The softening applied to this might be more effective with a shallower depth of field.

This image is a little soft for my taste. It looks like there should be detail in the landscape, but that it is smoothed over.

Last Day's Light

Captivating waterfall. This shot might benefit from some dodging and/or burning to fix the overexposed section at the top and add more emotion to the scene overall. I would definitely go back and get a variety of shots (if you haven't already), as I'm sure there is a lot to see here.

I like the subject, but am not wild about the composition. I think the length and shape of the grain could be used to strengthen the composition, maybe having some prevalent diagonals. There doesn't seem to be much form to the subject here, and imho, the more interesting subject is the taller strand to the left, though the focus is on the center. The exposure itself is good (though a little oversharpened).

You've certainly captured a lot of detail on the bug. I think I'd like to see all of the legs and antennae in focus, but that's pretty much nitpicking. Well done.

Small Kite, Tall Grass

I think in this case, fill flash would work well. The woman is underexposed leaving the sky correctly exposed (though washed out). Putting some light on your subject would better convey your message. If fill flash wasn't possible, I would overexpose the shot (compared to this exposure). Losing the detail in the sky wouldn't detract, as there isn't much sky detail or color to begin with.

Seems to be some red and green colors mixed in the water, giving it a blotchy appearance. It seems to me that the boat is the focus of this image, and I think it would have more impact without the bird, but then the pole would be a nuisance too. Cloning the bird out might help, or maybe a different angle.

I love the detail and smoothness of the surf. Excellent black and white study.

Happily Ever After

Good portrayal of emotion. With the slight silhouettes of flags and the strangely shaped poles, it leads me to believe that there was some struggle or hardship before the happy ending. Regardless, the picture tells a story and is very well done.

The sparkles of light in the water add interest, especially with the forlorn looking sky in the background. I like the subject, exposure and composiiton and really can't think of anything I would change for improvement. Excellent picture.
