The Burlington Hotel

This is a different perspective, but the strong shadow and window glare combine to force this into a medium shot without lots of appeal. The lines of the tree & roof edge are interesting.

Balloon Glow

Night shots like this are very difficult to get the lighting right on - not to mention getting a sharp focus. To me, the colors of the main two balloons are a bit muddied and yellowish. It really isn't until you get to the Scandia balloon that you get some vivid colors. I bet this was an amazing sight in person.

Not sure the leashes work for me, glowing in the sun. I do like the cow watching the dogs.

Fa-la-la!

You've done a great job with the purple color (which, as I've discovered, is difficult to shoot), but very little of the shot is in focus, and the blurry area overwhelms the in-focus parts.

Capture the Moment
by JaimeVinas

Comment:
I started out really liking this shot - nice golden tones, interesting pose and action capture. But, with a longer look, found just too many distracting things to it. The flying ring on a string, the strand of hair in front of her face, her open mouth, closed eyes, arms down at her side, massive hair behind her with only empty space of well-defined tendrils coming up from her head, spots of bluish in the background. That, combined with the overall blur to the shot really works against it, IMO.

Nice lighting and contrast. Not sure what meaning you're trying to convey, and the background (looks like dirt) distracts from the leaves because it has lots of spots that may be worth looking at, but are just part of a almost-too-busy general background.

Wear Blue: Run to Remember

Nice clear shot. Lots of dark in the picture, and I don't have the context to understand the title.

Abstract Landing

Comment:
Tough shot - the light does a great job back-lighting the butterfly's wing, but blows out the flower. Nice use of DOF, but the butterfly nor the flower is in focus - looks like the focus was on the stem below the flower.

Prisoner of Love

Evidently the prison has been freed - no longer behind bars or wearing clothes. A rather interesting sculpture. You picture does a nice job of contrasting the silver with a darker background.

Shining Spring

I like the feel and colors in this, but feel it is too overexposed. As a result, this mutes the colors, and renders almost the top 1/3 of the shot very very light. Maybe this was your intent, but IMO it makes a picture that has great potential just so-so.
