Good subject. Nice composition. Focus is good. I'm thinking that maybe some levels tweaking in editing, perhaps dropping the darks and mids, could help make the photo really 'pop'.

Bumpy and Smooth

I like your choice here. Good texture. I like your idea of the contrasting smooth and bumpy :-) I also really like the colors in the image. The red , blue and green work together well IMO. Focus on the eyes, good, nice dof. Great job.

This is a cool concept. I like the overall effect. I think the presentation could be a lot stronger if the framing did not cut off the reflection of the barrel.

Hey, nice shot man. The reflections are very cool. I've checked out some of your stuff, you have a great eye. This composition is very nice. Cool pic, especially considering the camera you've got (I know it well, the same one I have :-) ) And a personal best too ! Great job.

Leading Lines to Power Your Home

Good concept. Fits the challenge IMO. Nice sunset. I like how the vanishing point of the towers goes into the heart of the sunset. Maybe it's just me, but I'm thinking this photo could be a little stronger with a slightly different framing/cropping. The top part to me seems a little weak. What I see is these nice lines from the wires, but then the way the 2 main wires go out one at the top and one appears in this perspective to go out the side. Also, I get a slightly unbalanced feel between the black at the bottom, the lovely golds in the middle, and then a lot of blue/gray at the top. I'm thinking that maybe cropping it to just a little above the top of the tower, that it would provide a little 'symmetry' , where there would be a little bit of black at bottom, lots of gold in the middle highlighting the main subject, then a little bit of blue/gray. Also giving a more flowing, continual feel to the lines of the wires. Just my opinion :-)
