Battle for Columbus Street

The shot is nice a clear, but it strikes me as pretty much just a snapshot, nothing creative. The pyramid looking building also appears to me to be a little out of focus, but it's kind of hard to tell from this distance.

It is cool (or hot?)...and a little spooky! I think I see some faces in there (could just be that it's 2:30 in the morning.)

That is a really cool effect. The photo seems to lend itself to this treatment very well. I love seeing what can be done to photos to change the look completely. Well done!

Pondering the Grey Hues of Life

Her skin looks way too bright and that black top looses all detail so you can't tell where her arm is. It also doesn't look focused on the face to me.

Cool idea. I would like to see one where it's just a photo of the shadow.

Little White Houses

This is a typical scene, but I like the way you've captured it with the smooth sky and the b/w tones. Not a favorite, but nicely done I think.

It seems a lot of the detail of the statue is lost with the harsh lighting.

Clouds in the Water

I don't really find the composition here interesting. To me, the most interesting part is the foggy mist in the background, which might have made a closer shot of the pier more appealing to me. The rocky beach area on the right of the photo is very dark and doesn't add anything to the pic, imo. I think raising the lens up to capture more of the sky would have helped.

Nice composition, but the tones looked washed out to my eye. The focus on the face seems a little soft, though that may be intentional - I think I would like this better a little sharper.

The Shed

I don't find the subject interesting and it seems that the details are lost in the high contrast of light and dark.
