2nd place
Time Passing by coram9

purmusic: Add me to the list that enjoy your image here.

And..

Been trying to figure out whether or not you did some stuff in post processing, or.. shot this one through something?

(There are elements in/of the bokeh that add to this mystery of sorts, to my eyes and mind.)

I don't think, and I could be wrong.. that simply dialing in the DOF is the visual result of what we are seeing within frame.


Like Bethany above, a part of me does wish to see more of.. as in, a wider/deeper DOF.

On the note of sharpening, and in my humble opinion ... clarity and focus, as is ... and presented, with respect to the areas in focus ... are fine.

Exposure is good good. Composition as well.


Very nice shot and one that would keep me looking at it for some.. ahem ... time. There's lots to like and take in, despite it's simplicity.

3rd place
A Month in the Life of the Moon by Akeraios

purmusic: Really nice work, Hannah.


If I may.. composition.

In my humble opinion, think you could make some 'minor' (on the notes of your concept and overall presentation) changes.

Moon ... smaller.

Allowing for the Xaos fractal to provide stronger leading lines within frame, prodding your viewer's eyes to look into your piece.. deeper. As they are a nice touch.

Add some more depth, in short.

And in turn, knock down the moon's prominence (visual weight), too.


Will summarize my thoughts here.. in a popular phrasing..

'+favs for me.'


Best of luck in the contest with this very strong creative contender. :o)

5th place
A Time to Remember by johindes

icedancer: What a touching and beautiful tribute to the fallen soldiers that lost their lives in Afghanistan.

100k_xle: So sorry to hear the bad news of War Casualties. Way too young to die so soon. I'll say a Prayer for them.
