Nightscape

The nighttime exposure is done very well, but I don't care for the darker areas at the right side or the bottom of the frame. They make the whole thing feel a bit out of balance to me.

My bucolic village

Oh, my! Lovely shot! There seems to be a bit of haze in the air that keeps the saturated colors of the foliage from being all it could be, but your composition is beautiful, and I love the inclusion of the foreground.

Gorgeous. Great foreground detail captured by your wide-angle lens, and the colors are lovely. I predict a ribbon in your future, or very close. :)

Lovely village and beautiful reflections captured in the water. I held my hand over the picture to cover the foliage on the left completely, and I think perhaps the shot is stronger that way. It's that awkward time of spring right now where you have lots of beautiful color, but also bare branches on trees that aren't in bloom yet. The empty branches add a feeling of isolation to an otherwise warm and cheerful image.

Very nice composition. I like the flowers as an anchor, and then the path that leads your eye through the image.

Very creative angle, gorgeous sky and good use of a wide-angle lens. I'm bothered a bit by the shadow on the building in the lower part of the image, but I know if you cropped it, it would ruin the composition and mean cutting out part of the cross. Perhaps taking it at a slightly different time of day would have helped? Still, nicely done, nonetheless.

This is very pretty. I'd love to see those tiny lights just a *touch* sharper, but your exposure is beautiful. The sky is a gorgeous blend of blues.

This appears to be a neon sign? Perhaps if the composition wasn't so centered it might be more visually appealing. As it is, I really prefer the shots in the challenge that used a light source from behind to create a silhouette of an object, rather than just seeing the outline created by the sign.

Monumental

Great use of the tiny figures to add perspective to this monument. I especially love the sharpness of the image, and the dynamic composition really adds strength to the shot. Nice work. 9

Beautiful. Spectacular clouds, perfect composition, and I love the sharpness of the silhouetted ground and figure. The hair blowing in the wind really gives it that little extra something. 9
