vibrant blue. the slight tilt distracts me, as well as the leaves along the sidewalk.

color cast is too much for me. detracts from an otherwise fine image.

not sure I like the treatment. toning is OK, it's the stark contrast.

What's Up Father & Son

What a fantastic image! Full of wonderful emotion. You can feel the bond between father and son in this capture. Shame that it ended up in the wrong challenge. My thoughts are with you and your family in this difficult time.

looks a little crooked (tilted to the right). Or it could be my head!

A little small, could've used the entire 640 pixels (at 72-90 dpi). A nice capture, although the branch or tree in the bottom distracts. A graduated ND filter would have also helped balance out the exposure of the sky with the foreground elements.

Waterlogged

intended composition is sound. However, the DOF isn't right. It's hard to see at this size, but it looks like the only point of focus is the very near end of the log. You needed to stop the aperture way down, and get the focus point correct so that the log and the bluff in the background are sufficiently in focus as to not detract from the composition. A tripod would be an absolute must, as your shutter speed in that light at the small aperture would likely be on the order of seconds. Also, remote shutter release and mirror lock-up (if available on your camera) are also needed.
