Good job with what looks like a tricky exposure. I like the way you got the subject lined up with the foreground patterns.

My Shadow is a Two Year Old

I like the idea ... this looks a liitle over-sharpened though -- I think a little softer look would work here.

Great timing to get this composition. Too bad the laws of physics don't allow your outline to be sharper.

Cleverly done -- I assume it took a LOT of takes to get it "just right."

Its Time for Peace

A great idea. Consider buying an old (broken) watchband at a secondhand store and re-shooting this, so the band could seem to disapear behind the shadow -- I think it would make it even stronger.

Spirit of Hamlein

And I just bought a cheap soprano recorder last week -- before I saw this. Good idea and composition. Is the background fabric? I like the overall graininess, but something in the texture isn't quite right for me -- I think I'm expecting a "pebbly" texture as from stucco or plaster.

Five O'Clock Shadow

If you set up a cradle to reposition your head each time, you have a good set-up for and interesting and/or funny time-lapse sequence. If you could hold out a few days you'd get a nice "werewolf" transformation effect.

Mortar and Pestel

I agree with the comments about the nice lighting and texture. I also think it a bit odd to have a subject with a "heavy feel" floating in the middle; I think you can have the same amount of black space but with the mortar sitting down near the bottom.

On the Edge
by Konador

Comment:
A good choice for this challenge, with the sign as the only foreground element, and the cool lights and clouds in the background.

The horizontal shape also lets the lights trail off into infinity on the right, reinforcing the pointing element of the sign. I wish you had a teeny bit more backround to the left of the sign; it looks a little crowded up against the left edge.
