nice composition but the swan seems sort of too white.

A decent shot, a pretty scene. But I a shot that only links to the challenge through the title isn't as strong as one which speaks for itself.

The concept is there, but it is really obvious that it was staged and the dodging of the edges is a nice touch but a little distracting. If you could find a better way to incorporate the verse the picture would be more successful.

it doesn't really appeal to me. it looks kinda too golf-coursey and not really holy or serene

Image seems a bit fuzzy. The swan is overexposed

Not a bad photo, not keen on the border though.

A good verse, but the overall feel of the picture doesn't strike me as fitting with the theme of the challange.

I'm not sure I like the border. The shot itself is nicely balanced with the swan and person in prayer. I'm not quite sure this is a holy place as much as a holy person. The colors are somewhat drab.

I think it would be a bit better if the subject wasn't totally in the corner of the image so that the border didn't go through the clothing. Also, the border doesn't really add much to the photo. Having said all that - the idea of the shot and the title are both quite good.
