Just FABULOUS. I am so glad you went with such a bold crop too - it adds so much to this photo. 10

A Tranquil Reflection

Comment:
I love the way the reflection of the clouds makes it seem as it the boats are flying. Has a surrealistic element to it. Very nicely done.

Interesting fellow. The use of on-camera flash really washes out the natural shadows from his face though. Try experimenting with natural lighting instead of using the flash. :)

LOVING the bokeh, only wish the leaves in front were somehow more interesting. 6

This has got to be Lynnesite. What a gift you have for capturing these majestic animals. If I've pegged the photographer wrong, take it as a compliment.

Interesting shot, but the saturation is way to much for me.

Pieces of Me

Comment:
The BG color goes very well with your skin and lip color. The cropping is interesting. Two things nag at me: 1) with the texture of her eye shadow so palpable, I don't like having her skin so airbrushed. My eye is just instantly aware that I'm missing the texture of the skin. 2) The expression is very empty and uninvolved. In any type of portrait, I want to see some type of emotion on the person.

High Contrast B/W

Comment:
Interestingly, before I read your title, my first thought was "it's very gray and could use a boost in contrast." I can see where any more contrast on the center horse might have been over the top, but with advanced editing you could have used a mask. Mostly I see gray.

I really like the composition and the lighting, but no portion of the photo seems to be sharply focused. 5 (Would have been a 7 with sharp focus somewhere)
