Hilarious! I think the only thing thats holding you back here is lighting. I would like to see his face better lit. His expression (and the creativity of this shot) are spot on!

Clever title - very cute shot. Nice colors, though some of the branches against the sky look a bit over-sharpened.

Great shot! The focus on the face looks just a touch soft, but not bad. It looks like the sharpest focus is on his forearm.

I like the slight flim-grain/noise in here. Great human element, and way to capture a very natural looking pose.

Steam Engine on Ice

This is going to score low because of the harsh JPEG compression visible: in the blue of the ice, there are blocky JPEG artifacts. Around the datestamp (probably not a popular option to leave turned on) there is a lot of JPEG noise.

On the up side, the composition seems pretty nice, though the train may be just a touch dark.

I assume that you have a low end camera, so I feel your pain. I had a cheap Kodak point-and-shoot for a long time which produced very blocky looking images. I hope you can get a better camera soon!

Good choice of POV - it makes this train look large and daunting.

Interesting shot. It looks like it's oversaturated on my montior.
