An all too-familiar sight I'm afraid, you've captured the feel of it pretty well.

Window on Dreams gone By

Strong lines/shapes give this an almost abstract feel to it, even with all the objects clearly identifiable. I wonder what it would look like with a significant blur applied.

Alignment of the reflections of the rock wall and white line with the backgrouns structures is perfect, and helps reinforce the concept of time passing.

I'm curious about the big bottle full of corks -- is this a wine-making supply shop?

Use of the partial desaturation technique makes sense here, and is well-done.

Nice combination of action and solidity, contrast of straight lines and wavy lines.

Lonely tree

If you follow the levels around it forms a spiral leading from the foreground back to the tree -- very nice effect.

Originally posted by fotodude: the post prosses here is very drastic and i can see the eadges, next time watch for that with feathering or blend it better in another way so it is less appearent. also using DoF to achieve the same resould would have saved time and been a cleaner image in the end.....its a nice cover also but doesn't strike me as a studio portrait...this is based on the difused/and somewhat flat light (as from a cloudy day)... a spot simple home light set up and it would read more as studio...

You are quite right on two points -- sloppy masking and an outdoors shot. I was rushed in my editing (shot the last day) and had zero indoor portraiture opportunities during the week. My camera will only achieve a shallow DOF on macros, hence my attempt to achieve it in post-processing.

Interesting humor; maybe a little over-sharpened, esp. at the bottom.
