This is my very favorite of all your portfolio images. I love the composition, lighting and sepia tones. Plus Starbucks is one of my favorite morning places... well other than Big City.... :) :) Very very nice :)

I like this image. Nice leading line out to the horizon..Too bad there were no puffy clouds out that morning :)

This one is interesting but I like the other shot better. This one has a little bit too shallow DOF for my liking and I am not a great fan of the tilted horizon line... but a good idea :) You did capture some really nice light on the water. :)

What a beautiful child. I love the vivid colors and how she's framed by the mobile above her head. Great perspective.

Reflection

Comment by Photonurd:
This is a neat shot and I like the reflection on the tuning knob. The smile is fantastic and the more I look at it, the more I think you're crop worked well! You don't neccessarily need to see his whole face, the smile says it all. It would've been nice to use the guitar strings and neck as leading line too. Great shot! 8o)

Comment by Photonurd:
You seem to have a keen interest in unique perspective and depth of field. Continue experiementing with that and take pictures of anything and everything that catches your eye. Then post em here and most of the time you'll get wonderful feed back. Looking great though! Welcome! 8o)

Comment by Photonurd:
The natural light is quite lovely! I must say I'm not a fan of large out-of-focus elements in the foreground, but perhaps that's just me—the image is still great regardles. Beautiful child! 8o)

Really nice capture. Minor nits: I'd level the horizon (been around DPC too long) and dodge the guy's face a tiny bit so we have a little definition, but that's just me.

Great shot! A little more depth in the clouds (perhaps a slight dodge and burn) would make this really shine!
