Very cool feel, similar to an artist who's name escapes me. Only thing that bother's me is the noise.

Nice picture - Almost has the look of an educational school book from back in the 70's. Like the colours and tones.

Hello from the Critique Club!

I do not check scores or other comments prior to writing up my critique.

I knew instantly which challenge this was shot for, so obviously it fits the challenge well and also stands on its own quite well.

I like the dynamics of the black and white, however the hot spot on the side of the horse draws my attention. However, the contrast does add to the rest of the shot. Since it was advanced editing, I think you could have balanced out the best of both worlds a little better and reduced that hot spot some. It's not too bad, but it's the very edge of the area that distracts.

The setting is nice and I like the movement of the mane. I think the mane is my favorite part of the shot. I would have liked a more creative angle for this photo. Perhaps down a little lower? For some reason, the clump of trees in the background tend to steal the thunder from the subject of the horse. I think a lower angle might have helped alleviate that problem.

Overall, not a bad shot. I would have liked to have seen the original as this does appear to have had quite a bit of PP. I would have scored it a high five in the challenge.

Hope this is helpful!

Nice detail, not sure about the crop though.... I think you may also be able to pull more attention towards the bee by slightly toning down the intense colour of the flower.

Cute shot. Sorry, that doesn't tell you much does it? The use of light and the effect of the overexposure - all very nicely answering to the challenge :)- are good but it doesn't make that extra shout to me. It's a nice portrait but I would think there's room for a fair bit of ambition in this challenge.

Not sure what this image conveys, it also looks like it may be a bit blurred (double image affect seen in some areas).
