The Bridge
by Greetmir

Comment:
Greetmir - The issue I see with this one is the unrealistic colors - especially the almost neon green grass.

In addition, while I can see the bridge, there are so many other things in view - the leaning trees, the branches, etc. that the subject of the photo seems to get lost.

Marbles

Here are a few thoughts about your image (by the way I gave it a 5 during the challenge - Not a bad image at all, just not a great image that says wow or tells me a story).

First of all, the image is rather static - the main subject is in the center of the image.

Second, the lighting is not very dramatic - the background is dark and the marbles seem to get lost in it. I would imagine this would have worked much better to show the colors on the marbles (mostly dark blues and reds, etc) on a bright background with bright lighting.

I do think you did a nice job of conveying shallow DOF - the focus on the marble in front is pretty good, but the darkness makes it hard to tell on quick glance

i like the cropping and perspective a lot - but I would recommend using noise reduction to fix the flaws in the sky

great capture of the waves. This could be improved by reducing the noise in the sky

Like Summer on Ice

I really like the perspective of this image - seeing the ice in the foreground and the mountains illuminated in the background, but the green clouds and red sky are a little disconcerting - 5

There is nothing particularly exciting about this image - good color and lighting, but not a great deal to draw me in.

Window to the Soul

I like the concept, but I would have liked the eyes a little more sharp with better lighting on them, especially since that is the subject of this image.
