"I chose this image as I believe it beautifully represents the theme of the contest – Funportation. Our subject’s smile is simply infectious. The composition is wonderful with a terrific use of the nice, soft background. And those eyes – They draw us right in. Lighting is terrific and really brings a sense of timelessness to the photograph. Bravo!" - Paul Michael Kane
"Another timeless shot with a subject we can instantly connect with. Lighting is absolutely terrific and you’ve captured this at the exact right moment, with the pony in the foreground nuzzling the little girls shoulder – absolutely right place at the right time! The post processing is very well done and suits the atmosphere of the image. Outstanding!" - Paul Michael Kane
"I’ve only recently come to appreciate the joys of antique locomotives and steam engines – and this image really captures the fun that many train enthusiasts share. The very well done framing of our subject leaves no question as to what mode of transportation we’re presented with. The black and white treatment is expertly handled . . . well done!" - Paul Michael Kane
"Wonderful capture with some terrific leading lines – and a great example of when to break the rules! Having that horizon line cut right through the middle doesn’t distract nearly as much as the rule might suggest, especially since Dad is breaking up that line. Another processing job well done, getting some amazing detail in the sky and not artificially dulling down the highlights in the clouds. Kudos!!" - Paul Michael Kane
