Planescape-2

I like the planescape, it appeases the geologist in me. A bit more contrast might make the image pop, it seems a little flat; the colors seem a bit muted as well, but that might be my (crappy) monitor. The plateau below left center looks like a discus thrower just after release the disc, with the plateau to the side being the discus. At least that's what I see :)

Cribbage

Comment:
For me I think it would help if the observer had a sense of direction, ie a reference as to where the pegs are with respect to the finish. I see this was the intent of the dof and oof peg nearest the observer, but it doesn't quite work without a reference point. Maybe a view with the pegs just on this side of the finish line, especially if the cribbage board had "finish" written on it. Then have a title like "Almost there" or "Two more to go" or some such.

Couple that with shiney pegs (someone else's suggestion) and see what the result is. Overall I like the photo, the lighting, the contrast.

(Edit for another title idea).

Took a second to recognize the bg as a kleenex box, may a little more dof would have helped. Great idea!

I like the idea. I think if the flame were lighting a cigar it would have done more for me though.

Simple and effective. Great lines to lead the eye across the image. Too bad the shoe didn't fit :( All in all something I would hand on my wall.

Thanks for the comments and critiques. After viewing this shot on monitors other than mine I've decided that my next purchase is a new monitor. Thank you SJ for the vote of confidence!

Nice sharp photo. For me a tighter crop would bring this shot together. 6

Cute cub, nice colors. A tight crop just on the face would have done wonders for me. 6.5 up to a 7.

Nice capture. Maybe a polarizer to cut some of the glare from the bubble, other than that I like the expressions. Good use of "thinking outside the animal". 7
