great idea, but the crop leaves something to be desired. The large nostril in the top of the frame would have been better cropped out.

crisp and clear but you've got a bit of a wide angle distortion problem that would have looked better corrected

great capture of one of my newest favorite Chicago landmarks. You'll be glad you have the shot years from now when you can talk about how you watched them "buff the Bean"! I liked it with the seams, but it looks even better smooth. well done.

Spice Bowls

I like the idea here a lot - showing the different textures in the containers. but I think the execution could be improved. the simple plastic bowls aren't very attractive, the background is bland and the crop is poor. If you had, for example, lined up the bowls carefully and cropped so that each had exactly 1/4 of the bowl in each corner, it would have provided more visual punch.
