First impressions for what they are worth with the brain going (if you call it that) at 5:15 a.m.
J Michael Sullivan - Lowes parking lot: Study in Yellow and Blue
Different, I like the angles and the title is true, Yellow & Blue
David Dyer-Bennet - Asian Forest Tortoise at Minnesota Zoo
Good shot of the tortoise, they aren't usually that cooperative
Peeter Vissak - Yggdrasill revisited
Very interesting, black & white pictures are hard for me to take an interest in but i like the lighting and direction, plus the hunk of ice tells about the weather :)
Mark Harris - Breast Cancer Ribbon
Overall I like this, but I would have tried to get rid of that upper right corner, shoot closer in or crop it. Very nice idea though.
Emily L. Ferguson - abandoned
I like this one, curved pattern, still not sure if I like the space to the right without the metal curves or if I would have cropped it to the curves.
Christopher Strevens - Let me straighten my hair!
He reminds me of what I would picture as a captain of a Russian fishing trawler, a good natured fellow who is expressive and wants to make a good impression for the camera.
Roy Miller - House under attack from nature
Maybe the outside leaves are trying to rescue the plants on the windowsill :) Interesting idea.
Elson T. Elizaga - Rice and Steak
Very nice photo, the meal is nicely portrayed and it even sound delicious at this hour.
