Well the winner for the Fairhope, AL photowalk was announced:

winner


Needless to say, I didn't win. But that ok, it was fun and I'm pleased with the shots I took. I'd be interested in what this group has to say about that picture...



If you'd like to see winners from other cities you can visit the Worldwide Photowalk site and look for the list of participating cities. Somewhere on each, the winner (or a link to it) should be posted.
Enjoy!

Very nice. Checked out your Flickr stream, and I like the color versions of the shipwreck even more.

I like it, but I honestly don't know what to say about it.

Nice one. Really love those colors! The idea is nifty too!

Viewing it on my phone, so don't know about technicals... But I think it could use a significant crop on the bottom. Maybe even a square crop.

Very nice. It almost doesn't look real. I like the complete absence of depth perception I feel.

I like this - the backlighting is nice.

It looks underexposed, and improved when I boosted the contrast in Picasa. Also, I might give it a big crop, basically cut it in half and use only the right side.

Thanks for the c&c everyone. Haven't submitted them yet, so I will pay close attention to your comments.

Please tell me you cropped it during PP and not in camera

Sorry, can't tell you that.
I thought it was too predictable to include the whole chair and the whole table, although I do wish I'd left more room at the top.

#1 is pretty busy, but I like the way the bookshelf melds with the building reflection, and the two other reflections in the gumball machine.
And of course, all those colors
Maybe it's a case of infatuation with what my eyes saw.....
