This image I would have hoped for more. It is ok as it is. But nothing exciting. That could be the moon or the sun behind the clouds. we cannot tell. There is also not much to give me any sort of feeling with. Some sticks, clouds and a ball. Hmmm, just not for me.

Nice candid image. Im sure there are a handful of people who will really enjoy this image. But I am also sure that handful know this Marine personally. Its a clean candid but it does not offer me story or pop.

I like the spikes of colour within this image. However for me it is a simple image. It does not offer the focal range I would have enjoyed or the depths of contrast and texture I would hope to see. It is nice, just not nice enough for me.

A nice simple flower. Not sure the monochrome works for me very much. There is a slight hint of texture wihtin the flower but other places it is lost. It offers a confusion of view.

HANNAH II

The ship offers some nice personality of texture. However looking at the rest it really flattens out and becomes dull. The angle is nice, however with the bit in the bottom left corner it loses some appeal of design. Overall it is a nice image but without real pop and drama.

This is a classic, and I just wish there was more depth of character within the images. A stronger personality coming out. The contrasts are mild but could be better.

Cute snapshot. Im sure the relatives/owners of both the child and horses find this extremely cute. However for me, being neither a fan of either I will say the clarity is nice, the composition I don't care for. Too centered with the action. The colours are nicely contrasted and the dof works. Just does not pop for me.

The Vamp

I read the title and you completely lose me. Not that it had much to go on in the first place. There should be more contrast or at least a highlight along the hat so the viewer doesn't lose it into the background. It appears to be direct light which loses any depth of character. .... The Vamp. I would like to ask what here makes you see 'vamp'? Though I also need to ask what do you think a 'vamp' is? No judgment on the model, Or attacks, just observation of character portrayed within the image... The Tramp, may be a better title. More believable because of the wardrobe choice. Remember this has nothing to do with the model personally, only the visual of the image in front of me.

Interesting image. Not quite sure what I think of it but I do know it does not blow me out of the water. Im assuming this is a negative b/w maybe even a bit of solarization or something. Maybe not. Im sure it has its place but for here it is not quite.

A cute portrait, though with the wrinkled sheet and the bright highlight on the side of her hair it causes a distraction. Also being a simple cute portrait may be nice for normal settings or for personal use however for a free study I feel it just does not give me enough. No drama or pop. Also the clarity could be sharper and the depth more recognizable.
