Living the Dream

This would be my daughter's dream. Nice idea, decent candid shot, the light on her shirt makes it a bit washed out on my monitor but the cropping is good to me and the overall effect is well done.

Hummmmmmmmmm, a frightening image but not that much in daylight, if it was a darker it would be much more scary. The cropping on the bottom makes me want to know what is on his fingers!

I like the concept but the shadows and light reflections are a bit too distracting to me. Maybe if you had come at a different angle or lighted them a little differently?

He looks so sad! What a perfect title for this shot. The background blends in almost too well but otherwise the capture, the cropping is excellent.

And you did just that, have a dream fulfilled! The clouds reflecting on the lake, the rays of sun peeking over the horizon, the mist on the valley to the left, couldn't ask for much more.

Please, anything but the camera

OMG, when I first saw this shot I thought to myself, "YIKES!!!!!!!!!!" As I come back to the shot I am amazed and curious how this is done without smashing the camera and I hope you do provide an answer!

As for the picture, the motion of the hammer to the clarity of the camera is wonderful, the lighting is a little bright for my taste and the background could be slightly darker to make it perfect for me.

The shower!!!!!!! EEEEEEEKKKKK! This reminds me slightly of the Alfred Hitchcock movie, one of my favorite producers. If this was a curtain and in black and white it would have gotten a 10! Anyway, the shot itself is well cropped, and the lighting is just about perfect, if it was slightly more red or darker orange I would have given this a 9 or 10.

I have got to know how these shots are done! I didn't think you could do double exposure with a digital! The surreal quality of the photo is excellent, the man really comes off as a someone watching over her from another plain, the slight furrowing of her brow, the sadness on her face is just right to indicate a slightly restless sleep. The only think that could have made this better for me is just slight more contrast and a little less light. Otherwise, excellent.

At first glance I thought this was a real person and thought, "EWWWW, would would allow themselves to have that stuff put all over them?" , LOL! But upon closer examination I see it's a statue, DUH! :)

This is one of my favs for portrait itself, the lighting, the dark to light, the colors on the statue really appeal to me and the statue gives the impression of a day dreamer, wondering what else is out there. Well done.

This would be a nightmare for the bride no doubt. The smeared makeup, the runny nose really add to the shot and make it that much more realistic, I hope it wasn't real! The anguish on her face and the clenched fists really finish this portrait for me.
