From Russia with love

I think I remember this young lady from another well prepared image in another challenge some time ago. Very attractive...hard to forget. ;^) I like the approach you've taken with the fasion piece - very trendy, nice pose by the model, great attention to the details (lighting, exposure, focus, etc...). Some nitpicking to do on the hair showing under her left hand. This leads to the fuzzies (?) on her visible gloved hand. Minor, I know.

This shot would be a fine image for publication. Well done.

This one should get the unique concept award. ;^) Very interesting approach to the challenge AND a fun image to look at as well. Nice job.

Great colors with the yellow and blue...attractive model and the mask adds a nice touch. Too bad about the dust bunnies. ;^) Overall, very nice image. Good luck in the challenge.

Cool colors and good use of leading lines. Good eye to see this and capture it.

Breaking down

This is an interesting photo. One thing hard to grasp is the scale of the ice. I have a feeling that the chunks of ice are pretty large, but without anything to give it context (boat, person, etc...) it's hard to know.

Another cool factor in this image is the high contrast created by the bright whites and the dark shadows.

Smile and keep having fun! ;^)

Tickling the Ivories

This is a nice shot and probably would have done "OK" in the challenge. It's funny, I've done a nearly identical shot for some stock work and the thing that jumped out at me was the dirt that shows up on the black keys. ;^) That might have cost you a point or two... One other consideration - have you mirrored this? The eye tends to be more natural/comfortable to go left to right (Western culture thing I guess).

Smile and keep having fun! ;^)

Yikes! Reminds me of the movie 'Fly' - and that scared the cr** out of me as a kid. ;^)

Wonderful perspective shot here. I'd imagine there are some other times of the day to setup here as well. Only thing on the down side is the hazy sky and buildings...wish it were a little clearer.

Smile and keep having fun! ;^)

That's some pretty serious equipment they're carrying! Good thing you didn't tick em off. ;^) Hope you enjoyed your trip.

Hey! What a fun place to get some photos! I like this shot better than the other. Seeing more of the runoff lends a leading line into the image, and the brick wall facing the sun is better exposed in this shot. Very cool!

Smile and keep having fun! ;^)
