    There were a few entries I was torn about. I honestly didn't interpret the theme as a challenge to make a photo "artificial" in photoshop, so I tried not to look at the entries that way, and I really wanted to SEE either artifical or organic in the subjects themselves. That's one of the reasons I felt I couldn't pick some of them... I'm not saying it was wrong to interpret the theme as a photoshop one... I just didn't, so I can't "judge" that way.

    My List
    My likes in chronological order and not by preference:
    5
    10, (would be my very first choice KUDOS)
    18,
    20,
    24,
    33,
    39,
    48,
    49,
    76,

    Honorable Mentions that were in my list and I removed:
    22 - Liked it, but would have been better had the curtains been ironed, and frame was evenly placed, needed more attention to detail.
    30 - GREAT Photo but wasn't all that artificial or organic to me, was more "nature natural i.e. fog" '
    32 - love this, but found the rose to be too dead centered.
    You're only as good as your next photo....

    I too did not want to give my take on this until the judges had their say.
    This methodology obviously has thoughts of did I pick some because they qualified?
    No.
    I am posting my list because I feel that knowing what the "voting" public
    picks is as valuable as knowing how the judges pick.


    Thank you everyone else for revealing how you would have voted.


    #10 - richtersl "I Just Want ro be Human"
    #16 - Dalantech "Frozen in Time"
    #18 - kingmamaof2 "I Saw Her Move"
    #28 - Nikolai "The Oldest Trick In The Book"
    #30 - seastack "Morning Fog"
    #33 - Greensquared "Soil Sample"
    #35 - LiquidAir "Incandescent"
    #39 - padu "strawberries / untitled"
    #58 - Swartzy "Harmony in the Kitchen"
    #62 - shatch "He Had Fire in His Eyes" (This is my personal fav)


    runners up in my list
    #31 - JimW "Trixie"
    #48 - pyroPrints.com "Intelligent Design"
    #71 - JFreeman "Setting Lights During Tech Rehearsal for Dracula"
    #88 - cjkphoto "Organics in the spotlight"


    This list obviously has my own entry missing from it because I can't really vote for myself now can I ;-)

    Here's mine
    I could pick only 8 ne_nau.gif - here they are with my reasons for choosing them (not in any order of preference)

    1. richtersl - I just want to be human

    Great execution and very appropriate to the title

    2. kingmamaof2 - I saw her move

    Same as above

    3. Douglas - windowless room
    A great take on artificial. I really liked the simplistic aspect of the photo

    4. TessaHD - new skin
    Very creative and made me laugh :-)

    5. Sherstone - slice of life
    Excellent colors and lovely picture

    6. Padu -
    Loved the idea and the execution

    7. Dizzy- Gogh Digital
    A photo PSed (am I right?) in a great way

    8. Selina -in this aisle you'll find....
    Nice colors and composition

    I am humbled by those of you who chose my photo in your top ten. bowdown.gif
    I guess there is still a little hope for me :-)

    #5 - New Life - bgaras2001 - Ivy and egg
    Great execution of "plant in an egg". Very organic.

    #10 - I Just Want to be Human - richtersl - mannequin ***
    I knew this one was a shoo-in the moment I saw it. Very gripping, nice B&W conversion. My #2.

    #18 - I Saw Her Move - kingmamaof2 - creepy doll ***
    The title really accents this shot. Creepy and well done. Tied for #3.

    #25 - Slice of Life - sherstone - backlit fruit & veggies **
    Great use of backlight. Re-take this one for translucent! :-) My #5

    #30 - Morning Fog - seastack - surreal landscape ***
    One of my favorites because it reminds of a video card test program. Tied for #3.

    #33 - Soil Sample - Greensquared - Baby in field
    Wow, baby in a field with dirt. What's more organic?

    #39 - Untitled - padu - Painting Strawberries
    Great combo of artificial/organic. I liked this one better than the rose. But what do I know? ne_nau.gif:D

    #57 - Drinking Life - heatherfeather - Baby Sucking ****
    As a new dad, this is my favorite of the bunch. Says pure organic to me. My #1.

    #59 - Gogh Digital - Dizzy - Cool flowers
    I'd love to know how this was done. Great PS Work? Pure artificial.

    #86 - Beauty in Chaos - Tooky - Flowers in the road
    This one struck me right, maybe because I live in L.A. Nice organic oasis admidts the concrete.
