Very pretty. I like the subject alot and the background colors as well. I wish the DOF were a lilttle deeper to show better the fronds of the front of the plant. I also wish the lighting was a bit less harsh.

Though I don't like the inclusion of the foreground post which I find crowds the picture, your crisp focus and lighting gives the photo a feeling of clean freshness. Also, there are a couple of spots that are overexposed.

Ride My Bike

The photo is wonderful! Great night shot, but the predominant emphaisis here is on the scene and the gold tones which are very striking, not on the bicycle. Whlie adding a nice touch of quaintness and provinciality, the bike almost gets lost and does not seem to be the main subject.

The retro look is coming back ...

Though this appears to be a model car, the image looks so good the car almost looks real. I love the gold color. Only thing is it appears a bit dark. Good luck.

Great portrait! and even though the main subject is the boy and not the sled, I gave you a high mark. Only issue I have with the picture is the soft focus. Other than that, I like it very much. Good luck in the challenge.

Black bus zooming in the White Fog

A beautiful scene to be sure, but it appears that 1/3rd of it is obscured by your inclusion of the bus in the right of the image. To me, this detracts from the photo as I don't think the bus adds anything to the image. There isn't any nice reflection in it's windows, and it's black color makes the picture darker. It gives me a feeling of frustration as I want to peer around and see what's on the other side.

I wish I had a car...

I like the idea here very much and I'm assuming that there is a car in the background. Unfortunately, I can't seem to make one out as it appears to be too obscured by the droplets of water. Had I been able to discern some sort of vehicle behind the glass, however blured or out of focus, I would have given you a better score. Right now it seems just a jumbled mess.

XBox, TV, Movies, No! Playing in the Snow is one of the Simplest Pleasures!

This is a gem of a shot! I love it so much. You've captured so well the shear joy of childhood in a winter scene. It appears spontaneous and natural with no pretense and I like how all distractions have been eliminated. It's so universal a scene as well...who doesn't remember scenes like this when they were growing up. It's a great portrait, as well as, a great photographic accomplishment. Congratulations on a job well done.

I love the color scheme as well as the stark landscape...just wish the contrast wasn't so high as detail is lost in the snow.

Simply a Vase

Love the color scheme here very much, but would prefer not to see the reflection of the lights in the vase.
