Nice.. very Queen Amidala.

You've really managed to capture the satin look of the costume well.

A beautiful and whimsical silhouette. Nicely done. Jealous that you're in Hawaii too.

Paris, la ville des lumières

I'm not sure I like the very strong red/pinks in the sky here, or the wide presentation, but it's a pretty good photo otherwise.

This is one of those photos that I think the photographer loves more than the viewer. One of the hardest things to do is to make something *you* like, into something everyone else will like. I struggle with that all the time myself.

For me, this is a very uinteresting photo. It's not a subject that pulls me in, it's not a composition that makes me say, "wow, that's different", etc. Of course, I don't know the reason why you think it's interesting, but it just doesn't have the appeal that is needed for people that *don't* know.

For my tastes, this is too much in the wide-angle. The focus needs to be more on the subjects of your title, and minimizing the harsh lights.

Classic and nicely done mountain landscape. Gradient on the sky is a little over-done

This Little Piggy....

The grain isn't necessarily a detraction, but it would have worked a little better if the focus was just a *little* sharper. very cute and wrinkly feet.

Interesting.. looks more like an illustration than a photo. Nice use of light.
