Duckling and Mom
by shadow

Comment:
Very clear shot. Nice amount of detail (maybe too much detail ;) The flash was needed, I'm sure, but casts that unnatural shadow. The ducks seem oily/dirty, true to what you saw, but less appealing. I think I may have hard on the photo due to the subject, score upgrade from 6 to 7. Rob the Swash

Photo-Evolution
by Anachronite

Comment:
Oh, I see the ant! I like this. Butterflies are very difficult to satisfy "the masses". The big ones are easier to get a shot of, but offer a surprisingly large photo surface. The tail section being totally out of focus is going to "bug" some (it's not that easy!!). This looks like my Morphio jelendian, but smaller. I like the negative view. The b&w view seems non-descript. The color view seems a bit muted.
Still, all that said, I like this series and gave it a 9 before I knew who did it. Rob the Swash

Vampire's Rest

Comment:
Very well taken photo, the join is "too good", as I really thought this was a single photo. Very eirie, good "setting of the mood". Perhaps a little too much light on the woman's forehead (she's a vampire, you know). I now see the repeated books. Damn, I hate missing "clues". Score upgrade to 9. Rob the Swash

I'm sure the upper half glared out was on purpose, but honestly, I don't like it. I kinda feel it adds to the "artsy"-ness, but not as a photo (does that make sense).

Red Shouldered Hawk

Very cool shot! Really good detail. The sun is a tad harsh on the sunny side shoulder, but that's a bit of a nit. Very good color. 9 Rob the Swash (nearly a 10!)

No, I don see them. This photo seems to have that "solarize" look. It makes the greens are less than sharp and fuzzes some of the detail. 6 Rob the Swash

Comment:
A bit small of a view (please use a larger frame). Contrast between the forest and the bone skull isn't very strong. Focus - hard to say, I can't see that much.

Owl

Very clear photo of a decoy owl. (Cropped the base - did it look even less natural?) A bit of a flash shadow, might want to watch that. 6 Rob the Swash

Nasty! It's pretty sharp, but not very contrasty. Poor half eaten thing. 6 Rob the Swash

Cute little guy. Nice color, but "soft focus"? It has that sort of feel. Embarrassed by it being naked? 6 Rob the Swash
