Long Forgotten

Good subject, and the colors give a real feeling of desolation. I've got mixed feelings about the wires. Barbed wire certainly gives a "country" feel, but I'm not sure it adds that much across the middle of this picture.

Clam-Digger's Shack, Sunset

Comment:
I really, really like this. Good colors, good focus, good everything. This is just me, but I probably would have cropped it off above the trees, so you have a strong leading line down to the building. Either way, it's a great shot.

A Simple Faith

I like the church and the green roof, but there seems to be a blur on the edges. I'd like to see the whole thing in sharp focus.

Rooster

IMHO this picture needs some work. It's hard to see the rooster on the busy background. You need to do something (adjust contrast, maybe) to make him stand out from the background.

Week-end Retreat

Interesting composition, but I think it would come across better printed out rather than on a computer screen. I had to scroll to see the whole thing and almost missed that the solid white line across the bottom was more snow. The trees are beautiful, but I think for purposes of viewing on a computer monitor, you would have done better with a shorter, squarer crop.

The blurred grass in the foreground is really distracting.

The Chicken Coup guardian

Comment:
Did you mean coop or are the chickes staging a coup? Nice picture and pretty subtle. I had to look for the chickens.

Good picture, but I don't see "country" in it. You could have shot this in the city just as well.
