It appears that the photo is tilted to the left. That is a common mistake for new photographers but it can easily be fixed by using the rotate function available in all but the most basic photo editing software programs. Besides that, I really like the lighting. It brings out a natural and beautiful skin tone. The shading from the cheekbones is very well captured.

And in case you were sitting there shaking your head... yes, I am joking about the tilt. It's an interesting perspective and it works well.

I love the way the iris looks in B&W. It's like sun rays out of the pupil.

Niagara Falls at Night

The falls are spectacular. I am not a big fan of the skyline however. It doesn't really tie in with the photo for me.

I would have personally preferred if the two adult horses were separated so that they don't blend into each other. Besides that, the color, lighting, and level of soft focus are spot on.

Great expression. It looks like he just took a dive for a salmon but it got away.

The expression on the third deer's face is priceless. You have grasped the secret of nature photography. Capture the unique.

Anything But Chardonnay

First title to actually make me laugh. I love the movie 'Sideways'. As far as the photo goes, beautifully laid out, good lighting, and nice use of focus. If If I may be a bit picky, nothing matches. Sebastiani Cabernet bottle, concord grapes, and a Caymus Vineyard glass. But what the hell. Variety is the spice of life.

A Bit Cranky

If that's cranky, I'd hate to see angry. Beautiful shot, by the way. I love the eyes.

I think this could have worked better with more cropping at the bottom.
