Land Between the Lakes

Nice soft feeling about this image, but that halo around the kid in the water is very distracting. I have no idea what technique you used, but I'm pretty sure that proper use of gaussian blur could have avoided this artifact. I'm just learning how to use Gaussian Blur myself and am quickly realizing that it can work wonders.

Bré : The Scenic Seaside Town

The expanse of beach does not really add any thing to the photo shot from so close to the ground. I think a better approach would have been to get the camera as high as possible off the ground to give a better feeling of perspective. The way it's shot here almost shows us a grounded seagull's point of view. Very nice sky with wispy clouds. Could have been underexposed a bit to get better colours on the buildings and to avoid blown out whites.

Nice urban shot, but slightly overexposed boats and condo towers. Love the colours of the aquabus.

Nice shot, but too bad about those blown out windows and the right part of the cupola. I have never tried this type of shot, but it must a nightmare to meter properly. Good job centering your shot.

National Carillion

I find the lighted part of the carillion a bit too saturated to my liking and there is a very visible hot spot. I wonder if a shorter exposure time could have helped?

Too bad the back of the statue is cutting out the edge of the sign on the building.

Man, texaz Longhorns are scary lookin'. Too bad you couldn't get closer to get more cows and cowboys and less surroundings.

Too bad about that brown object running across the bottom of the image. A pretty good image apart from that.
