Oh and everyone can compare/critique images here to their hearts content now

[Alpha_7]

Thanks again MHD for your work with the challenges! It's much appreciated by us all!

Well well, I was completely off the mark once again. Images I thought I knew who had taken turned out to be more wrong than ever.

[Alpha_7]

I didn't pick your Shots Matt.

Only a few of them I was on the mark.. and I think they were the really obvious ones...

I must say it's interesting already reading the comments, as some I liked or disliked are very different to what others felt... I guess that's what makes is so interesting, I'm sure the top 10 will be full of surprises.

[stubbsy]

While I was right on a few I was more wrong than not. I figured Matt's was one of Chris's (sirch55) for sure I think it's important we all go and leave comments too.

Quite right! I've started the long process as well, might take me a few days!

[owen]

I'll be going through the images making comments later this evening, but I find it interesting reading the comments and some of the methods that were used to get the actual shots.

Cheers,
OWen.

Glen figured that too when I met him in the Rocks the other day. I had to keep up the pretence that I thought it was Chris too

My fav one is by Dion (20DDionM). Why, because it is a simple and clean images that show movement. All the best Dion

Doesn't sound like I'll do that well (eg top 10) from the comments on my shot.

I was incredibly pleased with my entry, but can somewhat see the lack of movement people see in it. Goes to show even with a simple straightforward one word theme, personal interpretations can still differ a fair bit.

Pippin, I still gave your shot a big score, just providing feedback that it wasn't what I expected or envisaged from a movement challenge. Your caption perhaps could of gone further into expressing your idea.

As I said elsewhere I marked this down because I didn't get the movement angle (and who am I to talk - look at my city skyline shot!), but at the end of the day I'd rate this as one of the best images I've seen from you - and you've produced some bloody good work. There will always be times when exceptionally good shots don't win challenges because they don't grab evrryone as being to the theme. This doesn't mean the image is a bad one. Another example that fits the same category is Paul's (LostDingo) excellent sunrise shot.

[MCWB]

Nick, I wouldn't be so sure. I loved your shot, gave it one of my top marks!

Thanks again to Scott for hosting and administering all this...

Can I echo the encouragement for everyone who entered or voted to go into the site and comment on the images... There's been many more comments than normal already this time and I find them quite illuminating / entertaining...

I tried very very hard to comment on every entry, but I must admit I skipped a couple due to lack of inspiration (on my part not yours)...

Have a look at the images again and say the first thing that comes into your mind...

[Alpha_7]

I've been sick at home, with too much time on my hands, so I've tried to comment on most of the shots, and will make another pass a little later. I too encourage everyone to leave some feedback, the idea of the challenge is to learn and improve and it can only be done by sharing information be it opinons, comments or critcisms.

Thanks Scott for hosting and John for leaving comments so thoroughly. I agree, the comments are great and very helpful, to me personally.
