Tethered at First Light by bryanbrazilComment: Somewhat unnatural colour cast, but effective and striking none-the-less.
Some weird looking (USM?) halos around the boats on the right...
The post processing is what is faulting this image, as the abstract and technical issues leading up to that point all look fine to me. |

concrete through a dirty mirrorby agenkinComment: This is an original idea.
It would look good on someone's wall if the mirror was clean.
I'm serious.
That's the only reason I'm faulting it. |

The Eerie Still Of The Dawnby BrianRComment: I like the colours a lot.
It has that poster feel about it.
The shore line on the far side is nice and level too.
Good luck! |

No Where To Goby DonkerDinkComment: I like what you were trying to do with this one.
I am a big fan of narrow dof, but in this case, having lost focus on the pieces in the foreground, you've over-exposed the piece in the background, and left the viewer with nothing much to focus on, if you'll pardon the pun.
The remaining highlights in this image (white squares and black piece light reflections) are too dark, and too close to the shadow levels to provide any real contrast or "pop", to the photo.
So, in all, it comes across as flat with no real attention grabber.
It was a well thought out idea lacking some technical finishing.
Better luck next time! |

Hypnotizedby GiorgioComment: You, my friend, are not well...
Pity about the unneccesary detail in the background. |

Momentarily stillby dahkotaComment: There are those who will give you grief over your narrow dof.
They can go and get knotted.
The viewer's attention is held by the head of the insect and the shapes sticking out of the flower (whatever the technical terms may be..).
The softened detail smoothly rounds out the picture, without interfering with what matters.
In all, you've succeeded in painting a beautiful picture with colours and shapes, while saying what needed to be said with this outstanding photo.
Good luck!
*10*
(And I really do mean knotted...) |

Restby BrinComment: This is a nice usage of a wide angle lens, with a good choice of composition and time of day for taking the shot.
Your colours are vivid and everything is in focus, as this shot demands.
The curving horizon would be my one complaint - ironically. |

Reels by StructorComment: This is a nice shot.
Whoohoo!
Someone got broadband!
If that's what the reels were for... |

crouching tiger...hidden dragonby mimsydotesComment: I think you have a really nice photo here.
This would make any mommy or daddy real proud!
On a technical note, I would go for a flatter crop in order to emphasise a wider angle, and to give flow to the direction he's looking in.
Good luck! |
