Polerised design

Simple and minimalist, the contrails add to the image as the pole by itself would not have much interest, guess I would have liked to see the lines more parallel.

I like the idea, but the overall set is too dark. I think the groom would feel left out. :-p

Shallow depth of batting

Comment by bassbone:
I think this is a well composed and delivered shot. I think where this one misses out a bit in the deep DOF is no subject really close to us. The cricket players, the trees and the balloon are all far away from the camera. Altering the composition by having something like a cricket bat on the ground close to the camera in the foreground, the players behind, and the balloow way out (all in sharp focus) would probably have garnered you a ribbon.

Old Rose

Comment by bassbone:
i think you did a very nice job with the low key lighting of this rose. I am not a fan of the choice of crop and composition. Centering the rose gives this a static feel and the long horizontal makes the image look squished. Adding more negative space above and below the image would help this. Also, placing the rose off center (following more the rule of thirds) might give this one a bit more impact.

Mr Duckles' moment in the maglite

Comment by bassbone:
Well done image - nice crisp details, good control of light. The 'maglite' being visible actually detracts a bit from the image IMO.

Shooting low light and moving subjects is tough. The right pane is a bit too dark. The others are a bit OOF.
