OH this is great. I didn't think I'd see any humans in this challenge so this is a pleasant surprise. The clarity of his right eye is awesome. The use of negative space creates a nice composition. I like the crop over his hat and the tiny reflection of the light on the snap of his shirt, which helps bring your eyd down. Well done!! 10

Oh cool. I like the round archway leading up the the tall flame. The symmetry is perfect and works in this instance. 8

I just love the smokestack with the movmement of the smoke/steam. The tree in the foreground helps give it some perspective. I wish that the ground in the foreground wasn't so blacked out. Maybe that's due to the time of day. Or perhaps, convert to black and white and it might be more effective. Still, well composed. 7

I really like the idea of the old rusted vehicle, but I think it loses impact due to the tight crop. It's almost "too close," if you get my drift. I think if you included more of the field, or land around it, you'd tell more of a story. I think the overhead perspective kind of loses something too. Maybe sit down on the ground, looking across the area instead of looming over it. Hope you find this helpful.

I like the composition. This would be great with a curves adjustment.

I like the perspective and the composition but it's screaming post editing to me. Sepia? Or perhaps black and white? Maybe adjusting curves would have given it some oomph. 7

This is creepy - I really like it. Anytime I have to look up a word in the dictionary, that deserves at least an exta point!! 9
