    Testing my own comments…

    IMO, entry 2,3,7,8 are the strongest.

    I think entry 2 is the most striking…i like how the horse and girl contort into each other, taking on the same tone as well. would like to see a little more of the figure before it gets cropped off.

    I really like the “molten lead” look of the ocean in entry 3…i miss seeing that in person. entry 3 lighting is rather eery, but interesting. I like the contrast of the hotspot on the horse with the vignette in background. The details fo the underside of the horse’s neck are amazing

    great composition and feeling of movement in entry 7.

    great shot in entry 8 as well, although the vignetting in the top edge of the frame seems a little too heavy. beautiful emerald green in the truck.

    entry 5,6 are great shots, but seem entirely commercial… not quite as memorable as others.

    great stuff…great technique.

    I also like the sailing shots in an earlier post…those are pretty original, I thought.
