At least the tobacco will degrade

The whole setup seems interesting but I think you could have been more creative with the composition.. maybe moving in closer and framing it from the left with more variation in dof would have helped..

Pollute Yourself And Feel That Tar!!!

Comment:
Really like the gritty feel of the image.. The contrast works well with the edititng but I almost missed the tar[inclusion of which makes the image cooler] so that's the only part that I wish was better illuminated

Over-illumination (Light Pollution, Manhattan, New York City)

Comment:
Great use of long exposure.. Perhaps the only thing missing is a distinct focal point that makes this picture stand out from other similar pictures..

City stroll

Comment:
I like the b/w conversion and how you've caught the feel of the area but including the buildings on the right shakes the balance and they seem too overexposed.. Maybe if you'd walked just a little to the right and gotten the sharp corner of the building.. that would have made the composition more simple and perhaps stronger. Another problem here is the black plastic bags seem completely camouflaged.. maybe moving in closer to get more detail would have helped..

Like the composition you've chosen.. The left side seems to be slightly darker than the right and that's slightly distracting..also the bottom half seems slightly cut off..

Beneath the tide

I really wish you'd kept up the contrast or pushed up the levels because I nearly missed the tire. Since it's darker where the pollution is the attention just doesn't go there..

We're Number One - In Pollution That Is

Nice capture.. though you were obviously limited in capturing the picture[private property and stuff] you've got a complete view of the area to the voter.. though it is rather busy and there isn't anything to act as a focal point..

hah! cool image.. I amost wish you'd captured one two people more closely in a more portrait-esque fashion.. Would have created interest with more details..

Innocence polluted

Moving subject! I would have liked a less squarer image and wanted more negative space of water. perhaps going b/w with this image would have helped make the lighting seem less orange-ish..
