Hmmm. So much good stuff here. I think I agree about the ghosting of the people. That seems a little odd. Also, I would just soften the areas where the images overlap. I like the birds, but maybe turn them gray, or even white? Also, perhaps add some depth with some grunge or clouds around the upper area, to break up the water. I like it as it is, but these are things that I might try.

I do like the concept-the flow is all wrong-the birds don't need to be in there and can you transition the family more smoothly from sand to surf ? Good to experiment & here is where you can get feedback

Very nice symetry to this photo, and nice greyscale as well.

I know those birds...I think this is great...are you looking for more of a "grunge" look?

I think it's interesting, but the ghosting of the people seems a little strange... Have you tried masking that part out so they're not ghosts? Or did it look more interesting with them as ghosts? (just curious... :)

Between stone and water. A cool effect. What if you had an image of clouds to add to the top, dividing the image into three parts? Keep that lovely sepia.

But you had fun experimenting? I do rather like what you achieved. As the viewer, it works.

Absolutely love the details seen on the dandelion and it really pops off the dark brown wood backdrop. This has an earthy feel to it...a ...a...argh trying to describe what imagery this brings to mind; I think herbs and gathered plants, a earthy feel of being one and connected with nature, the curl of the wood to the left makes me think of a cinnamon stick and that sparks the lovely spicey smell of it's fragence. Hmmm, the power of your image is just the pleasing imagery that it invokes in sight, feel and smell.

Nice work. I like that flower, it would be a great flower to experiment doing abstract with (or, with which to experiment doing abstract, for the purists).
