Nice cloudscape. Good variation of light and dark, and the composition that you chose appeals to me. 8

Interesting subject and color. Composition works pretty well for me, but the shot is not high impact for me emotionally. 8

Takin' it Easy

Sweet shot, one of my favorite subjects. Overall, I like the shot, but don't care for the extremely tight crop, it makes the shot feel a bit crowded to me, I would have liked to see a little "breathing room". I do realize that this may have been unavoidable, and otherwise, l like it. 8

I like the subject, and the color of the shot. The composition feels a little "off" for me, feels like there is a little too much sky. The flower does not appear crisp and sharp, and allowing for the possibility that you intended it this way, or that it was unavoidable, (or that it's my monitor!), I think I would have preferred to see a bit more of a sharper focus on the flower. 8

I like the subject, and the way you have it framed, but the shot isn't real high impact for me. 8

Though this shot doesn't have a lot of "emotional" appeal to me, I do like the shot, and especially like the black and white. Don't think I would have liked it much in color, it wouldn't have the same stark, artsy feel to it. 9

Like this shot a lot. Nice composition, love that you decided on the reflection instead of just taking a straight on shot of the beast. Has a very nice "painterly" feel to it. 9

Gorgeous shot, love the black and white. Very moody, mysterious and cold. Wouldn't want to live there I don't think. 10

Face-to-Face In the Snow

Cool shot, and what a cute little pink nose! None of "our" squirrels would ever let us get that close! I like that you kept the tree in the shot instead of having the little guy just out there kind of "floating" in the snow. 8
