The harbour

The colors are bright and bold, but I found the hard shadows on the middle boat distracting, and the buildings in the background blended in to the subjects giving a cluttered appearance. Looking with my "crop hands", I might have picked the bottom of the two right boats with their reflections, using the reflection itself as the subject.

Sheesh, did the voters here want you to place a reflector board under the seagull to give some fill light? This is a great panning shot. The boat-like thing on the right is a little weird, but not that distracting. The colors look a little flat; maybe a bump in saturation or a poke of the curves adjustment would make this picture pop more.

This is one of my favorites! The position of the warriors against the wide tree in the background just balances the shot perfectly.

I Can See You!

I think a portrait orientation around the right rabbit, placing him toward the lower left a bit, would have been a more compelling picture. Without the right rabbit, I'd have no idea what the thing on the left was.

Looks like I owe you 10 comments for winning our Free Study side challenge. Your DOF here is perfect, and I really like the 3 bands of color further framing the rabbits. The solid blur in the extreme forground it a bit distracting; for whatever reason I like background bokeh more than foreground bokeh.

Certainly a "private" moment. Good sharpness and composition.

That's a neat trick with the sandwich bag. Forgetting to cut a hole might have been a good technique for the blurry mess challenge!

Tea spoon

I had a special spoon growing up; I found it under my mom's car one day, and used it (after washing it, of course) for about 20 years before it got lost in a move.

Nice tones in your shot, and excellent DOF on the handle.
