I really like your choice of time for this and think the sunrise really enhances. you've done an excellent job with the hues and the sharpness - both fit the subject. The only think I would argue is that removing the top 1/3 of the sky would enhance and strengthen the composition. 7

there is a lot of stuff here. It all is given equal weight due to the extensive depth of field and even toning. I wish there was a main point of focus to rest my eyes on. It is sharp and I think the tones work well. 6

Composed well and toned well with an excellent DOF for the subject. And such life! 8

The bird and the stick just happened to land in the perfect place for this photograph? No, I think you have an eye for finding the perfect place for the strongest composition. Most people just pick out a couple of things to focus on when composing but you hit them all - the light, the bird, the stick, the water, the shadow... nothing else but a 10 will do. Wait, and a fave so I can remind myself of what a thinking photographer does.

Sin City

Hmmm. I'm surprised. I really like this. I think part of it is the reflections and the light bouncing off the car. The scene behind the car is irrelevant to me as you did an amazing job with the car. Not sure how, but i'd really love to know how you did it. 9

I think your equipment failed you here. You have excellent timing, a good composition, and great colors, but you seem to have been too far away to capture the scene without cropping it way too far. It might be time to upgrade as it appears you have an eye for photography.

Keswick Illustrated: Physical Appeal

Okay. Now, I'm hoping that you knew what was on the board behind you. If not, oh well. If so, I would have had my model try a different expression on her face. The two just do not go together at all. It is very well photographed - the toning, sharpness, dof and composition is perfect. But, the incongruity, and not in a good way, really takes away from it. 7

A Whales' Fingerprint

Hey! I recognize that whale! Actually, I don't, but I thought it sounded good. anyway, having been hunting for whales, I know how extremely difficult it is to shoot them, particularly on a bobbing boat. And this one is sharp, well focused, with a good composition and colors. 7

Dessert Decadence!

Not a fan of food photography as around here, it doesn't usually look edible. But I think you've done well keeping out the color casts and getting it sharp enough for interest. The composition isn't the strongest, but it still looks good enough to eat.

Aerobatic Precision

Wow. That was my first thought when this opened. Its like they are coming right for me. Not sure if what wows me is their precision or yours, but your impeccable timing, DOF, sharpness and colors really push this to the top. Impressive. 9
