With this much texture I would have loved to see a sharper focal plane. Also I would have liked a bit more life with the colours and possibly a different angle so not to catch only the profile of the back critter. Overall it is nice, it is cute, but it is not for me.

The old-style of this image is slightly appealing. The composition and contrasts are ok, though perhaps could have been pushed a bit more.

The Commute

This is interesting though the center composition does nothing for me. Yet I read your title and notice the gentleman walking. This image is more about the stature/sculpture then the guy walking. Overall it is an ok snapshot but just does nothing for me.

Lion's Gate Bridge

This is kinda nice. The colours of the green on the supports and the white on the suspensions are nice. However the fire orange and electric poles create a strong distraction. I am on the fence about the foreground items, Though I think if it was cropped off to show only the bridge and reflection it would have stood a lot stronger.

Baby in the middle

Kinda cute image. Though The top unbalances the bottom and distracts my eye. I see with your title your concept, however for me it did not work well to balance the frame. Perhaps a landscape view would have been more beneficial.

Break Thru

I love taking these types of shots. However for me, this one just doesn't give me a strong sense of wow. Sure there is a huge wave or churned water all around the rider. But the board looks flat and the rider looks about ready to bail. For me there is not enough clarity of image/story. Perhaps if there was more contrast to create drama in the water it would offer something extra.

A nice clean portrait, the colours work well and I like the element of her leaning against the fence there. However for me, for a free-study it just does not do enough. I am missing the wow factor that blows me away.

I enjoy the background as well as the clarity of line on the feathers. However it appears he is a bit out of focus or that it drops off rather quickly. I would have hoped for a sharper more clear view of the whole bird and not just the tips of the wings.

The Orleans Stone House

This could be a cute image for horse lovers. The scene is pleasant enough. However it does not pop or scream at me. It is nice but not extraordinary.

The center alignment of the clock for me is distracting. I understand it is where you got your title but there is no real understanding or appeal to the average viewer as to why. At least not to this viewer. The motion of the train is interesting and I wonder if I am seeing a reflection of the other wall or seeing through the train. I think there is a lot of possible character here just it was not brought out for me.
