Winter Sunset

A very difficult shot done well. I would have waited for the sun to crest the horizon a tad more so it doesnt fill quite as much space with blinding white. Love the star burst and framing of this shot.

The color tones are nice here. You could have lowered the horizon and included the tops of the tree for a better composition.

Very interesting picture, but the subject is not the sky.

Looking thru the eye in Mordor! Its grey and gloomy. I would love to see some deep blues mixed in.

This is very creative and well thought out. The red shorts contrasts against the blue nicely.

I love everything about this one. It looks so cushy! Just like it was mentioned. I can almost smell it too! I bet its a really sweet smell too, just like this print. A definate keeper!

Flower of January

This is a 'paintable' shot! It already looks like the petals have been painted on. A tad bit on the bottom could be trimmed off but I would have left it the way it is. I love the lighting and shape of the flower as well as the greenery giving a diagonal visual line. I like the font used in the text but I would have made it a darker pink and brought it a little closer to the flower. It just feels so far away from it. The colors on the flower are superb!

[Edited to add] Oh, I love how you explain their meanings!

I would not have considered this composition. The red tip attracts your eye and becomes the subject. Just enough of the rose is shown to explain what we are looking at. Contrast is good on all these shots.
I like it.

You have the whole flower in focus on this. Good job! The textures are fantastic. They look so soft to the touch. Compositions is good here on the side like that. Fills the majority of the frame and you can define each petal. I especially like the wavey petal up front.
Great job on this one!

I love the dark background. Lighting is great. DOF is a bit to shallow. I would like to see more of the flower in focus. I agree that there is to much black on this orientation. The composition really demands a landscape layout. I would have also cloned out the 'crimp' on the furthest left petal. A spritz of water would have made it perfect.
