"Terror as Ferris Wheel reaches Mach 2"

I have seen this kind of shot many times before, and I think you really added something unique to it with the angle here. I also like how you cropped in tight and touched the wheel to the edge of the frame. Very cool shot. 8 from me.

Nice job panning and keeping his face so sharp. A cool motion shot with a less common subject (usually I see cars and bikes, etc). The title goes with it perfectly. I love the little guy's expression. The whites on the hat are the only thing I would change about this image, and that is a minor nitpick. Very nice shot. 8 from me.

I think a little more contrast in the midtones would really make this pop. Very nice detail and sharpness.

This looks either out of focus or like the shutter speed was too low and you got some bad camera shake. I do like the crop, how her hair really frames her face. The lighting is nice and soft and directional, too. Too bad about the blur. 5 form me.

Very professional lighting and post-processing. I love the DOF. I want to like the composition but the hand coming in from below seems too unconnected to her body. Almost disembodied.

I personally would consider cropping off the top on this image, right into her head (probably just leaving the bangs and the very edge of the hairline. It has the benefits of eliminating the distracting bright windows at the top, as well as the pigtail rubber bands. It also moves her beautiful eyes up higher in the frame. Your light source seems either a little too small or too far away. The shadows under her nose and chin are too harsh and well-defined. THe light is posistioned very well, though, coming in from the side and a little above. Very nice skin tones and wonderful blue eyes. What a cutie!

Nice exposure and a cool scene with the footprints. I think maybe I would have framed it so that the figure and the island did not overlap. Although all the detail is definitely there, the head and shoulders intersecting with the island make the person a little harder to see and figure out. THe colors in your sky and ocean are very nice.

The figure really makes this image for me. It gives a real sense of the size and vastness of the scene. I think the reds are a little overdone here.

Corner Pocket

ALthough maybe impossible to pull off in such a dark rom, I think really deep DOF could have been great for this image, so that the pool ball closest to the camera was in focus, too. I like the composition and the corner pocket in the corner of the frame. Nice shot.

Very pretty. I wish there was a catchlight in the shadowed eye. I think that would help keep that eye from looking so flat and dead. Other than that small nitpick, this is very nicely lit.
