Here are the reviews for this week:

Garry Ashton-Coulton: Everyone else seems to like this shot. I do not
find it to be anything special. It looks artificially contrasty. That
is because it was originally a color shot that was converted to
digital. I thought no post-processing was allowed? Cheater. And what a
voyeur you are! Peeping Tom!

Bret Douglas: Fine macro. Good shot. Honours the mandate.

Jim Kramer: Poorly lit. Poorly composed. The clocks are not in sync.
Not a very good shot. Try harder next time.

Carbuff/George: Don't quit your day job. Keep photography as a hobby
at an arm's length. Total garbage.

Steve Kramer: 2 monkeys humping each other. Is this considered
bestiality or animal porn? Funny shot.

Joseph Kewfi: The luck of the Irish is not on your side. Is the kid
smart? He looks quite nerdy.

Richard Cockburn: Learn how to use the settings on your flash. These
guys look like they should be doing Kung Fu. Not boxing.

Vic Mason: No post processing allowed. That means no stitching or
excessive cropping. Cheater!

Parv: Poorly composed. ****-quality shot in all.

Bowser: This looks like a really bad snapshot that some is forced to
look at.

Michael Stevens: Good shot. Nice use of DOF.

Dallas Dahms: Good shot. Nice composition. Proper exposure. Thumbs up!

Charlie Dilks: This backyard drivel should be banned from the shootin!
OK, WOW! You caught a picture of a squirrel. Big deal. Try to catch
one where he has a more interesting expression next time. BORING!

Glenn Travis: Did you use a Leica or a Kodak 110 camera for this
snapshot?

Alan Browne: Good shot, but learn how to use the settings on your
flash.

Nick James: Next time you take the lazy route and submit an old shot
from the archives, try to find something better than this.

Simon Stanmo Wrong lens for the subject's face. Use something
softer with less distortion.

Michael Hoffman: Are you raising this kid to have diabetes when he
grows up? Forget about photography. You need to learn more about
nutrition and child rearing.

Rich Pos: Very convenient Halloween grab shot. Did you kids take this?

Peter Boorman: Good shot. Nice job with the lens. Good effect.

Gordon Moat: I like the effect here but the overall shot is poorly
composed.

Simon Lee: Bad idea. Poor shot. Back to the drawing board. Don't quit
your day job.

Elie Shammas: The little monkey looks ****ed off. Did you have his
permission to take this picture?

John Cuthbertson: Cute kid, but poor shot overall. Very boring
composition.

Martin Francis: Your mug is more scary than hell! You are one ugly
*******! Job well done, Male-Medusa!

Al Denelsbeck: I doubt that you took all six shots during the mandate
period. Bad idea. Poor job.

Doug Payne: What kind of crap is this? Did you even read the mandate?
Or did you just submit a JPG at random from your hard drive?

Andrew Colquhoun: Cute kids, but the composition in unflattering an
amateurish. Too much empty space in the shot. I would say learn how to
crop, but since post processing is not allowed here I commend you for
leaving it as-is: garbage.

Bob Hickey: Boring. Poor contrast. Poor shot.

Matt Clara: Interesting shadow detail. But what is up with the sloppy
borders and the white frame? No post processing is allowed. Cheater!

Lesley Cephas: This just sucks. Sorry to sound rude, but I call 'em as
I see 'em.

David Hardin: Face to face. Better than Leslie or Charlie's shot, but
not as good as Steve Kramer's.

John Riegle: Is that you in the picture? The lens distortion of your
coke-bottle glasses makes you look really weird. And why did you
picture appear so late? Face to face, but very crappy shot overall.
You suck as a photographer.

Rusty Shakleford: A picture of a camera. Cheesy attempt at following
the mandate. Boring shot to look at.
