Blue Mood & Moon
by Mona

I like that you were able to capture the moon and generally a silhouette of the tree, but then there would be no moon if it was a truely backt lit. Other than that, I think it would be a really cool shot without quite so much space between the 2 objects. Perhaps a lower and closer point of view would have allowed this.

Superb lighting. At first glance, I thought your fish had passed, but I'm guessing it would be floating if that were the case. The mood i'm stiil getting is post life. Anyway since you decided to cut off the base, I'm left trying to figure out why you decided to show so much of the stem.

Entrapment

Perhaps I have my monitor set to dark because I don't want anyone complaining about my pics, but I think this could have been a stellar shot if there was some more light on the water. Oh and if possible I would have liked to see the full reflections of the longer posts and a bit less sky

I like how the shape of the outer black conforms to her shape. Would have liked to see less detail in the mode'l's face and chest. And if her fingers weren' t visible, she would have looked like a pregnant venus de milo. I'm thinking that would have been a cool idea.

Good idea. Like the b/w. Would have liked to see it with the bottom fern pulled down when you took the pic and with that middle black line at the bridge of the nose removed during processing

Remembrance

That appears to be a very strong sunset you had to work with. I find myself wondering what would have happened if you showed more of the scene and kept the natural colors

The strange angle is very intriguing. It seems like the bird should be falling backwards off the branch. I'm guessing you cropped down alot, but with the b/w and the artifacts that became more apparent, it adds to the mystique of the shot for me. I'm also guessing from the title, the artisticness of this shot was perhaps unintended. Looking at it more closely, perhaps I'm completely wrong and you just added a plastic type filter and then upped the contrast? Regardless of the intention I do enjoy it.

I really like the guy on the right's body language and expression. I wish the other guy had his arm down.

Nice composition. I'm having a tough time figuring out what you did but the edges of the ducks ended up very off. I'm thinking upping the contrast a bunch would have helped the ducks stand out without the artifacts.

Nice mood set by the lighting. Wish the foreground was a bit crisper and the head was a bit more isolated from the body.
