This would be an excellent place to make all sorts of studies in light and shadows. The soft colours are beautiful.

What a beautiful place to make images! The colours/textures in the sand are good to look at. The composition is quite good also.

What the image sort of lacks, IMVHO, is drama. It's a beautiful shot of a good looking place, but it's missing a sense of grandeur - this must be a place where things look spectacular on a grand scale, but the picture makes it look sort of small, like a sandbox, not a desert. The landscape orientation would probably help, although it would be fun to figure out how to make a stunning desert image in portrait orientation.

Hope this helps. :)

The dress almost looks like it's hanging in front of you, probably because of the curved wires from the cage, they sort of replicate the dress' straps. Beautiful concept, really well done.

Super-wide for portraiture! Interesting. Makes it look like you're happily stuck in a very deep dungeon.

Strange picture. Where did you get the idea of mixing ink and hairgel? The drop looks almost like it has a little bite taken out of it. I like the detail on the outside of the lily.

The skin is quite beautiful. I like the colours in the jacket and and the matching flower shirt - go great with her skin tone. I like the little touch of blue just peeking in on the hat. The eyes look a bit overdone.

Wow! Double wow! This is just plain good.

Morning Light in the Park

At first glance it looks slightly shaky, and it doesn't have much interest. The light being brighter on the trees in back is interesting, but it doesn't show through enough to "make" the image. The light post in the middle is (sorry) annoying :). There seems to be a house, maybe some people also or a machine of some sort by the lightpost - I don't know.

In other words, IMVHO, it is excellent light to explore further, but as a picture to keep this one doesn't quite make it.

I second Jeffrey's take :)

Beautiful colours, very good selective focus. If anything, IMHO the bud could be placed a bit higher in the frame (or maybe crop the image to a slightly less longer image, cropping about 1/8th off the top.
