THANK YOU A SQUIGILLION TIMES for your description. Your photo is educational and well caught. I was told that you were not allowed to photograph this spiritual practice. How did you manage this? I like the balance of dancers and then in the background how 'the band' steadies the image visually. Also, the bit of blur (movement) is simply perfect, wouldn't want it any other way. Great upload.

Gosh I love these kind of graveyards. In the west, only a few stones are so engraved with a portrait. I see Bohdan left his wife in widowhood 9 years ago and she is already 71 (getting there). It is nice to see the crosses (not orthodox). The photo is clear and chock a block full of story that we can easily see.

Thank you, for some reason the first link did not show the bottom part of the source.

Can you provide us with the source for the stage and speakers on the stage please.

Awwww now why didn't you ask him to grimace and put some emotion into the shot? Great perspective.

Woo Hoo!

Very fun

The clarity on this one is much better and the monochromatic feel suits it just fine!

congrats for this

It is nice how most all the chess pieces are in focus and our eyes gravitate to them. I do think there is a slight tilt to the right giving an unstable feel, also a bit more exposure would pop this photo and add a needed brightness. The diagonal bar at the left grabs our attention and takes away from the chess board game. The warmth of the photo is felt and we get the sense this is a treasured chess set.

I love your title! Yes, there is a dizzying feel to this upload with the king and queen sharp and diffusion all-round creating that watery feel. The colour palette is warm in hues of orange and a diagonal slant adds to the beauty of your photo. The POV is appropriate albeit ordinary.

aha

I don't see the common goal.. one is riding the other.

Loved this one, congrats.

It is a nice entry.... a 4th place is not bad....

I do like what you're doing here. It's looks like a religious mix up caught in a medieval triptych which you find in a lot of christian churches.

Result of the survey: one cowboy out of 6 does not have a horse

This is the kind of failure that I would like to take every day

Great minds think alike! (though fools seldom differ)

oooohhhh nice one and you got it in at the last minute. I like the colour palette.

I meant to say place the whole "statue" either side. Work the perspective some too. Just my 2 cents worth.

Maybe mask the statue and place it either side, work on the shadowing.

The cut in half statue doesn't work for me at all. I think the scene would look much better without it.

If those statues are meant to be a gateway or something they need to have thickness.

Clever you to see this and shoot it.

uh oh....you can read my mind!?

OH MY, I don't think this is a failure because you capture movement so well and look at the colour palette...wow. The colours compliment red and green with yellow's excitement up on the canvas. NOPE this is not a failure ....I love it

The leaves look like they are in motion giving this a breezy feel.

Ahhh the horizon line is razor straight! I like how the colours of the rainbow are the highlight of this shot.

I do think that a different crop would enhance this image versus the centered position. Nice sharpness on the 'bird'!...and good colour (realistic) saturation.

Good point of view to come down to this fish's eye level.

This is a nice a clear underwater scene and I like your border on this as it holds everything in for us.

Nice with the vignette around it too! A centered composition is your choice.

It's a rose not roses

You tripped?

What grass were you smoking?

I really like the abstract quality to this. I bet if you put this through a "paint" filter it would make a smack on great painting. Never mind, it makes a great photo too! I like how the twigs of the surrounding area seem to be pointing towards the jewels...and your title is great.

ewwww, this is wonderful it says "stay away from me, or else" ! Your image is sharp and clear and I like the pencil border to hold everything in for us.

I like the panoramic upload of this image and it surely shows the beauty of the clouds, their softness is well seen. You also have included a good focal anchor with the boat and the crop of land further pulls us into the image. The image is sharp and you have no dust spots on your sensor! Lovely and oozes a feeling of calm.

I appreciate all the help I can get, thank you. I pressed the green button.

Hurry!!!!

Source 10 is no stock, as CMYK already mentions. DA images are only allowed if they are posted in their stock section.

Please adjust this

If I forget the green button does that mean you don't get the message that I'm talking to you?

.......on the way to Cappadocia...ahh haa!

good solid shot! Is that Qantas?

o o o o o o o o o o o ohoohoo ohhhooo goooooooood one!

Love your entry, but source 10 isn't a stock image. Use ONLY this URL when searching DA for images. http://www.deviantart.com/browse/all/resources/stockart/
Even then some authors place restrictions on useage.
I'm sure you can find a useable replacement.

Beep Bloop Blup Boink Whizzzz Bang!!!

The background is not very valuing...

Good catch to see this as it is almost monochrome with colour selection. I like it.
