    Excellent Bill. Impressed with the composition of 1 and 2 SOOC.

    Thanks, Greg... I'm pretty partial to #1 for now. Everything was handheld and bracketed for this challenge. There were a lot of throwaways from this Father's Day outing with my daughter (22) and her boyfriend. But the day was definitely a keeper!

    Very nice all. I like more #2 and #4 and #1 in this order.

    #2 was really eyecatching when I scrolled down to it! Love it. Also, expressions in #3 are great, but I'd probably get rid of the left side if it wasn't a SOOC contest. #1 is really interesting subject, I don't think I've ever looked at one of those up close, but instead of admiring the crispness and exposure, I was reading "swell to great", "choir to great", and "grand diapason" etc. and wondering what they mean.

    I guess I'm the only one that thinks #4 - #2 - #1. #3 is just too snapshotty <-- not a word.

    I like #1 and #2 with a slight nod to 1 over 2. Great composition and selective DOF.

    I like #1 and #2 the best leaning towards #2 a bit more because of the composition and patterns.

    I'm a fan of #2 and #4, though I wish #4 was in B&W.

    I'm going for #2, then #1 - like the way they fill the frame, but in #1 I'm slightly distracted by the organ wood jutting in at the top, even though I know it provides context...(but I think the organ keys alone would be enough too). #2 is clear and nice angle. GP

    Thanks everyone. Still flipping a coin between #1 and #2. I'll probably do a bit more shooting this weekend, but one of the first two will likely be my choice.

    I really like #2 the best. (#1 is nice, but #2 is more interesting to me and holds my gaze longer.)

    I love the composition in #2 and also find #1 very intriguing with the curve and colors of the stop tabs. I'm a big fan of pipe organs.
