A beautiful image and well composed.I have never worked with an infra-red filter but I really like the effect that it gives. I read some of the comments that others have made, especially the ones about not meeting the challenge. If your like me I really don't worry about my score, but care about people liking the image I present. This image is definitely a winner. Great job.

This is a georgeous photo, for someother challenge. I love the effect the sepia tone had on the tree. But it is not a photo of a hidden Waldo! And that is the challenge. But do I ever love that weeping willow tree. that is really neat.

A pleasant gentle image. The cottony leaves contrast well to the bold trunk and branches. Although the water highlights command much attention fromthe viewer they do suit the high key image. Waldo is not disguised in the foto which may dock you a few points from other voters. But not me. A long time exposure with a ghost waldo would be an interesting possibility, too. A good solid image.

Nice infrared. And you've met the challenge, it isn't exactly hard to spot him on that bench, but it is a person in an otherwise person-less photo. I like the composition and the placement of your objects. The dark tree trunk against the (almost) white leaves is nice, and the guy on the bench is nicely framed by it. I'm not too sure about your choice of color, I think personally, I'd prefer a b&w approach, but I'd have to see it to be sure.

This is a wonderful infrared photo, those leaves have come out great! Waldo wasn't too difficult to find though, I found his hiding place immediately :-) You did well on this one!

Very clear photo. Is "Waldo" the person on the bench? If so, that's not very hidden, don't you think? (Please PM me if I'm wrong. Tell me the real waldo location and the photo name and I will update this comment and score.) I really like the willow tree, very cool. 5 Swash

Well it didn't take long to find the "hidden" person, but other than that it's a nice photo. The leaves of the trees have a great texture to them. Composition is also very good. I really like the shades and textures though - there is so much to look at. Good work - except for the "hide" aspect.

Very nice. Would be perfect if character was a little less obvious IMO. 8
