This is a great anti-smoking campaign shot. I like that you have the text slightly angled and the cigarette straight on. The lighting is good but I'm not sure about the focus being soft on the cigarette. It's not too bad and the clarity of the words seems good, but I'm wondering if it would be a little better if the cigarette itself were a little crisper. No matter. I still like the concept a great deal. 8

Colour of Fall

Comment by Dave Gordon:
At a time when the world is flooded with photos of whole forests in fall colors, the detail of a single leaf is a refreshing change - especially when it is this well lit and composed. I think a darker gray in the background would allevieate the amount of blank space at the top left.

Nice approach. Improve the lighting ... the pic is a bit dark, making the color of the filter dull

Very nice - an uncommonly nonsuperficial photo. I wish the level of focus was slightly more to the foreground.

Beautiful leaf shot. The white background makes it jump out. I also think I understand the exposed aspect: the red color is exposed now that the chlorophyll has degraded. I also like that you shot this off center as well. Nicely done.

The composition feels a bit tight since the edges of the leaf are touching the top, left, and bottom edges of the frame...

Great composition and side lighting, that reveals the texture very well.
