While all good images, the card set has very little feeling of being a set. The images are very different, different color scales, different layout, different scope, different motives. I realize it is a bit late to whine about this, but if a new contest is started, I think these things should be considered. Each suite should be given a theme and a color scale, and each value (Is that the correct word? English is not my primary language.) should have a theme, so that each card should be of the basic theme of the suite, but with the twist from the value. Some guidelines concerning content, perspective and so on would also help to enhance the feel that it is ONE deck of cards, not a mix from 52 different decks. It would be more difficult for the participants, but I'm sure we like a good challenge. /Troberg
