I'll re-post what I said in the other thread. These are the ones i've chosen in your poll too so I hope they correspond accurately with the other thread!
Cha ching, here goes my 2 cents for what its worth
#2 - V.interesting idea and nice execution
#8 - Nice lighting/processing, evokes a strong feel for the mood (eerie)
#9 - Fairly commonly done idea, but I still like it. The cool tones have matrix feel
#16 - Not sure if this stands out since you're in japan, but the photo holds my interest as I'm unfamiliar with the game and Japanese characters the single tile on the table is a nice compositional touch IMO
#24 - I like the bokeh and lighting on the spider (the plant to the left in closer to focus is vaguely distracting though)
#27 - Simple clean and traditional
#34 - Great exposure and use of sepia. The repetition leads the eye for me.
#36 - The flare is really bizarre but I enjoy the effect it has on the shot
#37 - The top eves causing the repetitive cutout effect is cool, and the colours complement
Possibly
#6 I prefer it to the other spoke wheel shot (contrast & lighting + crop)
I'll say this, i'm not a fan of HDR processing in a lot of cases - especially when the super even lighting and shadows sticks out as abnormal. Others love it though so go figure
I see halos on things, that looks not so attractive to my eye.
Hope this helps, and I'm envious of your opportunity (although i'm purely an amateur myself haha)
