moon over Lake Worth beach

the brownish light, the thick reflection from the moon, the wispy grasses in the foreground - all cool elements

Friday Night Lights

the motion of the cars in the race so they are ghostlike and the presence of the fire extinquisher in the field of play to provide both a hazard and a safety measure make for a quirky and cool feel

i see the blur of motion but it really does come across as interesting or appealing to me

Moonlit Night

the choice of longer exposure here in this setting allows for us to see the clouds, but without a specific subject of interest to focus on, it really does not draw us in

an interestng take - the yellowish and red colors really are unsettling - and i imagine this is the intent here -not sure i really like it except for the way the eyes are staring us down

Colored Lights
by Kelli

Comment:
the way the lights seem to meander down the river is a nice effect, but there is so little detail beyond the lights, making it a bit less than ideal - some more light from the sky for us to see the horizon and trees beyhond and some details in the foreground with light painting could have really helped this out

The Light Within

Comment:
a neat idea for a shot - but it appears that there was some camera shake as noticed in the blurry details in the church. The light from inside is a bit too blown, but it is a bit understandable with your goal to show details outside

Fountain Gargoyle
by Purple_Girl

Comment:
the choice of horizontal perspective seems to close the image down a bit - the motion of the water is vertical, and a vertical perspective to show the flow of water may have really helped this shot. Also, the lighting on teh fountain gives the gargoyle a very flat and uninteresting appearance.

Would a different perspective - say from an angle instead of straight ahead - worked a bit better?

the jagged lines of light are a cool effect the first time you see them - but I find that without a stationary or important subject to leverage the implied motion, the shot is lacking a very important component

City Streets

the motion of the ground is actually a bit dizzy-ing in this shot - a good thing....

i just wish that the bike was a bit sharper in focus to contrast the motion around
