Cute - is Nelly a Whippet?

What luck, I initially thought it was a boat.

Saturation is really impressive....

Love

Very cool concept and composition. This picture has a lot of character to it from the wood to the distressed barbed wire.

Cool photo. And hey, AC/DC rocks!

great

good photo

Very interesting, almost a 3D effect! Good luck author!

It could do with a levels adjustment

Well done.

Like the idea - would have been nicer if the horizon was straight

Very nice. I like this one's composition a lot. A little soft around the hole's edges, though

Very nice. Might crop a little closer

Took me a while to figure out the body parts too.

A tiny bit dark, but I love this picture... childhood at its best!

Haha, I need to get my eyes checked. I thought the girl on the far right had overly muscular arms. I had to stare for about 30 seconds before I realized it was the girl's legs to her right. Great group shot though and on theme.

Great smiles

Author, to get rid of the vignette, try shortening the tube a bit to allow more of the image to fall on the sensor. Also, take sandpaper (very fine) to hone the edges of the tube at the cut-off end. It appears your 'lens' or hole is very jagged...try re doing the hole with a fine sewing needle very carefully as irregularities will result in poor focus...GL

Author, you description needs to include whether done in camera or post-processing....thank you

great angel

looks like he is enjoying playing there

Also, with backlight, it's best if you use a flash so the face isn't so dark

You are welcome

A lovely photo, Personally I would crop a bit off the right and the top.

It's nice, but I think if you crop up to about the collar bone it would put more emphasis on the mask and face

Sounds like it's not your preference, have you tried rotating it 90 degrees to the right?
Looks even better.

Beautiful model.

Looks much better. Good Luck!

Very nice. I agree with the above, but I'd crop just a bit from the left

Well done author - I like the lighting , specially on the smoke

great lighting

maybe this is what they're saying: "why are we doing this again?"
"we look ridiculous"
haha, funny catch author

Nice colors

very!

I love this! well done

well done

Congrats smokebigbird good entry here.

So yet again, same thing being said just more words and unecessary. If you think it's off them then red flag it.
Nice shot author!

I also agree, it is a nice photo, but a boat on a bank doesn't exactly make me feel lonely. There is no vastness to swallow me whole because the boat is on land. A boat on land usually signifies being safe and being home, not exactly a lonely feeling to me.

Beautiful, great light and framing.

I was being funny, guess I failed?

Congrats, It's a beautiful photo, and it seems I was wrong about thinking it was Off Theme. I had hedged my feeling by giving it a high score.

author............can you honestly see this image going down in history as unforgettable. it is meant to be a shot which will stay in your mind for years and remind you of the film each time you see it, or each time you hear of it, the image will come into your mind......sorry, but imo, this will not do it.

That is a real horror, NO lipstick, next it will be no mascara LOL

it's a red tabby, they rule the world.. and love to swat at the universe

I'm going to get in trouble for this. It's a great shot, but totally off theme.
I have red flagged it twice.
Goal was "The whole feather should be visible and be the main object in your shot."

Nice shot, GL!

great shot

nice pic, but does not portray 'lonely'................ quiet, yes, solitude, yes.............but lonely.........imo, no.
