Nice entry - GL

Great one

Nice one .... did you use a slow shutter speed lol

Well done Lamantine.... still want to know what you were doing in the alcohol section at your age lol!!

No worries - thanks author & well done on your 2nd place

It's a pretty big call to call someone a cheat publicly 04mehul. It would be more helpful to do some homework first.

Awesom shot - good luck author. Can't say I have heard of the "Kenelly-Heavyside Effect" either, so off to google I go to further my education too

I'm not sure what is with the background of this shot. It looks like some half completed Photoshop work on the l/h side of the '3' and again above the crescent. It is more noticeable in the high res.

I agree with Wiseman on this and selective adjustments aren't supposed to be in Photography contests. Correct us if we are wrong.

I have to agree with the author on this one

Looks like part of a window blind

Good One author

LOL @ itsmymoment. Every home should have one of these

Actually - I like it. It doesn't appear OOF to me. The focus is in the middle and there is some high ISO noise . Some of the yellow lights have blown out a bit but I like it - it gives you the carny atmosphere and I can almost hear the associated noise that goes with the carny rides

Ripper

Nice one author

Lovely - never seen a ferris wheel as pretty as this. Bit of noise in the sky - you could probably do some noise reductiion without losing too much detail

Awesome - is it a HDR?

Nice one... what were you doing in the cellar?? :-P

Yes - I like it without the fill-flash - it does look like it was framed intentionally dark. Like it

Forget the bread lol! Wine and cheese goes down well

I would have liked to see a bit more space in the frame between the boat and the edge of the l/h side. ie. The composition may have been a bit better as he was rowing into the frame rather than out - he would have had that nice light from the sun too. Nice effort though

Nice - like the contrasting coulour in the beach toys

Netball

Ditto on the blur - with the shallow DOF it looks like the only thing in focus is a patch of grass in the middle left

I like the desaturated colour in this. I have used desat rather than B&W at times and I think it works for this

Nice one author. It gave me the same feeling as Busmav. You are certainly getting better at this

It is a lovely shot but off theme - there are animals in it

awesome - love the colours and the sheds foundations

So are the mountains in the background I think this would have been nicer with a straighter horizon.

I like the OOF grass too - I might have cropped the blown out sun though

Can't have those air-cons getting out of their enclosure and running around wild lol Good one

I think grfc just means that the fence is middle of the run and not really the main subject for this contest but it would would make a beautiful entry in something else - especially with that sky and mountains, it would standout on it's own in a landscape contest. Beautiful colours - I can feel that crisp clean air

I agree with the cropping suggestion! The OOF leaf is rather distracting

Not sure about the sepia either - not enough contrast perhaps?

Friiskiwi - I don't think you are supposed to identify your own work in the contests!!

Good one

Nice straight horizon too

Nice one - love the b/ground fireman

well done - good news article too

Wow - didn't think these little 'milk-bars' existed anymore... 'spose this one nearly didn't

Showing your age

Awesome!

Interesting!

Nice one - should have cleaned the dirt mark above the blue flower beforehand though. Lovely colours, good DOF though

Dramatic indeed!

Nice one!

Well done - nice find.

I would too

Nice one
