In the Shallows

A beautiful shape and lovely colors. The ripples in the bird's shadow are especially beautiful and if you had been able to have more of it in the frame it would be even better. Personally I'd prefer a little less extra space and a less square image.

The water droplets lend a lot of action to the scene. The splayed feathers make a really nice, clean silhouette.

I like the concept and the crisp silhouettes and coloring. The diagonal arrangement of the three birds fills out the frame well. Due to the motion of the birds, their shapes are a little confusing. The halos around the birds and the branches are a little distracting.

The lighting on the lines in the pavement is excellent. The image would be improved if the pedestrian didn't look like he had one leg and didn't overlap with the bollard, but you can't always pick your poses.

A simple concept but well thought out and executed. Create use of background lighting rather than shooting directly into the light source to create the silhouette. The angle and cropping lend tension to the scene and work very well with the concept.

Nice use of a large enough depth of field to give a clean outline to the silhouette.

This is an excellent concept and I like that both the model and the umbrella give clean silhouettes. I like the use of both the umbrella and the vignette to frame the model's head. As a minor criticism, having the model's left hand (holding the large umbrella) held close to her body spoils the shape of her silhouette a little bit.

This is a fantastic location with lots of beautiful lines and the high contrast makes very good use of it. Some of your highlights are a little blown out (e.g. the boat's crossbeams and at the very top of the image) and spoils the sharp lines a little bit. I also think you could have kept a little less of the image on the bottom.

This is a great concept with nice lighting and beautiful lines. The model is well placed so the curved lines of the tunnel to lead the eye into the distance. Her shadow makes great shapes on the pavement. The only thing I don't like is that the pose makes her feet look a little odd, but that's a minor nit-pick.

The colors are beautiful, and the golden border around the strong silhouette at the focal point works well.
