Fine finish for a fine shot. The tonalities in this are wonderful. Anti-texture, LOL.

WTG Laurie! I love this one, tells a story, "candid" v "portrait".

Poker Face

Great finish Cory. Congrats. I believe it's an Eland, the largest of the antelope family. The horns are a bit more twisted than any Eland I've seen though, so I'm not sure.

extraordinary texture! well seen! Perhaps processing for a little more luminosity would help kick it up a notch.

Wall of Glass

The tonalities/luminance are lovely here. The reflection and the figure add a lot. The terribgly skewed perspective isn't helpful, though. Have you tried photoshop's "skew" tool to clean it up?

This is REALLY sly! One of the best titles I've ever seen. The image is very nice too, a unique perspective. I don't care for the heaviness of the framing, myself, but that's just me.

Colored Reflection

What groggy said: you got to desat the exposed part of the rock as well. Then you're good to go.

It's a nice shot. Technically, I am having problems with the vertical shadow on the right wall falling onto the adjacent plane. It's impossible to tell where one wall ends and the other bgegins, so the juxtaposition of these two planes is fuzzily-expressed. Had the light been allowed to come around a hair more to your left, you could have it raking what's now the shadowed surcae, and this would be MUCH more expressive of the shapes & volumes here.
