Sunday Breakfast in McAmerica

On the forum you commented that most of yours were B&W and the first one I look at is colored and I love it. It's so typical and IT"S IN COLOR, BEAUTIFUL in color. Did you try it in B&W. Bet it was nothing.
I do really like this and it is so well done, beautiful focus and not too sharp. Handing out the bag made this for you. Otherwise it was any drive through any where. Everyone recognized that "M". First time submission - ain't half bad. I'd a given it an 8 myself if I'd been on line back then. Do some more in color, you do well with it.

I Teach; Therefore I Am

I love the border and jacket. Now to look at the photo. Let's see. Needs to be a little lighter and sharper. Good subject and set up. Couldn't get too much lighter or would blow out the board, I realize. You don't look much interested in the students - bad day? At least your expression says so. Decent photo worth a 6, because it is better than average. PTL

Now where did I leave that 1:20 ruler!?

Hard to get it lighter without blowing out your drawing. And that is my only draw back to this photo. Othre wise it is very good. May cropped off the bottom , from the desk top down and added some more at the top? Just a thought. Good pic though. Worth a 7 with me. PTL

Graze

I'm not too sure about this one. At first glance it looks like a totally out of focus cow. At second look it looks like a reflection in the water without the cow to make the reflection. And I'm sure it's somewhere in between these two. Which ever it is not appealling to me. Just looks too much out of focus, except for the grass. I'd have to give it a 3.

Prairie Sunset

That is a beautiful sky. What are the plants? they are so unique. almost look like large wheat stalks. They make the picture. You usually get trees, but these are so different. Good composition and well executed. A 9 any time. PTL

Rocky Creek

Comment:
This is beautiful and so well in focus. I love how you have cropped it making a frame for the creek. I'll take your word that there is a creek down there. I would love to see this in color also - there greenery coming thru the snow. I'd give this an 8 easily. PTL

This appears hazy to me. I'd like a little more contrast. I realize you are the expert photographer, but I know what I like to see. To me it's cropped a little to tightly. To me this is a 6. PTL

Lifeguard on Duty

Precious little girls. You should be proud. I love the spitting of the water. Obviously her sister doesn't trust her, cause she has her eyes closed so as to not get any in them. Just a little dark. Good focus and natural color. I'm assuming the red around the hair is red shampoo for babies. Good shot - worthy of a 7. PTL

If you build like you take photos I'll hire you to renovate my home. This is a fantastic photo. At first I thought it was too busy, but the longer I look, the more I like it. Very clear and sharp focus, colors are great. Good composition with good execution. I can't give it less than an 8. Good job. PTL
