Firstly, thank you for entering my challenge. The surrealistic style and creativity that went into this image is astounding. The fact that they are promoting objects made from the coastline tends to fit in well with the story being told. This image tends to portray the fact that they are not only displaying the artwork having been made to the viewer but are in actual fact all taking an interest in each other's work . This is apparent from the eye contact being made with each other and with that of the objects on display. A feel good scene where they all look happy with a project accomplished. Congrats and well done!

Firstly, thank you for entering my challenge. The fact that this gentleman seems quite content on playing his trumpet alone with the simple sound of the sea behind him is most appealing. The uncluttered image also tends to provide us with a feeling that- less is more. We tend to focus more on that of the musician instead of other possible distractions which may have diverted our attention away from him. Congrats and well done!

Firstly, thank you for entering my challenge. The angelic nature of a little girl lost is most appealing in his image. This is further enhanced by the slight signs of the rays of light emanating from above. A golden feel is also evoked and along with the swirling foam also tends to provide a softer , gentle appeal. Congrats and well done!

Firstly , thank you for entering my challenge. The man alone on the beach tends to draw the attention of the viewer in - this occurs as we begin to ponder over what his thought process on this cold wintry day could possibly be .The composition is perfect as we feel him encroaching towards the water's edge. The slightly moodier feel emanating from the image is also very appealing. Congrats and well done!

Firstly, thank you for entering my challenge. The surfer resting upon his surfboard gives one lots of food for thought. He could be reflecting after a good day out on the water's or even contemplating on heading out again. The fact that his face is turned away from us gives us no indication as to his thought processes - so this is left up to our own demise. Congrats and well done!
