A really good portrait! Excellent control of lighting, really nice details in the face and hair, and wonderful interpretation of the challenge.

Natural Elegance

I quite liked this image and gave it a 7 during voting. I thought the glow created by the leaves really worked well. Yes, it is not a prototypical macro (especially for DPC) but it is really well composed - especially as the background dark areas frame the leaves so nicely.

Very cool stuff - excellent use of distortion of the light using the vase.

R For Rainbow

For me, the black and white portions of the image really seem to bring this one down a bit. They seems so grey and drab. I realize that this is probably what you are going for, but the rainbow is not bright enough to conpensate. I think this image really needs an adjustment of the levels.

I hope you don't mind but I actually went in and looked at the histogram of this image. The image is whoafully underexposed. By just moving in the whites, the image really pops a lot more...

Cast of Colors

Hi Yellow! Nice creative photo. Great job of making a rainbow out of such attractive and interesting characters. There is something about this image that is sooooo close to working great. But there is is just ever so slightly not quite on the money. I think it is the lighting. It seems that BIV side of the rainbow needs a bit more light to compensate for the darkness of the colors themselves as compared to the ROY side.

An Illusory Hope

An excellent image in so many ways - well composed and balanced. The layers of water, grasses, hills and clouds really provides nice depth to the image. The cropping to have the rainbow disappear in the upper right grounds the image very well. I like how we can barely see the blue, indigo and violet.

Excellent and subtle use of refraction to give the rainbow. i sure hope others see it as clearly.

Pot of Gold at the End of the Rainbow

Comment:
I like the use of candy to make the rainbow. The image is pretty well composed - maybe placing the pot a bit more to the right may help with the balance of the image. The thing that bothers me a bit is the harsh lighting - the harsh light on the candy seem to wash it out too much

I like how the guy is looking out from behind the umbrella. The colors from his sweater and umbrella really stand out against the grey background.

That is one great view! I love the double rainbow framing the sign. A really good job capturing the lovely clouds.
