Coyoteby WriteHeartComment: Looks like it could be the same as Cory's
Very nice capture. It reminds me of a documentary I saw about polar bears where they break the ice above seal holes. |

14-jan 2011 each to his own. normal peopleby rozComment: I don't quite get the naming of this, but wow. It's excellent. It quite took me aback when I noticed a second head! Are they manikins?
The partial desaturation's very moody. The covering with the things is mysterious.
I really like this a lot. |

gourds-and-candlesby sjhulsComment: The border suits this very well. Nice.
Lighting, too, is nice. I wonder if the mood would have been better suited to a perfectly flat, and not-textured back. I only say that cause I can't think of anything constructive to say :) |

Horse BWby WriteHeartComment: I think I prefer this B&W version, but I think that's cause I'm going through a nearly exclusively B&W phase. |

Snow Bikeby pmichaudComment: Excellent! I was hoping to find one of these myself, but people kept on using the snow for snowballs! :( |

Hard Laborby dswannComment: A "cliché" work image at first glance.
But look at it more and we have the hammer (scraped head, worm body, aged sticker) has seen a lot of work. The glove allows a worker to do more work. The rolled up sleeve suggests a man ready for work. The tilt of the image suggests a mid-swinging--work in progress!
Holding a hammer may not be an appropriate work image, but your set of props, the particulars of composition and the lighting (with the dark background I think brings out the hammer nicely from the handle and arm) and what I said above... the image screams of work!
Two slight criticisms :)
* I'd imagine if real work was being done the worker might hold the hammer more towards the end of its handle. I suppose it depends on what's being done, but you wouldn't get greatest purchase from your swing with a mid-handle hold.
* I'd like to know what's being hammered. Work (in my opinion) is both the act of doing something (which you've captured here) but also the resulting object (which you haven't). It'd probably result in a completely different type of image though, and maybe that's not what you wanted to capture.
I'd envisage a mid-to-late 5's finish for this.
I'd give it 6. |

New Year's Dawnby markwileyComment: Excellent concept.
For me the frame is too wide, and the picture a little noisy and if I voted I might have dropped it from a 6 or 7 down to a 5 or 6 as a result.
Really good concept though. I might have to borrow it for some shots of my own sometime :) |

Bass River, Sunset, New Year's Dayby Bear_MusicComment: Incredible what you can do with the tone mapping. Beautiful result. Very very well done.
I reckon you'd need to train your eye a lot to see the potential that you can achieve from a shot like the original. |
