I couldn\\\'t rope any of my kids into yet another photo shoot, so I had to work with myself (ugh). With 8 kids dirtying up clothes, I spend a lot of time in the laundry room...
I\\\'m still not very PP savvy... I played around with the exposure and saturation a bit, and did some sharpening and cropping.

CTPII, yeah. Oi, you broke the 6 barrier. Good for you!
You met the challenge head-on and finished with aplomb. The subject you chose (yeah, you) tugged at a lot of "I can relate" strings and probably gave you that high score.
Your technicals and color handling is improving (a lot) and a bit more PP skillz and you're good to go.
Congrats on your PB.
CTCP2 Gunnsi First impression: Great shot. Good idea and well executed.
You are at the right place in the picture. Good colours, focus fine and crisp.
What could you do better?
Maybe place the camera a bit more to the left and pointing it more to the right to get the vertical lines a bit more vertical!
Congratulations on over 6 finish.
Technicals: Good. The whites look incredibly white and the colors are colorful. Nice detergent, I mean lighting you used on this.
Subject/composition: Good subject. Fits the challenge well. I don't think I could have composed this shot any better so great job all the way around.
Suggestions for Improvement: I don't really have any. Alexgarcia had an interesting idea with the clothes but if you can manage 8 kids and a hobby like photography along with everything else I think having the clothes somewhat in order like you do here that's more accurate! All in all great photo.
Woot, personal best!!! Way to go! Love the black toenail polish, by the way. You did quite well with the composition here - nice choice to go with all blues and whites in the clothes pile instead of a more mix. A think a random red shirt would have distracted attention away from you. I think my one criticism for this would be that you would benefit from casting a warmer hue on it. The light is very white and a touch bright. Good work!
First Impression: Ha, Ha, very funny shot. Congrats on your PB. Very good score.
Composition: Like it, with your head on thirds, with your legs making a movement. Not sure about the half "box" of clothes on the right.
Subject: Funny, accurate for the challenge.
Technical: Colors are very natural (maybe lightly desaturated for my taste), focus is OK and lightning good.
Improvement: Just an idea: the box with clothes on the right could be all over you, as if you were covered with the pile. Maybe that would emphasize your shot.
Summary: Very well executed image, technically precise.
Lighting on this shot looks pretty good! I'm not a big fan of the downward angle of the shot--I might prefer something straight on at the model's level, with the washer and dryer behind. Good work on meeting the challenge description!
