What Becomes of the Broken Hearted

Somehow this reminds me of Janis Joplin. Very good emotive image IMHO. Sort of dark, but that fits the mood well.

West Palm Beach

I like the detail in the foreground in this, and the blue everywhere looks good too. Most sunsets have a lot of orange or some red in them, so this is a refreshing view.
This brings back some good memories. I lived near Okechobee Blvd for a few years around 1970, and it looks like the Southern Blvd bridge to Palm Beach on the left edge. If the twin buildings are "Arcona", I worked on them when they were being built. They were the tallest in the area at that time at 37 floors.

Reflective Palette

What a color explosion. It looks very much like a painting. You tend to find the most colorful things to photograph.

I like the colorful cups, and the way you used the background paper to show them off. This image has me thinking about how to get this shot without getting a reflection in the darker cup. I am not a studio shooter at all, but there are many tricks used in the studio that I feel that would help me when shooting in the field. I find it interesting the way side light and exposure makes the black background look brown on my monitor. I also like that you made use of the complimentery colors of trim bands on the tops of the mugs by shooting from a bit above the tops. It's a good image, and makes me think about coffee. Mental response by the viewer is what good photography is about.

I like the way the valley brings the background right on top of the foreground without much in the middle in this image. With the right sky and lighting conditions this would be a very striking image. The light that you had at the time does bring out the contours of the scene well just as you have it here. It looks like it will be easy to use P S to class this image up.

Wide aperture isolates the subject nicely in this image. I like the light from above and behind shining thru the flower and reflecting off the web as well. The web adds to the effect by helping to show the size of the flower.

I need to be learning photoshop, and I think your edits are helping fire up the desire to do it soon.

Roz, Love the way you are not afraid to twist the knobs when you get an image in the computer. What would otherwise be just a thru the windshield shot has become an artsy looking peek into your world. I like the rich colors in the edit for this scene.

A longer lens would have been useful to get the subject isolated better for this one. Did you notice that if you sit back a couple of feet that there appears to be half of a face in the right edge of the image, with the leaf covering the nose area? It looks somewhat like the statues on Easter Island.
The tiger's pose is very striking in this image. I think you will be able to do a lot with editing to bring out the good in this image.

Same as Roz says about this one. I even called my wife in to see it, which means that it's really special. Thanks for posting this one, and don't worry about when it was taken.
