    C&C For all:
    ScionDriver's is technically good but perhaps unengaging, in my opinon.
    My own suffers from a fuzzy detail and is overly bright.
    Derek's has an excellent subject and is well framed, kudos.
    Aiasib suffers from fuzzyness also, but the technical aspects I can appreciate.
    Whiteballz has a pretty decent shot, I voted for this.
    SavageDuck has again excellent subject matter, I'm not the biggest HDR fan, I think it detracts here.
    Timothy suffers from fuzzyness and is off centre. great idea though.
    and Pimento's shot is noisy but fairly well composed.

    Of course these is my opinion, and c&c is welcome in return. This is a very well stocked competition and I'm really pleased with everyone's results.

    Yeah, I had difficulties with D.O.F.; the slightest jitter at that sub-millimeter range caused considerable change in focal points due to the freehand jerry-rigged setup I had going.

    One thing about the general comps, you can always count on girls or HDR take steal the show. God knows what would happen if photo included HDR girls

    Thanks to IB4R for the heads up but I still think:

    possibly there is something about SC's shots that doesnt work, like the position of the girl which create a weird angle. Still good enough to be a strong contender I think.

    Yea, my camera's pretty old and not great in low/contrasting light. The reason I was down there at night was because my friend has a blog going where she takes a picture of a thing once a week and asked me to take part, so I figured I'd do the ol' bridge thing. I forgot a few weeks ago, so I wandered down the night I remembered. Usually I use my camera phone.

    Oh, this week it is too hard indeed, but I have finally voted for derekthetree's entry - it is a reminder of my good vacation this year, although the place is not much similar. I just miss summer already.
