Nice shot but with her moving it blurrs her and makes the shot OOF. I love the reflection of the piano keys against the piano but again with the blurry from the girl is just to distracting. Good luck and keep up the good work in 2005.

A beautiful costal shot but the contrast off the rock face is very hard to look at because of the brightness. If I stand back and look its a very nice photo and lots of detail. Well done and keep up the good work in 2005. <7>

Nice shot but very blurry and off balanced. Perhaps a different angle would have made for a more inspirational shot. Best of luck and keep up the good work in 2005.

A touching photo but it lacks clarity and there seems to be a lot of noise in the sky. Perhaps its the camera and I would have scored it a little higher with an ISO 50 to get rid of the noise. Very touching. Well done and keep up the good work in 2005.

Nice shot. A shot that makes you ponder what the hell a rock statue is looking upward for. lol It has a mindless gaze which allows the viewer to sit there and think and I feel would make for a nice gallery piece. Well done and keep up the good work in 2005. <9>

Ok the only way for me to get rid of this photo is to vote on it even tho it's making me sick to look at it. So... from the corner of my eye it has good color and clarity and great composition altho the subject is not for the faint hearted. I am not fussy on the chosen DOF as te bakground is a little OOF. Well done and keep up the good work in 2005.

It looks like Dorothy andTtoto from that movie with the witches. Nicely done with excellent clarity and desaturation. The title doesn't do it justice tho. Well done and keep up the good work in 2005.

Interesting but the lack of color is very disturbing. Perhaps a selective desaturation would have been the better choice. Because of the high contrast it also look a little blurry. Good luck and keep up the good work in 2005.
