Window Bouquet

5 - Have looked at this for a while and cannot decipher if it is ice formations on a window or some type of floral arrangement/foliage. Hoping it is the first, will be back PC to see. If it is the first - my 'criticism' is that I'd like to see more definition/sharper and perhaps the toning tweaked more to enhance the tonal ranges. Possibly also either more of a square frame, or else vertical may have helped this. Also, don't understand how that bottom left area could be black/blue after this image was converted to sepia/duotone. Again, will be back PC to see. Like the potential. Again, if this is some type of ice formation, perhaps a blueish tone may have enhanced it further as well (or even the illusion if this is foliage) - but your call obviously on the choice of color.

Unusual shot. Presumably volcanic terrain (if you could include details in your comments would be good). Apologies in advance if wrong, but this looks like it needs a nudge rotation up on the right. Difficult, but perhaps a little more definition and/or slight tweaking of colors, especially in the 'pit' - likely make this even better in my opinion. Also, given the shape of the pit/landscape, perhaps a little more height if you had it too, not sure.

Good capture. Quality dependent - this with even just the dog and then reframed - make 'another' good shot, in my opinion. Looks like good control of the whites/snow.

Good and unusual/fun capture (for all concerned - from your notes).

Nice capture, composition and colors. Difficult, and opportune anyway, but if there was a bit more definition/clarity (especially eyes/head), make this even better - but you're likely well aware of that anyway.

Unusual capture. 'If only'. The centering works well in my opinion. Quality dependent, perhaps a fraction tighter crop, even though likely still blurred - but for added 'impact', may help this, not sure. Like the spray of snow on the left.

Very nice shot and use of DOF. Maybe, a nudge rotation up on the right, but works fine as is. Both reflections/shapes in the eyes add another element to this. Toning works very well in this shot in my opinion.

Good clarity in the eyes. Excellent colors. The uncropped version is very good too in my opinion. This one has just a touch of grain, which I'm sure you're well aware.
