Evening in DC

the people, the fountains, the memorial behind are great elements - i just wish the image were brighter as if taken a bit earlier so the city behind was still slightly visible to bring out the details in the Lincoln Memorial behind.

someone was playing with a light pen! a nice sentiment but not remarkably exciting or dramatic

keeping watch

Comment:
nice quiet natural sentiment - the smoothness of the water is a bit hard to pick out on first go - and the choice of composition seems to provide too much extra info - a closer shot on just the ducks and the rocks and the water may have worked better for you and allowed you to go a bit longer on the exposure to make it a bit brighter overall

the half in light/ half in shade image seems to work pretty well - but with all the birds going away from us, the interest and intensity of the shot is diminished.

the streaks of light really give this a fast and furious feel - but it doesn't quite deliver without a main subject to really anchor the shot

Remebering Those Who Fell

Comment:
dramatic feel to the shot - but the lighting seems off - i wonder if a different angle would have allowed the flags to 'show up' a bit more

a timely sentiment - but i am not sure how a long exposure really makes this shot more dramatic....

Comment:
a neat idea for the shot - a minimal image in a minimal challenge - the tilted horizon really throws off the balance of the shot unfortunately...

Mystical Garden

Comment:
the sky looks pretty dramatic - i wish there was more of it in the image rather than the difficult to see bushes and trees on the right

Waterfall

Comment:
a good idea - a homemade waterfall - the white balance kills this shot however, as does the sensor dust
