You really have to look at this shot for a while and then you can see the smoothness throughout the whole shot; the skin of the bone, the background. An excellent peace and stillness in the captured moment.

Excellent shot; great eye; perfect crop. The textures are freaking amazing here- wood (oak v. pine) brick - the lighting; very nice. The no food or drink sign kind of doesn't help. But all in all, superb.

Nice, robotic, California style, lots of glass and concrete, super green blues, Great detail;- the lampost- fantastic; high marks here; its not a "textbook" pretty shot, but it is intersting.

I love the colors and the detail on the plant that makes it look like grain... I gues I would like to see a bit more negative space and placement in a sweet spot rather than dead center.

Simple; like a painting; great use of red and perspective with the white fence; The soccer goal is a bit anachronistic,and thats just a minor issue. Nice how the subject fills the frame and squeezes out the dark sky pointing to the heavens.

Where else, but Queensland?

I like the colors your have going in the sky; youv'e got ultramarine above the city- cobalt an dcerulean to the right upper side; and payne's gray as shadows and water. Theres a bit of a sharpening effect as well as a skew to the photo thats a bit unnatural; but this, overall, is spectacular.

And Fire In The Sky

Excellent post apocalyptic look at a city scape. The city breathes in metal and roads and glass and then sprawls out to recede into the red horizon. There may be a bit of an exposure problem with the sun; and there may be not enough focal points in the sweet spot- the viewers eye gets spread out a bit too much. But all in all I still think its great.

Whats really great about this shot is that you have the colors and the setup of a landscape; even a nice object positioned there. Very well done, Nice work.

I love live shots; and you have a good one here; I have some mission of burma shots, and some dinosaur jr shots that I really like;

To me, there is not much worse that a live shot that is stone cold focused, has aflashfilled face and a midnight black background. Pearl Jam is not that, Pearl Jam is grainy. Alive. you have captured their spirit here. Excellent.

By the way , I finds it ironic that you like to sharpen and cool your shots, when they otherwise convey such great warmth in the subjects- and as it follows,I suppose, in the artist. Just an observation.

Such a great shot; so well lit; crisp; almost too bright but super.
