LOL- you caught the face. Good observation! A tighter crop might direct more people to the "punch line."

REally like the colors and the strong shadows causing repeating patterns. Only little nitpick I have is the dark shadow to the right of the lantern shadow. I would've tried to clone (although I am not very good at that, and all the lines are going to be difficult). Regardless, really nice entry for this challenge.

Terrific composition of light, texture & colour. It's simple at first glance, but actually has a charm and harmony that the thoughful viewer cannot dismiss easily; it really rewards a few moments' study, which I think is a sure sign of a very fine photograph. 9.

I dont see what this picture is trying to convey. why was the shadow of the light chosen as the focus of the picture. technically, the picture is fine, but on an artistic point, it doesnt invoke anything within me. 3

Excellent use of light and shadow to add a confusing touch to your image. The border is overdone though. 7.

I like this. The shadow of the lamp makes it. Good luck

I like this a lot. It is quite the perfect compostion, nothing distracts from the eye, texture and color all work well together.

This I like as an abstract. I'm not sure about the blackened right lower corner, and to some extent preserving some of the details from the trees would work better, but overall it's a grand shot with nice color contrasts and a warm feeling.

Cool and simple. I like the yellow tones with the deep blue sky. This is graphic and has a geometry to it.
