Nice minimalism.

The Golden Years

Interesting colours. Almost seems like a painterly effect applied to the image. But overall it just seems a little cluttered to me, and I don't like how her eyes are obscured by the reflection in her glasses.

Sculpting in Sand
by GeneralE

Comment:
The composition is a bit off. Those kids either seem to be in the way, or are not there enough... I like the sculpture though - that's a work of art. And you chose the right lighting to show off all its angles.

Spirit of the Wild

Comment:
Beautiful cat. Maybe a square crop would have done away with that empty blackness on the left and emphasised those remarkable eyes more. Still, a nice shot.

Mount Shuksan

Comment:
This is a very beautiful scene. Something about the composition doesn't feel balanced enough to me, and maybe the peaks of the mountain aren't quite sharp enough. There is a lot of detail lost in those dark tones, yet somehow I like the mood it creates.

Memories

This image disturbs me. Maybe it's just the juxtaposition of teddy bears and graves... Still, I find what you did with the lighting and the use of negative space very interesting. Nice work.

Tender Heart

Maybe it's just the mood I'm in tonight, but I keep seeing b+w photos that I wish were in colour because they'd make the subject seem so much more alive and vibrant. Kids are great models - I'd prefer to see them in a more colourful lively scene, than this one which is more sterile and artsy (although well taken and processed).

Where's my dinner
by Crafty

Comment:
Nicely taken. Although the B+W emphasises the strong shape of the bird, I also feel it drains a bit of the life out of the creature - I'd like to have seen what it looks like in colour.

Cafe No More
by SoulMan1978

Comment:
You did an excellent job of controlling the tone in this b&w image, but I don't know if the monochrome really helps it. It sterilizes the unclean building and graffiti too much, and so I think the building loses a bit of its impact as a run-down relic. Well taken though.

I love finely detailed silhouettes like this. Nice composition and colour palette.
