The oreos look delicious but the photo is spoiled by all that added noise. I can see a plain background without noise behind the oreos and then a definite line around them where the noise starts.

Classic...lovely....well rendered.

I think that this photo in monochrome :rocks: ! She is going downhill as are the buildings through the windows.

Ooooh good, you're faster than your shadow

You can just take off your name (profile - my entries - replace image), same with the other photo(s) you have entered in other contest themes

Hi Claire, very good photo. You should read the rules of the game though, it is not allowed to mark your photos as the contest must remain anonymous...

Oh how I wish this was in better sharpness but the idea is there and thank you for the view.

Don't you just love the contests here on this site, they make us look everywhere to find beauty. It is the story here that pulls me into your photograph and your title takes it further. Could have been a bit sharper as you lose focus on the right sock but overall the tonality is fine and the crop is good also.

This camera just has to belong to a female, it is pretty in presentation and sharp and clear to look at. You need to polish your lens, looks like it is fogged up.

I asked a question about that underneath the contest theme description, on the first page, but never got any reply...

Congrats for these

CONGRATS ON THIS TRIPLE CROWN win.

Congrats Heathcliffe, another sweep too :0

Nice shot. Congrats on the sweep, too!

Your 5 proposals are very well made and make us travel back in time but you have a little diverted the theme of the contest which was: "Use one of your photos and photograph the scene again".

Nice balance to this image....sharp without over processing (ahem), just like it...colourful.

Nice presentation once again. ....through and through.

Great marketing presentation, nicely set up....Yes I would buy these chocolate balls, they are stimulating my appetite....thank you very much!

A great marketing presentation. I bet Windsor and Newton would purchase this...or have they already. I'm studying your high pass technique and you are gooooooood.

Ok I will remember that and be more careful. Thank you for speaking with me Heathcliffe.

OK I think I might be going too heavy on my high pass....it's like a new toy for me. If you wouldn't mind when you see entries that seem a tad over sharpened to your eye can you mention it in your review....most likely they will be mind. Thanks. Think I have to be more careful.

Yes, can you provide the link for me. I look at these photos ....gosh they are all dead, like we will be some day. Life clips along.

So deserve this win...CONGRATS.

Did you use high pass to sharpen? IF so what percentage? Thanks

Congratulations on this exquisite win.

This contest was made for you. Thank you for these thought provoking posts.

Ahhhmazing, your SBS is really clear. I love getting lost in your photos the make me feel like a time traveler. Thank you.

Unbelievable how this fits in. You get my vote and this is truly a blast from the past.

Well done again for winning

Congrats Heathcliffe

Gosh I see that now and THANK YOU .

Again a blast from the past , it looks real and well done.

Ohhhh how I wish you had given a bit of a story to this mysterious image. One says HALT the other says STOP. This is a blast from the past. Is it really the same road?

Congrats again Heathcliffe

Congrats Heathcliffe

Congrats again Heathcliffe, well done

Congrats Heathcliffe, terrific shot

Yes simple but effective

No you are not and no the trees are not sharp

Lovely warm colours - but am I going boss eyed - the trees don't seem sharp.

purrrrrrrfect. Love this one, sharp and clear and eye catching.

same comment as previous shot

like your title and usage of dof. Cleverly done.

Wow wow and WOW. You have a lot going for you in this striking photo. The stairs welcome the viewer to go up but first we are embraced on either side by stunningly green hues and what a surprise to find more green at the top of the stairs. The image is sharp as a razor with full tonal range of gray zone. Simply a winner.

Congrats for winning

Congrats!

YOU DID IT! Numbero uno, congratulations, great shot

Congrats Heathcliff, nice shot

Stunning. Beautiful work.
