I like the composition. The highlights and shadows seema bit too contrasty. I do like the soft focus and the duotone. Nice work.

This seems more like a snapshot, but I am very impressed with how it turned out. It appears as though it would have been taken at high noon, but you did an excellent job on the shadows and highlights to make everything come out just right. Good job.

I think this is an excellent photo. I love how the long exposure gives the river a mysitcal effect because of the flowing water.

Agree.

I do really like the rest of the photo however, especially the dock and clouds. What post processing did you do for this image?

Great idea for a "circle" competition. I really like the continuous circles leading to the center of the circle. Good choice to switch to no color as the color would have distracted a lot in the background.

Good use of the silhouette, but there are some distracting elements in the background and the silhouette appears a bit out of focus.

Nice job on separating your spoonful from the bowl and cup of coffee. Great use of DOF and excellent lighting all around.
