Very nice sort of time exposure / night photography. I love the feel of movement. I also wonder how a tighter crop would have looked, there is a huge amount of dark empty sky.

This has a "snapshot" feel to it. Ibelieve it could do with a little more post processing, although the composition is quite good.

I love the clarity of this photo. I can almost feel the texture of his feathers. Nicely done.

Sepia was a very nice choice for this photo. This is reminicient of an old time photograph. I am sure that was the feeling you were going for.

I do not know why this photo has no comments, its quite lovely. The model fairly glows, and the exposure is perfect.

I love photographic art that leaves me speechless. I find it most difficult to express my feelings on images like this one. This photograph is extremely moving, with a very gentle feeling to it.

This photograph speaks volumes, the theme of the challenge was met in a beautiful way. I can feel the love as well as see it. You and your love are connected even though you are separated by the glass. Love transcends the barrier, so to speak.

This is the first challenge I have voted on in a long time and I'm glad I did. This photograph is one that you should be very proud of. Excellent work. I love it :)

I am sorry this critique leaves a little bit to be desired in the technical aspects of photography, but there is truly nothing that need to be changed here.

Love is in the stars - The Big Dipper

Greetings from the Critique Club...

COMPOSITION... I love this photo, and am a big sucker for night shots in general. The fact that the aurora was faint and not at the angle you would have like does not distract from the beauty at all. The leaning shed takes up the appropriate amount of space, allowing a huge amount of clear sky. The big dipper takes a backseat to the aurora as well it should.

TECHNIQUE... This is a wonderfully captured night shot. The shed has enough light so as not be be dark, but not so much that it distracts from the scene.

OVERALL.. You have met the challenge nicely, and the photo itself is nicely done. The expanse of sky is very dramatic, the aurora shows up well and the stars are wonderful. I am sorry this critique is not more detailed. There is really nothing I would change, nothing you could have done to improve this photograph. I gave it a 10 during voting.
