Carole Kropscot	I love the deep orange sunset-like coloring on the lifeguard stand. To me, that's what "makes" this image. The cloud-covered moon and sky has an artful look and its own special, sort-of spooky look to it. It is of great secondary interest. This is the kind of image that could benefit from different cropping if you had not zoomed in so far to begin with. This picture has lots of impact.
Jenny Gu	You presented the lifeguard station beautifully at night.  The “red Cross” on the orange color gives me a warm feeling.  The image is sharp and clear.  However, I may take it in vertical to show more on lifeguard station. I prefer to give a bit of space on the left and do not cut the top.
David Price	Very dramatic image however you achieved it. Fabulous sky, almost mono and the lifeguard station leaps out from the b/g. You accomplished the time exposure perfectly. Great pic!
Ruth Rittichier	A good choice of subject. The moon is perfect, peeking from behind those clouds. The lifeguard stand seems to compete with the moon. I'd reduce the saturation, and darken the stand only, till it's a soft beige tone, and becomes compatible with the moon.
Walter Ross	I like the way you composed this image leading the viewer right to the moon.  The guard station is really sharp and shows the detail.  I feel you did a super job.
Barbara Kuebler	I really like your image.  The color of the light on the lifeguard stand is lovely and the ominous sky adds interest.  The clouds covering the moon soften the light.
