A Retired Lady of Industry,

5 - Mostly for the potential. Like the sharp perspective angle. Criticism; needs to be at least 640, in this case width. Not an overt 'industrial' type feel in the ship itself, but the anchor helps this. Just needs to be bigger. The anchor sharper too would have made this better in my opinion. Perhaps a slightly different crop too, not sure.

7 - Good shot, almost abstract. Good coloring. Criticism; difficult, but perhaps if the anchor were sharper, might have made this better in my opinion. Like the silhouette effect of the workers.

7 - Good shot, effects and lighting and overall 'feel'. Criticism; bottom left 'green' detracts in my opinion. I like the 'grass/seedheads' contrasting there but if they were more subtle (ie just the green behind cropped out and less of the 'grass'), make this even better in my opinion.

8 - Wow. Great shot. Criticism; difficult, but given the 'smoke' adds so much in this shot, if possible, the inclusion of 'more' of that center one, even if it meant sacrificing some reflection (or possibly gaining both by a sharper perspective who knows), may have made this even better in my opinion. Lighting is good and colors are good, but would like to see the few colors that are there (as opposed to lights), ie; that green on the left, bolder, if possible. Good industrial shot.

7 - Good shot, good symmetry. Criticism; want to say I'd like to see the 'smoke' more, but difficult at this angle/size. I like the effect with the lower lights. seems either a flaw or not sure, in the middle of the 'stack'/'tower' but could be lights. Overall the feel is good but seems just a little 'overprocessed', detracting (albeit slightly) from the main subject, in my opinion.

Grain Industry

7 - Like this and the colors together. Criticism; don't know how you did this under 'basic', but seems like it is 'over' burned. A more subtle 'burn effect', would have made this better in my opinion. Too much detail is lost in the concrete(?) structure/silos/tanks/whatever. Good angle/perspective. Just those black areas seem too 'processed' to me, hard to explain. edit:typo

6 - Like the potential. Criticism; in my opinion there is too much grain, whether it was intentional or not, not sure, either way, detracts from an already 'texturous' enough shot in my opinion. Like the perspective, but wonder if that roofing on the right detracts a little from the sharp perspective. Like to see the focal point perhaps a little more to the fore.

6 - Like it. Criticism; perhaps just a little more space either side of the can, and a slight rotation up on the left, may have made this better in my opinion. It is obviously unused, and the 'filaments' attached to it add an extra element to the feel of this, which have been captured in the sunlight(?). Perhaps just a bit stronger colors, but difficult I imagine with contrast issues.

6 - Good perspective and 'view'. Criticism; without the cars, and those 'billowing smoke clouds' emphasized somehow, would have made this better in my opinion.
