Stunning light. Gets my vote for a ribbon.

I've been there! Mine is not a fantastic image, but here is one of my snaps (it mirrors the 20 yuan note).



Great place - shame your horizon is a bit off and parts of the sky look a little overexposed and parts over-burned.

Birds Of Prey

Great capture - I don't know whether you could have cropped to focus on the bird with prey and have excluded the overexposed one.

Baalbeck...City of the sun

One of may favourite places - it is hard to imagine the scale here (though I know it to be huge beyond belief). I think that the temple of Bacchus behind it is more photogenic!

That looks a bit like one of GWB's expressions!! I like the angle on this. Good tonality.

Mushrooms - I like this kind (but cannot remember their name - enocchi?) Nice lighting and colours.

horizon wonky! What is the subject matter here?

For this kind of shot, it might pay dividends to find a more "perfect" model - contact lenses and the injury don't help this image.

Venus di Milo

Ooh - looks busy! Not sure I like the crowd, though I see what you are trying to achieve.

Image is oversharpened (see the jaggies on the statue's side) and parts are overexposed (shirts of some of the viewers).

A shallow depth of field might have worked well here to keep the focus on the statue and keep the crowd in the background - IMO, you need the impression of a crowd more than the distracting detail.
