Yuck that really is bad weather!!! The little tiny dot of blue sky isn't much of a promise of good weather right? Good.

Snow Damage

Weather damage is also weather for sure. The image appears a little too dark to me. Good idea.

Clever. Is that rain on the window or on your lense?

Nightime Super SNOWBLOB

Interesting idea, somehow this image looks more like a starfield with a sun in the background. How did you take this one?

Pinks, greens, and a splash of blue

Hi. Flowers always make for good photos and in my opinion is a subject that will always score higher than usual if done well, so you were on the right track choosing a flower as your color entry subject. And you have done it well!

Using the sky as a background was a good choice, and as I mentioned in my comment below, the background highlights the red of the rose more intensely. You mention that the rose is pink in your title and description, however I don't see any pink in it, it is red to me, but that might also be my monitor.

Everything is sharp and fully in focus, I don't think blurring the background would have made much of a difference. However, as was commented below, I think some water drops on the flower and leaves might have given this image a little more impact.

All in all, a very good pic with strong and vivid colors, congratulations.

Obscured By Clouds

Wild sky, angry clouds, good shot! I especially like the effect of the layering here, blue sky, clouds, blue sky, clouds. Works well!

Choice shot! The steps work well as leading lines here. Especially as they start at the bottom in full clarity and lead into the mistiness at the top, nice effect.

Wild! A very good capture, well done. The clouds opening up to show the blues sky and sun's ray shining through like a spotlight on the land is amazing.
