Bubble World

The bubble is in perfect focus and is gently nestled between three blades of grass that seem to hold it up. However, the composition on this photo could have been more interesting. Their is a dead leaf in the background and that could have been more effectivately integrated into the composition if you had taken the photo somewhere where there existed a single reflection of a tree within the bubble. The view would then have instantly connected the leaf with the tree in the bubble but as it stands here there are several trees reflected such that the connection is not strong enough to support that relation.

Bubbling Sunlight

The composition is very interesting. It almost gives the appearance of a mountain of bubbles. I think the composition would be even stronger if the sun was just above the bubbles such that it gives the appearance that it is rising/setting above/behind this "mountain of bubbles". Not to mention that it would give the appearance that the sun is gently supported/nestled by this tiny delicate bubbles. The other critique I have on this is that there appears to be some sort of object that is slightly out of focus in the top right hand corner. That area of "something being there" distracts from the overall pleasing picture.

The Soothsayer

The bubble is in perfect focus. Our eyes are immediately drawn to it. Then we notice the the person in the background with his/her lips puckered such that leads us to believe that he/she blew this bubble from his/her lips. The blue tones and lighting adds to the mood of calm and serene, not to mention adds a hint of mystery as in "the object appears out of the blue - from which did it come and who is the mysterious figure in the background.". Good job.

The composition is good with a tight focus on the cat studying the bubble. Love how the cat's eyes are focused intently on the bubble. The black background draws the eyes attention directly to the cat and the bubble.

My morning coffee

I like the composition on this photo. The deep rich brown hues against the white coffee cup really help to invoke not only the visual of coffee but it also invokes the taste and smell of fresh brewed coffee in the morning. My only critique is that while the focus is tightly centered on the bubbles within the cup it is too zoomed in. The overall image would be strengthen if you had cropped the image to include just the a bit more of the curve of the coffee cup in the top left hand corner. The curve of the coffee cup would mimic and complement the curves seen in the bubbles not to mention give the eye another pleasing curve to follow as they explore the contents of this photo.

This is an adorable and sweet capture! The expression on the child's face is so exuberant and so full of fun and laughter that one cannot help but to smile as they view this photo. The black background is the perfect backdrop for this image for the viewer really gets to see the bubbles without them being 'lost' in a background with too many distracting object. Not to mention the the choice of a black background makes the bubbles pop out more than a white one would. The only critique I have on this shot is that I think if you had included more space in the upper half of the photo to accomendate a possible bubble that is just out of reach of this child. He/she seems to be reaching for a bubble that is not shown in the frame. If that bubble was included in the frame it would have established a even stronger connection of bubble play between the child and the bubbles floating around him/her.

His Deepest Question

A sweet and endearing capture. The child's face has a nice little smile as he looks at the bubbles on his hand. He does seem to be pondering the question that all children seem to ask" Where do bubbles go?" It is that smile and a bathtub full of bubbles that help invoke the ideas of a playful childhood. This photo can invoke in the viewer, fond memories of their own childhood. The lighting is very good in this shot with all elements appearing to be cast in a natural light that compliments the overall photo.

Bubbly Personality

The composition is good on this photo. The viewer's main attention is tightly focused on the subject and the objects surrounding her. However it does suffer from lack of sharp focus on the bubbles and on the subjects face. While the girl is mostly in focus the bubbles in the forefront are not. The bubbles have a very fuzzy and soft look to them and while that may add to the dreamy aspect to it, I still think it could have been better if it was more sharply in focus. And admittingly bubbles are not an easy subject to capture. Not knowing what camera you are working with I am limited to dispensing broad advice : if you have a camera where you can set the aperature I would recommend the highest you can set it (the higher the number the less 'light' is let in through the 'lens'). Why close down the aperature to let less light in? The reason is that it gives a greater depth of field to the shot not to mention greatly enhances the sharpness of the foreground and background of the shot. So that even thought the focus may be centered on the model the bubbles in the foreground would be in sharp focus too. Hope this helps.

Wow that black background really makes the caterpillar and the fauna really pop off the page. The colors are bold and vibrant. It really captures the attention of the eye immediately. We get a wonderful opportunity to explore the colors and the details not only on the caterpillar but also on the plant. Very well done!

Sometimes a change in angle transforms things from lovely to extraordinary. I love the deep dark colors of the blues, purples and greens. The composition is very dreamy, serene, and magical; one which the viewer can get truly lost in.
