What eyes! The dialated pupils make this image really unique. Exposure perfect. Deoth of field perfect. Not too sure it needs the border - but that's a very minor point! Overall - a real "wow"!

Great crisp whites, strong blacks - and with a great tonal range in between. What else can you expect from a black and white image? This studio shot shows great creativity and imagination. Expect to finish high!

Nicely composed, exposed. The high-key effect makes the little green monster almost attractive.

Exceptional capture of the motion. The horse's feet and the wheel PERFECT! Exposure appears right on. It would be a bit more dynamic if there was less space behind the rider's back - and more space in from of the horse. The horizontal dashes right at the jocky's eye level detract just a bit. But having said all that - it's a great image that should finish high.

Straight forward - nice placement of the apple.

Specks and the Universe II

The mysteriousness of the image - due to the underexposure - makes you study it. Unfortunately, there not much going on in the bottom half of the frame.

I doubt if anyone questions whether this is something new you've never shot before.

The colors of this image are superb - nice pastels. But, there's not much else there for me. Feels like the song, "It that all there is, my friend?"

Great composition coupled with super lighting make this image a true winner. The textures in the bark and feathers are great as well - with the small patches of moss/lichen adding some additional impact. Finally the model has a nice look of "curiousity." Well done indeed.
