I'm not much of a cat person, but that is one cute kittie. I like the framing by the bed and the B&W.

week 03 - Sunset from my Balcony
by boyd2000

Comment:
I love the intensity of the sky, it's just on fire. I didn't really notice the horizon being off and usually that stands out for me so it's not a biggie, IMO. I wonder how this would look without the bit of blue on top, if that were cropped it would keep the focus on that glorious sky.

The Blues

That's quite the find! Good choice to use the selective desat to bring the focus right to the misplaced pants.

Posing

This is just fantastic; the bright bird against the low key, blurry background works great. Good lines throughout, from the horizon to the angle created by posts and bird.

Week 2

This is a well done portrait and the eyes didn't stand out as having any issues. What caught my attention was the darker areas around the eyes caused by the hat or lighting perhaps, and it's not really that bad at all. For eyes, I take a white brush in softlight, reduce % way down and brighten them up with several passes. I enhance (or bring back) color by brightening with a the same white brush (only if needed) and then using a colored brush in color mode. I'll then take a black brush in soft light and then enhance the black around them just a bit.

This reminds me of what my youngest would do, and I'd have to literally drag her away. The triangle formed by the two children and man make for great composition and keeps my eye right where it should be. I actually like the processing; I think more contrast or lighter would give it a different mood that wouldn't work so well.

Perhaps it's not a macro, but it's a fantastic closeup image. I like the shallow DOF, but wonder how it would look if at least part of the limes were in focus. I also like the fact that you have limes what appears to be a mortar and pestle.

The backlighting/sidelighting is perfect for this shot.

Food 03 - Lychee salad

This pulls me right into it, and it's certainly due to the lighting. If your goal was to make this appetizing, you've certainly met it.
