Silence...

A very telling story. A nice shot but a lot of distraction with the background of trees to the right. Maybe a tighter crop on the right? I love the use of the black and white on this shot, a touch more contrast would really make this shot work for me. As is a 7

The silent scream! Wonderful capture of the fish, Koi I believe? At first it's a little difficult to tell where the shot was taken then I see the tiny ripple next to his mouth. A bit of straightening on this shot and if you could have captured the other fin on the right it would be a really cool shot. As is a 6

Not a bad idea but the overall shot leaves me really wanting. I can barely make out the tree in the top and yes my monitor is calibrated. The grassy area is dull and not very pleasing to the eye. A 3

Excellent, it was my highest scoring shot and would have probably bumped to a 10 if I had time to come back and check it again. Congrats!

Life is Hard

An interesting shot, not sure about the conflict really involved, it doesn't show on her face and honestly, did she need to be nude? I think this would be much better with her in a halter type top, the nudity ends up distracting from this shot to me. And before you think I don't like nudes, I do, if done tastefully as this one was but not always needed. A 5

Our being is a constant conflict between life and death

The eternal conflict, life vs. death. I see the life through the church but where is the death represented? The sun is a bit too bright and overpowers the shot. Also the wall in the front looks noisy for some reason. A 5

Fire The Canon

Not sure I get the conflict here unless you are thinking of past conflicts with the cannon? Nice shot overall, good contrast but the crop on the bottom left seems a bit tight for some reason to me. The snow looks a bit blown out but not too badly. A 6

Very nice! Now, what are they fighting over? :)

Excellent colors, wonderful expressions, nice lighting and the cropping is close to perfect. A 9

Conflict Between Spring And Winter (I know who wins)
by Mona

Comment:
AT least this time of year you know who wins, LOL! Come November it will be the other way around if you are in the Northern Hemisphere.

A nice shot, the branches leading you in and out of the shot, the solid black ground is very nice. The border is a bit much maybe just a bit smaller? An 8
