Nice isolation of your subject, great DOF.

Gorgeous range of tones throughout the image and good choice for this tree as a subject - the angling and "messy" branches give it character and gives us a good foreground point of interest in a spare and elegant landscape.

Very interesting use of grain to an extreme - at first view I was put off by it, but it's beginning to grow on me. It lends far more drama to the scene, especially to the sky, than probably was in the original capture. The framing is very nice, especially with the relatively empty foreground except for the nun walking toward the viewer. I think we forget sometimes that this is how photos used to look, before we had the ability to make them all smooth and shiny. Nice job.

Wow, I like how the lines in this shot take your eyes up into it on the left (stairs) and then swoops you over and back down on the right, where it then takes you back into it again (tracks). I really like this.

Love the choice of portrait orientation and how you placed it in the frame - very crisp looking shot. I wonder if the shot could be processed to get a bit more contrast in the background and reduce the blown-out bits of the sky. Then again, I don't know if better contrast in the background would help the image - as it is now, the foreground subject just pops out at you in relation to the relatively uniform midtones of the background. Well, it's a thought. :)

Day 8 - The Little Medusa

Her hands are beckoning, like, "come to me, so I can slap you up the side of your head", LOL. The light coming at her from the side adds a dimension of drama to her expression. This is one cool capture.

Day 9 - Maple Leaf

Very nice use of the light and the square crop certainly looks suitable.

You captured a good bit of detail in the mottled patterns of the pear skins - this is the sort of thing that gets missed in color. Like how you arranged the pears.

Wow, what a rich range of tones you have going on here - very cool shot.

I like this - got a lot of textures going on here, and you managed to get quite a bit of detail in that dark wood post. The foreground weeds poking up on the left balances out the subject on the right.
