Judges Comment: A superb image. The fog on the water is really well done and I love the bride on the rock and the movement in the clouds. Technically and aesthetically this is a winner.
Judges Comment: Really strong graphic image created by the repeating circular lines from the braces of the tunnel. Excellent job and very strong image.
Judges Comment: The composition is very strong and I love that the subject is walking away. Great contrast and detail throughout. Another excellent image.
Judges Comment: Love all the detail in this HDR rendering. The location is great and I really like the holes in the roof and the sense of texture. Nice composition and another excellent execution.
Judges Comment: There is strong graphic appeal created by the repeating patterns in the background. Good gesture with the man and excellent detail everywhere.
Judges Comment: Love the movement captured in the water. Nice graphic appeal and good composition.
Judges Comment: Simple and clean with nice graphic appeal and really nice tone in the sky. Strong composition.
Judges Comment: Again, very simple but very clean. Love the bend to the right in the tree. NIce color and tone.
Judges Comment: Love the clouds and the white sand. Strong image but wish that there was a bit more detail in the dress and in the sand especially on the right side.
Judges Comment: The background and foreground help create a very graphic image. Good detail in all the whites and blacks and nice composition.
Judges Comment: The fog is really nice and works very well. Nice color and nice detail in the whites. The image could use a bit more detail in the faces but again a really nice image.
Judges Comment: The ladies in the window on the right are a great touch. The image has humor and gesture and is well composed with very good detail throughout.
Judges Comment: Love all the white space. So simple and extremely clean and graphic.
Judges Comment: I really like all the very dark tones while maintaining detail just about everywhere. Nice composition and nice job.
Judges Comment: Dramatic contrast with good detail in all the whites and darks. I like the specular highlights and like that the bride is walking away from the camera. There are some lines in the lower right that are distracting and should have been retouched which would have made this image even stronger.
Judges Comment: Nice soft tones of color in the skin juxtaposed with the sepia black and white. The clouds add drama and there is good detail throughout.
Judges Comment: Great backlight and graphic image with just enough detail in the bride and groom's face.
Judges Comment: The tree and dark sky create a very graphic backdrop. The dress would benefit from a bit more detail but very nice shot.
Judges Comment: I really like the bicycles in the background which aid the composition. Good tone and detail.
Judges Comment: Strong composition and good graphic image. Like the high contrast look. The image would be even stronger if there was a bit more detail in the dress.
