Mark, I totally agree about the blown highlights, it really works well here. The exposure is so perfect on your wife. Did you use a reflector to get some fill light on her? The lighting is just perfect. The only thing I might have done differently is crop out the oof couch and the corner of the table on the left side and put a dark border around to keep the eyes in. Great job and one of my favorites of the side challenge thus far.

I'm really loving your street shots Ryan. The compositions are all excellent and this one is no exception. The harsh lighting works so well here. Keep em coming!

8 - Sidelong Glance

What a wonderful shot! I love the since of motion, like she through her head in that direction intent on seing something just out of the frame. It is so hard to get a since of motion and sharpness at the same time, but you have done it. Great photo.

I really like this composition. I love the diagonal dark and white that seperates the grafitee and creates such great tension. The b/w treatment works well for me because it has such rich tones. Very well done.

Day 8 - Morning Glory Bud

I like the delicate lighting, but the composition doesn't do much for me. Maybe if the morning glory bud was at more of an angle. Very nice background but I agree with aguapreta, perhaps darkening it would help?

Day 8 - Who's got mail?

Very interesting composition! I also like the shapes and the leading lines throughout. What is the plastic looking thing on the backside of the post? A rain gauge? It is the only shape I don't really like as it seems out of place.

Morning in the Marsh

What a lovely composition! I love the bright "overblown" sky that really lifts the mood of the photo. I think including the bird watchers was a good idea too. 9

Lovely pastel composition in the tradition of great impressionistic paintings. Very well done. I love the layering which gives great debth to the photo. Great control of the sky too. Maybe adding a foreground object would have increased the debth even more....8

Autumn Approaches

I love this composition, the leading lines are just wonderful and the water is so "impressionstic". I don't even mind the mixing of warm and cool tones as it works well here. I know including a color from within the photo for the border is a great way to tie it all together but I think I would have prefered a simple black border, that is a personal preference and doesn't effect my voting. 8

Impressed by Fruits

Lovely study in impressionism. The few blown spots on the fruit are a little distracting considering the "painting" effect, but the overall lighting isn't bad. 8
