Hey, very nice! Isn't it interesting how details meld together, like the reflections, which look perfectly natural? I like how your sky isn't perfectly black. It's easier to get things to mesh when it is, so I'm impressed.

Thanks for the mention in your comments. I'm not sure there's any "getting better," though - it's just a matter of trying until you get something good! :)

WOW. I can't come up with a better description for this shot's impact on me. :) Possible contender for Best of 2008!

Now That's Smokin' HOT!

It's an interesting image, Max. I think maybe the ice and the cool blue color took away from the concept of "hot," though.

I like it, and got the connection to "cold" immediately. Your puns are very amusing, and I like "C'est la vie" vs. "C'est le morte" in your comments. :)

My only suggestion on the picture itself would be to crop off some stuff on the right so the turtle's centered. I usually prefer subjects off-center, but here the centered bit would be the shell, with interesting parts poking off into other areas.

It's not for them. Its mine.

I can't believe the score (and I usually think scores are about right). I think this is gorgeous.
