I really like how you are looking through garbage to take the shot. It makes your picture very original and unique.

This is nice. I like the ominous feeling the speeding truck give to this picture. Very nice composition and B&W suits this picture very well.

Might have been better if the girl actually looked poor and destitute instead of in almost brand new, nice clothes. Also, the centered position of the girl doesn't add any strength to this picture. Sepia is a good choice.

I like the monotone background against the colorful wrapper. The composition is excellent but the focus is pretty poor. A good sharp focus on the wrapper would have made this a much stronger picture.

Tsunami - One year later in Aceh

Nice shot. The sky is a bit over bright. You might have been able to correct in PS but when shooting it is a good idea to meter on the sky or brightest spot in the picture. It is easier to lighten up shadows than reduce highlights as once they are blown you can't recover them. The focus is also a bit soft. A good sharp focus on the destroyed building would have really make this picture have more punch.

Ugly as garbage

This is a good picture but the contrast seems low for B&W - it's really hard to see any detail.

Very nice to incorporate garbage into a beautiful classic sunset on water shot!

This is s good picture for garbage. However, it looks oversharpened on my monitor. I think a little bit of "grunge" looks good for garbage but this seems like a bit too much.

Very nice picture. The subdued lighting really suits it. It is so nice to see a garbage picture that does show trash but is also lovely to look at. Great Job.

I really like your picture! It is nice that it shows garbage without having to be grainy or depressing. The lighting and composition is really excellent.
