How is this chaos?

This is cute, but I have no idea why it would be "chaos"

I would shoot myself if I lived somewhere where I had to deal with that everyday. Sometimes we have to wait a couple of minutes if a cow has broken out though

Just goes to show how dangerous ice cream can be

I like this one. Good composition, it isn't just a snapshot of an ornament

Nice. I like the black and white. Might crop a bit off the top and right so it isn't so centered

That's a cool looking plant. I've never heard of pigeon berries. Are the edible?

VERY nice. Did you check it out rotated 90 degrees?

Good thinking. Cool shot. Might crop a bit off of one side or the other so it isn't quyite so centered

Hrmmm... I never knew "6's" were stainless

"Mellow yellow" was heroin

Of cooouuuurse they're for tobacco only. Why, who would possibly think of using them for anything else?!

Back when cars had class

VERY cool shot! might crop a little off the bottom

Very nice... might look cool if you rotated it 90 degrees clockwise

Cool... there's a REAL "chrome dome"

I like the bubbles

nice macro... a shame about the shadow though

You name your broaches?

Nice job not having your own reflection be too intrusive. Might crop a little from the left, and just a tiny bit from the top. Cool shot, though

This DOES seem like chaos!

ahhhh, ok. Thanks for the info

Very, VERY nice (but I think the title should be "Pandora's Box." )

hooray... an entry! Good Luck

Maybe it's Al Gore's.

I think this is off-theme. It says you can't show what originally was packed in the box. This is how my kids came.

Keep him in the box... he looks pretty fearsome!

Nice one. What is that? Oil?

Beautiful shot. Might check cropping a little off the right, and a bit more off the left to make it more vertically oriented which would emphasize the shape of the rainbow. But really nice shot even without.

Well... Granny definitely seems to be a good sport. Good for her!

I think it's a really nice shot, as I said in the beginning. But the point is, that with so many (not all) entries in the contest, there needs to be some elaborate description describing how we need to imagine something, or what could be happening, or what something represents, in order to make it be on theme. If you showed many of these entries to a stranger and said, "What does this represent?" They would NOT say anything about "painfully letting go of something," or even words that would imply that. They would say "there's some people walking, or sitting there - or, someone is letting a balloon float away." It is a nice shot, though.

Beautiful shot

awwwww... poor little guy. You monster - not letting him have exactly what he wants when he wants it!

It's a little hard to see the ones inside. Maybe have passenger with a raised (alarmed) hand/arm. But, very good job

So, we're supposed to imagine that a (huge) kid's hand and that they accidently let go?

Looks like a kid looking out the window

Good example of the theme

Good job. Removed previous comment to preserve anonymity GL

Just see two kids sittin' there

That looks like a lot of fun!

Cute kid. I remember how heavy those diapers got when we let our kids play in the surf

This looks much, much better cropped. GL

Nice, but I think a closer crop would help it

1400km and they still have the energy to jump? I'd be dead by the side of the road somewhere

That's a cool shot, but it looks more like "lifting" than "jumping"

I don't know. It looks like he was standing in shallow water and lept forward. Note how the water is following his feet.

Great catch! That guy in the background adds a lot too

Great catch. Might crop just a little off the right

They look happy!

Nice one. Seems to show his anxiety
