Airport wind sock

Nice dramatic sky and light, a bit surreal with the markers. I think a zoom to the sock against the sky might have improved this--for Wind, the subject is too much a part of the background rather than a focal point. The markers seem to be the focal point here.

Nice idea; I think you should have cropped the building on the left mostly, putting the pole almost at the edge and the sock in the left third.

Good idea, great background (except it provides little contrast against the seedlings). I think you needed a bit higher shutter speed though, or else resolution or a focus issue is making this too soft.

Nice softness, and good composition. However, with the end of the feather cropped, it's hard to get the feeling that this is floating.

Good for challange, but lacks clarity, and the light is very flat.

Neat shot, perfet for wind, but much too noisy in the sky it's distracting. Also, you might have tried avoiding placing the focal point (the blowing snow), so close to vertical center. You could have cropped a lot of the noisy sky and placed the snow on the upp er third line. Or cropped some of the land below and gone for dramatic impact by using negative space (but then you would need to run neatimage or equivalent to eliminate the noise).

Now this is funny because I had the EXACT same idea, but didn't do it!

I wish the cat were in better focus, but that expression is priceless, so it's a hit!
