Sky Falling

Nice reflection -- the trees are virtually perfect. I find myself wishing that the branch and rocks and dead leaves weren't in the picture, but short of you trudging into the water and taking them out, I don't know what you could do about it. Along those lines, I'd also love to see this same shot taken on a slightly less cloudy day to get some more of that blue in the reflection -- the cloudy portions let me see through the water just a bit too easily. But, since you can't control the weather... :-)

Bird on Stacked Coins (Attempt No. 3,493,394)
by paully2k1

Comment:
I think this is a really clever idea -- would have been "mundane" right side up (although still tricky) -- but upside down adds a great deal to it. I would have cropped it/shot it so the bird hung perfectly straight down the column of coins instead of just to the left. The focus seems a little soft on the bird and coins -- but it also looks like maybe your camera isn't quite so high end, so maybe that's the problem there. A light shining on the front of the coins to bring out detail would be nice. The colors of the picture seem to be a little green -- but that's assuming the wall at the back is white. Finally, a different background besides the wall and table would bring this up another notch and change it from isn't this cool what I balanced, to isn't this a great shot...

Upside Down # One
by Dangerous_blues

Comment:
Dig the shot, but wish it was lit on the opposite side -- that way the apples wouldn't be in the shadow of the fruit bowl. Lighting is also causing there to be kind of a lot of noise in the shot and with all those flat white surfaces, it's really noticeable. Nicely composed.

Vertical is beautiful!

This looks more on its side than upside down. (If those are trees at the right that are growing toward the left, anyway.) I like the abstractedness, but I think it would be a lot better if the 'noise' could be less noticeable. Since the picture is already blurry, runing it through despeckle half a dozen times (that seems such a strange thing to suggest) might help smooth things out a bit.

When our World turns

This seems a little dark. The overcast sky (I assume it was overcast, anyway)does make you focus on the greens. My eye is continually drawn to the red object, but I can't quite make it out. I'm breaking one of my own self-imposed rules (suggesting a 'much' different shot) but I think I might have shot this on a sunnier day with a bright blue sky.

Yes, i stole Peewee's bike!!

The angles on the barn in this one bother me. I'm not sure why. Perhaps just because it's upside down. Maybe a different location with a tighter shot of the bike? Other than that, the colors seems a tiny bit dark. Easy to adjust in your editing program, I'm sure.

Coins in the Sky

I might have bumped this the tiniest bit darker on the shadows -- but that is just a personal taste thing. Love the way the coins look like stars.

Spider Squirrel

Comment:
Clever. A faster shutter speed would have let you freeze the squirrel's motion. The colors here also seem a little flat. It may be that this is entirely true to the location, but I think a littel tweak in a PS like program, would help make some of the color pop. (Or, if not, maybe think black and white instead...)

Soda Water Ad: Cool Clean Refreshment!

Nice shot. I think I would have pulled back the tiniest bit to include the top of the bottle instead of barely cropping it out of the shot. I also think an orange slice might have been more appropriate than lemon since it's orange flavored seltzer -- it also would have echoed the color of the bottle nicely. The only other thing is that little ripped out portion of the label.
