What a gorgeous baby, man someone has some good genes in their family!!!!

I would say from looking at it, that the jacket adn the hat are the only thing in focus, the face is baby soft and if you can do this with the jacket and hat, the whole shot will mesh. Just gotta love those chubby cheeks, treasure every moment.

Well, wow, I am not sure what to say. For me personally, it is a little fussy. Now being a tree it can not exactly have its branches grown artistically. But maybe if you had choosen one or two branches to focus on the eye wouldnt be searching for a point to rest. I have many many shots of shooting up trees just like this one.

Now that is one soft looking dog. Gorgeous looking. He looks like he would carry an egg in his mouth and never break it. I am partial to pets portraits and I think this is lovely. Sharpend just right, you get a soft silky warmth just from looking at him becuase the fur is rich in colour and has depth. It is easy to shoot a pet shot, but harder to get any emotion from a picture and just not say oh cute. There seems to be wisdom in those years. Great capture indeed.

Ha Ha, I just read that nobody can juggle any more than 12 items a phsyicall improbability. SO your shot is DNMshot. hehehe Teasing.

WOW, you even have the shadow of the fruits and veg on your arm. How amazing can you get. Exactly what part am I meant to comment on here, it is brilliant. Well set up, the colours are so crisp and clean. The shadows are to die for, your expression is pricelss. Love the colour that you have on your jeans, the hat and t shirt match well.

You did an awesome job dude, kudos to you in buckets!!!!! Well done.

I had to come back and study some more on this shot, which is a good thing! For me, there seems to be something just a little wrong with it and I am not sure I can put my finger on it. I think the left hand side is a lot more bright and the guitar is blown out somewhat. The handle (have no idea what it is called sorry) is alot lighter than the other side. Maybe a little darkning wouldnt go amiss. I like her expression on the left hand side, the right hand side seems a little sad, maybe if she had had her eyes downcast as the other shot she wouldnt look like she was going to cry. I relaly like the fact that they are not the same sie, really makes you look at it. The right hand side is full of rich colours and they are deep more so than the left. Overall it is a great story board and think it works well.

I like it, but at the time, the blueness of it seems to overwhelm it. For me, maybe if the snowpeaks where a little less blue and a lot more white it would for me look amazing. I think it looks odd becuase our eyes are not used to seeing that scene in blue. We are used to the white tips and snow etc. I have never commented on a shot with writing in it, so I will just give you my gut reaction (sorry in advanced). Even though the mountains are huge and domineering, the text almost could be a little less thick? Does tht make sense, the text sems to over power the background. Did you try it with teh paragraph centered. SO they weren't like in block form, sort of more free flowing if it is centered. Again, sorry if all that came out wrong.

YOu know, I have looked at this one now for a while. I really like it and I am not sure why. It may be to do with the over all scence, his skin seems soft to the touch. The eyes look kind. I really like the sidewalk and the darkness adn the little bright in the middle, that reeks of a special touch. I liek the overall softness of it, any harsher and it would just be any old picture. I would say the only thing is his shirt. It makes my eyes wizzy when I look at it too long, a zigzag pattern. But honestly I dont know what to say, as I like it, but I can not tell you it is one thing.

Mocking Bird

I like the tree branches starkness against the softness of the bird. The blue sky is unbelivably vivid. Maybe just a touch of dodging and burning on the bird would give it a little more contrast against the branches and also bring out the soft whites of the breast. I am not even sure if it is possible to get the bird any sharper as the branches woud then be over sharpned. YOu have captured a very peacefull shot here, well done

Well, seeing as you have done something that I don't know how to do, it looks like a fabulous job. You have managed to keep the red bright as a button. I almost feel though if you are goign to go this way with the balck and white, maybe a little burning may be in order, just to make a good contrast? I like how they are all leading you but again, maybe just the one post box would have seemed less cluttered and would have made the picture more spunky. I think you have done a great job on teh delesctive colour thing and you should write a tutorial so I know how to do it too!!! Well done.

A very lovely job on the HDR, you have brought out some amazingly warm colours with the browns. The sharpness to me is just right, it is very crisp and clean. The lines are stark and well done. This almost could pass as an 18th century painting, the same colours and subject matters. I can understand you use of the title and it is very well choosen. I have no tips or tricks to give you as I think this is just perfect as it is and would have been proud to have shot this myself.
