole. I guess that I was hoping to see something that is markedly disassociated from the rest of the picture. The subject takes up about 80% of the frame not leaving much room for isolating it from the rest of the scene. Thats why I feel it doesn't really meet the challenge for me.

Cat on Black

The cat dissovles a little too well into the backgound. A bit more lighting to define the cat would have been better.

Well I am glad I read the title because otherwise I would have said DNMC. OK so it does meet the challenge but I dont find it interesing.

I dont like this shot. The donut looks horrible. But it is a good contrast and that is what the challenge is all about.

Coll's Farm - December

What a lovely shot. Almost perfect for me. I would clone out the tree (and maybe the flagpole?) although I know that you cant do it in this challenge.

Hot and Sweet

Nice colour contrast. Maybe the chillies could have been rearranged. The apples could also have been a tad greener. Good idea all in all.
