Friends Of The Swamp - "The Annual Turtle Jump"
by LVE

Comment:
The scene is quite funny. Your image is too busy though, the turtles and the heron are lost amidst the many branches and reflections of the surrounding fauna.
Whilst borders are a matter of taste, you should make sure it's symmetric - yours looks as if it had been painted by hand. 3.

The Intimate Fulcrum — Love's Failed Leap
by Bear_Music

Comment:
Your subject is not very interesting. The Woodies are hard to handle in photography, if you use them you should make sure that it results in something unusual and unexpected. On the technical side, your subject is lit too flatly and casts distracting shadows on the background. (You can prevent this by moving the background further back.) The picture might also profit from a stronger contrast, it would add to the nice textures in the wood. 3.

Fiddler on the Storm

Comment:
Quite a surreal image. The colours and softness work well, the model is lacking contrast though. Maybe an off-center composition would have added some dynamism and movement. 7.

The moment is captured quite well, but the composition should be less static. The leading lines go past your point of interest. 6.

Change of Underwear Needed!

Comment:
I like the old feeling your image conveys because of the vignetting and contrast. 8.

I'm not voting in this challenge, but I congratulate you to your courage to enter an OOF picture on DPC. Good luck.

Sidewalk view

Comment:
I am impressed by your mental ability to see things as what they can be. I would have walked by and not even noticed the abstract possibilities of framing and flipping the given. The perspective is overwhelming, so is the contrast between patterned colour areas, gradiented surfaces and pitch black blocks.

I like your use of horizontal and diagonal lines, and how the couple as the only element breaking them in an upward movement. I think their position in the frame is well balanced.

Asynchronous Transmutations

Comment:
I enjoy the parallelism you created here between two natural phenomenes. It's interesting to compare them in terms of the emotions we associate with each.

A very interesting picture. It reminds me of Matisse's "La Danse". The award is well deserved.
