Can't get much clearer than this, and applaud getting it right, considering the speed!

Excellent shot!!
The leading line of the rocks, drawing my eyes up to the fisherman is perfect.
Bumping up and adding to my favorites - this moves my soul.

Pampering Mans Best Friend

The harshness of the high contrast and the reflections in the eyes makes this a touch difficult to look at for very long.
I don't have an off-camera flash to prevent the eye reflections, but learned to get creative taking pics of my cat by using a ping-pong ball over the flash head to ease the effect a bit.

Life Over Turbulent Waters II

Excellent job on the focus here. Not sure if the water desturation works best on this. Perhaps a slightly toned down blue/green would have added to it.

Good timing on capturing the sky's colors and not having just a plain black sky. I like the point of view and crop here.

Greatsense of perspective and spatial dimension.
Had you shot this one foot higher or lower, the distortion would not have looked right. Well done!

Natural Elegance

What a beautiful horse portrait!
A little more post-processing was kinda' needed to desaturate the rest along the horizon and a touch in the mane.
As a suggestion, and if you are using Photoshop, try new layer via copy, then add a warming filter (usually the default one that comes up), then while still in the layer, carefully use the eraser tool to erase back the horse. This will add a slightly warmer tone to the desaturated background.

Reflections of Brugge

Beautiful tones and what a great crop/composition with having 2/3 being the gorgeous reflection.

I wish the tonemapping wouldn't affect areas beside sharp-lines like the flagpole. I've had to spend a bit of time cleaned/cloning those odd-ball areas to preserve a more natural look.
This is a good example of not over-doing the new methods avaialble to us.

I really like the tones & colors in this as well as the wide-aspect ratio presentation. The frame works well here.
I'm not sure if it's the size or the lighting, but seems like there is some uneven dodge/burn in this, creating blotchy areas.
