Good, bad - start over?

    interesting shots but I really wouldn't have gotten it without the title... I don't think they have a lot of wow factor... Good luck, this is the big one, and competition is pretty stiff!

    Thanks for your honest opinion. I want to get that WOW factor, too... and you're right - it's gonna be tough with the competition.

    of the three images the first one is the best. Although I have to agree with winston...without the title I would have been scratching my head to context of the theme.headscratch.gif It is a tough competition. Best of luck to you!

    15524779-Ti.gif with everything that's been said. #1 is the best of the lot, but the theme is too subtly captured. Best of luck to you! thumb.gif

    watch out for the refection in the globe, make sure there isnt any in it...imo

    the salt looks like crack or ice at first...though i have never seen crack dont go by me....:D ne_nau.gifrolleyes1.gif

    maybe a giant load of table salt and set the globe in it. kinda like a beach...ne_nau.gif

    The worst part of table salt and making the pile, is that when the globe sits on it, you don't get the reflection of the sky - it picks up the white from the salt. Where that's OK, it doesn't give much definition to the subject.

    Thanks to all of you for the comments.
