I really like the tones of this photo..I'd love to know what you did in post processing! I really like that you captured the hands being busy, but I'd love it even more if she was looking at the camera..or perhaps even at her feet. Good lighting on this shot.

The portraitist

Very nicely composed! I like that you captured him right in the action! Though I'm sure it would be difficult to do, a little bit of eye contact with the camera would really give this a strong portrait feel for me.

Plenty to look at for interest in this shot! Good color all around. To me, this photo would pop a bit more if the booth worker were looking at the camera.

Water in a Drought

Wow! Nice timing with this capture! Colors came out really well on this shot. Certain parts of the bird look a little indistinct to me...perhaps too much NeatImage? Great job catching that water drop!

Very nice detail and lighting on the cheetah! For my personal tastes, I feel as though it's cropped a bit close for *this* challenge...meaning that I wish I had a greater sense of this animal's environment. But nicely done nonetheless.

I really like that the colored gels are in this shot...gives a small dash of color to the otherwise black background. A very nice portrait shot and fits the challenge very well.

Great portrait!! Fits the challenge perfectly! I really like that he's in the middle of placing something, giving some action and interest to the photo. He's making great eye contact, which really gives the photo some impact to the viewer. Sepia tones work fine for me here, though I'd be curious to see it in black and white as well! Great job!!

Out of Water

For me, this is a bit of a stretch for the challenge topic. *But* it has a lot of things that I like! It's a very emotive photo and I think the black and white works very well. You've done a good job with the composition and the angle of the shot as well.
