The only way that I can describe this image is as bursting with freshness! You can see that thought has gone into the composition of the image. I love the depth the image provides by focussing on the bubbles that are in the forefront of the image. Very nice, well done.

I really like this image. Lots of clean lines that draw in your eye and give the impression of movement. The wave like blue hues immediately drew me to this image when I first saw it. Clever composition and a worthy winner in my opinion.

I love the colour of this photo. The deep blue hue drew me to it and made it memorable. The texture of the jellyfish and the layers of imagery let you see more and more each time you view this image. A lovely image.

I really like how unique this photo is. The angle of the window with its light and shadow are simple yet memorable. I also like how the photographer has thought about the composition of the shot and used the dog to give a sense of scale. A very nice image.

A beautifully executed photo providing lovely symmetry and straight architectural lines. I was draw to this photo because of it scales and I really love the tones and the textures of the building. Lovely composition and a super entry, well done :)

You can immediately see that a lot of effort and thought has gone into this photo. Love the yellow tone and the texture and reflections that these ordinary objects give. I like how the photographer has used ordinary everyday objects to create a stunning image.

I was drawn to this photo because of tone and really like how the spiral staircase draws the eye of the viewer inward and upward. Clearly an intricate and beautiful staircase that the photographer has captured really very. A lovely image.

I was drawn to this image because I really liked its simplicity. The eye of the bird is lit well and you can make out the shape of the bird and its beak. The photographer has done a good job to capture the texture of the feathers in this powerful image.

I really like this image because it portrays the meeting of liquid and solid in a gentle quite tranquil way. The texture of the water and ice along with the soothing hue of this photo are very pleasing to the eye. A lovely image.

I was drawn to this photo by the coral coloured feathers of the flamingo. I like how the photographer has composed this shot keeping it simple whilst still providing the eye enough information so that you can immediately identify the subject.

I really like the sense of scale of this desert photo. I think the photographer has executed this very well providing drama, texture in this strong image. I really like the tones and the use of shadow and contrast in this photo. Well done.

Just looking at this photo gives me a chill! I really like the composition and hue of this photo. The texture of the ice and the many layers stacked up behind make this a powerful image. I also really like the inclusion of the water meeting the ice providing a contrast in texture.

I really like the simplicity of this image. You can also see that the photographer thought about the composition of this photo as the railings cut the photo in half on the diagonal. The slightly cloudy blue sky gives a lovely contrast to the texture of the photo. Well done.

Brief

This is a fun brief to inspire your shooting over the next few weeks. Instinct might tell you that you have to get close to a subject in order to eliminate all but one colour, but maybe you can find bigger scenes, or create your own scenes, that still fit the brief? Differences in tone within the image are of course allowed, as long as you could still say that the scene is only showing different shades of the same colour. For the avoidance of doubt, all images must be in colour, and black and white images are not on brief.
