Cool colors and good use of leading lines. Good eye to see this and capture it.

Breaking down

This is an interesting photo. One thing hard to grasp is the scale of the ice. I have a feeling that the chunks of ice are pretty large, but without anything to give it context (boat, person, etc...) it's hard to know.

Another cool factor in this image is the high contrast created by the bright whites and the dark shadows.

Smile and keep having fun! ;^)

Tickling the Ivories

This is a nice shot and probably would have done "OK" in the challenge. It's funny, I've done a nearly identical shot for some stock work and the thing that jumped out at me was the dirt that shows up on the black keys. ;^) That might have cost you a point or two... One other consideration - have you mirrored this? The eye tends to be more natural/comfortable to go left to right (Western culture thing I guess).

Smile and keep having fun! ;^)

Wonderful perspective shot here. I'd imagine there are some other times of the day to setup here as well. Only thing on the down side is the hazy sky and buildings...wish it were a little clearer.

Smile and keep having fun! ;^)

That's some pretty serious equipment they're carrying! Good thing you didn't tick em off. ;^) Hope you enjoyed your trip.

Very interesting place. I like the way the hillside angles from top right to bottom left...a nice natural leading line. Captured some sun rays coming thru the clouds also. Cool. ;^)

This has an interesting balance to it. The angle that was used to compose this works very well. Nice shot!

Wonderful colors and tone in this image. Love the still reflection. I'll bet there are some other great opportunities here at different times of the day? Nice shot.

Tranquil production

This is an interesting shot. Nice use of lines, both man-made and natural (hills in background). Looks like the tonal range is a bit clipped...don't really have sharp whites or deep blacks. Did you try boosting the contrast and/or play with the levels a little?

Good eye for seeing this compositionally. Smile and keep having fun! ;^)
