Wonderful shot, should have figured you'd score highly in this one!

I've seen some variations on this idea, but this is my favourite. It's amazing the baggage we all carry with us. I think a shot like this takes a lot of courage, thanks for the picture!

The Guitarist

I don't see any guitarists here. I'm not into your crop, I'm not sure where you intended the pof to be. Grain in b&w gig shots can work very well, but it hasn't done it for me here, maybe because there isn't enough tonal contrast here for my liking. There is loads of contrast on the arm though, but this stands out too much against the rest of the picture. I feel that the face is where I want to rest, and it's just not clear enough here. I think that the bass player would have looked like this throughout the entire gig, and you haven't captured him at a key moment. 4

Granite Totems

Nicely polarised sky... not much here to keep my interest though. Looks like it was composed with rule of thirds in mind... but other than that I'm not quite sure what you were wanting to achieve with this. Some VERY bad JPEG artifacting... the photo is only about 90k, you could have saved a 150k file. 4

Haystacks - A Tribute to the Impressionist Master
by Coley

Comment:
I'm not really a fan of Monet's haystacks... maybe this is why when I look at this photo and admire the long shadows and rich colours I wish I were there to point my camera at something else! The haystacks don't really stand out enough against the ground for the composition to really 'wow' me, and it's a shame the wispy clouds on the left don't really add much interest to the sky. The greens in this photo are a bit dull... I'd have livened them up a tad in PS. I think the main problem with the composition is that there is no clear POF... my eye doesn't really know where to settle and where to flow to. 4

"Back" Cover Girl

This must have taken you a few goes to integrate the magazine with your model so flawlessly. I have to say though that this photo doesn't really do a lot for me... I see a well taken snapshot. I don't know why, but the edge of her left arm is grey... what did you do in PS that resulted in this?! 4
