Fun shots!

Interesting squareness in the Opposing Forces pic.. nothing quite square... the poses are quirky and the angles are awkward. The smiling shoelace line (that is not straight) is very friendly, with the bright green and yellow, and park visitors. #4 Very thoughtful and an awesome find... They're definitely *reddy* for the change in fuels. Toothy tunnel frame is nice. Feels a bit off-center but I like the concept of framed by a tunnel.

I am with Lea, that #4 is a nice image with the lens accentuating the shape of the landscape hardscape interface. I also enjoy #8 because of the unique geometry you captured. Is it me or does this sensor seem to have more DR than the Lumix of the same vintage?

Dan, according to some test charts that I saw, the E-P1 and G1 dynamic range are almost identical. Maybe I'm just better at post-processing these days... :)

#2 - Very pleasing curve of the pond, plus the nice contrast in tonality between the darks and light in the water and the dark water along the lighter-colored border of the pond.

#3 An intriguing shape that you made using the low angle and perspective stretching of a wide-angle view!

#6 Lovely subject, nicely framed.

#8 Beautiful composition you created by getting in close and the way the stems bow outward in a nice, symmetrical way. Also, before I saw the captuion, it left me wondering a bit - that' a good thing!
