very nice. i think the birds add a LOT to this photo, as it wouldn't be quite as expressive without them.

Pyramid Power

creative perspective, as i\'m guessing this is truly just a rectangular building of some sort (or am i wrong?). despite the wonderful perspective involved, it just doesn\'t really catch my eye though. unfortunately, i think it\'s a result of the bland sky. i guess with these winter months, gray skies are about all many people have to work with anymore.

very beautiful lighting and approach to the shot, although i'm not quite sure i like the border.

The Big Wheel

i really like the idea, but wonder if a perspective without the trees would have been possible. also, unless buses (or trailers?) are common, it might\'ve been nice to reshoot it without the taillights of the tall vehicle streaking through the middle, imho.

looks so fake - not sure why.. i think it\'s the textures. makes it hard to believe that this is more photograph than photoshop, but i\'ll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Block Shapes

not sure if it's my monitor, as i've just updated my display drivers and things are showing up slightly different from before.. but there seems to be a green tone/cast in the background.. some more light or white balance might have helped there. well balanced composition. for some reason i don't really like the purple block - perhaps just a matter of personal taste.

in light of the last challenge - some soft focus here might have helped.. a little too much detail in the skin for me.

in my opinion, it would be slightly stronger if they were more level, and if the shadow underneath the bottom one were visible. also, i don't think the black border works too well with the subject, but who knows.

lovely image and use of soft focus. the reflections are beautiful and i like how buoys in the back seem slightly more covered by the fog (?). the triangle formed is interesting. i want to say a tighter crop might have been nice.. but on the other hand, the feeling of emptiness is good for this photo.. nice work.

Brrrrrr......which way is south?
