Definately on theme to me - not sure what is happening with that yellow ring around candle flame? Great idea but somehow the lines of the background are detracting from your subjects

Lol - Oh dear - nearly had one of these moments on the weekend - was glad to show the 4x4 drivers up though!

Well done author!!!

I agree Jawshoewah - amazing shot - looks to me like HDR too. A 'shining example' of the theme

I personally cqan't see why HDR is unacceptable as long as it's on theme - it's a widely accepted form, but in this case I can see no lens flare

Good one - too many times have I hit the delete button only for wanting the shot back later! Now I just keep the Raw image - never delete Raw as I keep these as my 'negatives'

OMG - those shoes and bling are to die for!!!

Nice pic... even though clown wanna make me puke. I would probably crop a little of the dead area from the top - just above the jumping castle.

Wonder who this is lol Nicely done - love the reflections

The blurry bars in the foreground are distracting and dtract from the overall image

I'm not sure I like the POV - taken from a different angle would have given you a nice leading line/diagonal

The high res shows a lot of colour fringing (lens aberration) particularly over areas that are dark with light b/ground which I find is common in some zoom lenses at the long end. It can be corrected in software. Overall it's nice - it looks like you have a 'Topaz' filter over it - correct me if I am wrong.

I agree - the subject is hard to distinguish andloses its brillance amongst the 'rubble'

I like this better than the original. Good one

Good one

The saturation looks a little overcooked in the sky

There is no detail in the highlights (waves) - highlights have blown out. You could try the recovery slider if you have it in your software.

Good entry. Personally I would crop out the uninteresting sky to just above the dark rock formation. I don't think you need the sky to show the 'wind' element - especially with those wicked waves.

nicely done

Like th blue in the water - it reminds me of a restaurant in my old hometown (Geelong)

I think most buildings are placed adjacent to streets. The theme says taking pictures in the street not of the street so in my opinion it fits.

Nice - love the pink

IMHO it could do with a crop at the top. The eye is automatically led to the light but in this case the light is both at the top and bottom so a little distracting

nice - the theme says any sort of track so i think it fits the theme I'm sure a trail is still a track

Actually the theme says any sort of track!

lovely

Yes - definately need to fix the horizon

wicked!

Nice lines

Cool - Corio Bay

Still - it might pay to keep the organizer in case you get CRAFT disease (Can't remember a F@#ing Thing) :-P

Nice take on theme... no points for music taste though lol :-P

OMG Atari- i had this as a kid - just like the one in the front!

Nice - well done

Yay!!

Ditto

Can relate to this one

Nice - I agree although I don't get too much done now I have dSLR

coz she can!

Cute

Oh my - looks like Telstra has been around to do the work!

OMG - 9 kids - she deserves a golden gown

Well done!

I would also sugest a levels adjustment to darken the shadow a little - the use of the cracks in the paint could have given you a broken heart

Nice idea - well done

Seen it before - but great shot anyway

It's a little OOF

Cute budding photographer

Blwong bubbles is definately an activity a 2 month old would be doing - I think it's on theme considering the age. Looks a bit like 'Dragan' processing - nice.

Nice
