I just wanted to sum up my comments on your week of tree shots with one comment on this image. I love them all. You have shown very consistent work with all the tree images, which shows your level of skill with the camera. I like that the colors are even, you have used just the right exposure to make the tree trunks slightly darker and nicely saturated while getting that nice bright white background. Also, I like that the amount of blur is slight; that there is still an amount of realism in the photo's.

Way to go! I like it! I think it looks really great shot to fill the frame! Thanks for studying this further!

Come on in, the water's fine

THis could have really benefited from having a person in the photo. Even if someone was standing at the edge of the pool faking it it would have really added a whole dimension to the picture.

In Cold Blood

Here's some things that stand out about this picture. You got a bowl of ice water on a doily with some orange stuff in it. It doesn't make a very compelling subject. Throw in a bloody hand or some fingers at least! The white balance is off quite a bit as everything has a blueish tint to it. Otherwise creative with the title, but a little too macabre for my taste.

There is no real need for a white border here as the entire picture is white space. It takes away from the picture because it is not bright white like the snow. I still give this a 6.

Ice Field

This would be great with a little more sky. It would be neat if you could stitch two shots together to create a bigger scene! But this is very awesome in itself.

This is very interesting and unique as a photo. I think I can see some ice in the water in the background but I am not too sure. Bringing that out would help to convey the feeling of being cold. Right now I think the message conveyed is more Wet than Cold. I know there is some great thought put into this. I wish I knew what the number in his hand was about...

I rated this one kind of low and wanted to provide some feedback as to why. I thought this photo was kind of flat. The red should really pop but instead it's lacking in luminosity. Also the background of ice is pretty grey. As for subject matter, I think it is a flower on ice, which projects the fact that is is cold.

Wonderfully bright colors! Excellent sharpness and focus on the yarn.

Your gallery is going to be so colorful after 52 weeks. I wondered if you were going to continue using the fill the frame technique to fill all 52 shots with brilliant colors. Here you kind of left that behind. It would have been cool to spread out the yarn to fill in the white space a little. You still could have kept the balls of yarn oof in the background.
