It is a really interesting picture, but it would have been nice to have a bit of context on the story behind it. Maybe you could have added a short description to better guide the viewer in understanding the message you were trying to convey.

I love the composition of this photo; it tells quite a story. I would have simply made the contrast between the reflection and the actual car stronger by adjusting the white balance, highlights, and shadows a bit more in post-editing.

I adore the soft pastel colours in this shot, they give it such a gentle, nostalgic feel. The pink toy car adds something truly special. It makes the entire scene feel somewhat surreal, as if it’s not a real summer day but rather the memory of one, or perhaps even a child’s daydream. There’s something playful and innocent about it. It almost feels as though you’ve stumbled into someone’s imagination, sunny, simple, and just a touch magical.

The photo of the abandoned supermarket trolley, left to sink in the water, creates a strong feeling of loneliness and neglect. Seeing something so normal in such a forgotten place is strange and a bit unsettling. The image tells a quiet story about waste and abandonment, making you stop and think. The brownish colour of the water adds to the mood, making everything feel quite uncanny. It’s a powerful, well-composed shot. Well done.

The colour of the building matches the sky so well that they almost become one. Looking up, it feels like they blend into an endless loop. It’s a simple idea, but really powerful. There’s nothing flashy, just a calm, beautiful connection between the building and the sky. It feels unique and thoughtful. Great job capturing that moment.

This contest is for your photos of small, strange or beautiful things or moments that you have noticed and photographed but that people would usually walk past in their everyday lives. Sometimes the most surprising things are hidden in plain sight, just requiring us to slow down and look a little closer, allowing the ordinary to suddenly feel new. Try to rethink and rediscover things that are part of your daily routine and make them special by looking at them from a different perspective or by portraying them in a different light.
