How wonderful that the reds and yellows in the tulips echo the reds and yellows in the balloons... what a surreal and serene scene. I do actually find myself wishing the photog was not in the shot, LOL.

What a beautiful pose, and what great execution on your part. You should be very proud of this one.

The Voyage Of The Ark: Prelude

I like this quite a bit, particularly the choice of viewpoint and composition. I'm just a tiny bit put off by the rather intense post-processing. It does work pretty well for this image, however.

Beautiful image, enhanced by the narrow DoF. I suspect that some may have been post-processing (hands) however if so it was very well done. The complex shape of the catchlights in the eyes is just slightly distracting... but you really didn't have a lot of choice there, did you?

Partners II

What a great capture... I can tell that you worked the relative exposure of the sky and near side of the nearer animal, but it is very well done. I very much like the end result.

This is a positively wonderful street candid. your timing was drop-dead perfect. Love the tones of your final image; nice choice there.

ROAD IN THE WINTER

What an unusual winter scene... the white frost on the trees, the fog, the vivid reds and blues of the foreground and sky.
Very nice choice of viewpoint and composition, and very good post processing. I do detect a small amount of haloing on the foreground tree branches against the sky, perhaps dial back sharpening just a tad.

well seen, well shot, and well processed. Perfect retention of detail without any oversharpening. Kudos.

Kogel Bay Twilight

What a surreal seascape, mad all the more so by the long exposure. Beautifully captured.
You have done a great job on post on this... just the right amount of sharpness. There is a hint of posterization in the sky, which is ever so hard to avoid in a very smoothly graduated blue sky.It is just barely apparent in the final image (it appears mostly in the red channel, less in the green, and just visible in the blue)
