Not really my style of art, but I can respect the skill it took to make this image.

Very dramatic, and what great colors - smooth like butter. I'm feeling like the cropping is a bit tight in the upper left corner, but overall, what a great image!

Very creative! This shot is technically great, and it's great to see selective desat used with style and skill. I bet you'd do well with this on DPC Prints. There's a great feel of balance to this shot.

The b/w treatment adds a really interesting effect to the animal's facial expression. Perfect catch-lights in the eyes as well.

Seems a bit dark, and there's abit of motion blur near the tiger's backside. I'm sure with the darkness it would have been tough to work with a higher shutter speed. Not sure what length lens you used, but there are relatively inexpensive attachments for speedlights that throw their beams a good distance. If used off-camera form a remote, it would have been just what this shot needed. I *do* like your use of space, and you obvioulsy had a solid focus on the eyes, so overall this is a great shot.

Split Bout....the inner struggle

This doesn't have much emotional appeal for me, but it's obvious you're creatiivity is above average and know how to make your gear work for you. I think this would get a higher rating from me if it were set in a boxing ring setting rather than a plain white background. That would probably make your technique more difficult, but would put the emotion back into it. Either way, kudos for an image worth taking a second look at!

WOW!!!! I can't wait to see who did this one and where it was taken... Absolutely goes on my favorites list. I have nothing to critique as I would not change anything. Great dramatic lighting, I love the surreal feel of the image, and what really captures my attention is the way you've isolated the detailed silhouettes of the central trees from the thicher trees to the right.

Creative use of space - I like the tree obscuring the subject. Great natural expression as well. The problem for me is that the highlights in the background compete with the model's face. If you could have taken this image when the sun was less intense, and the histogram more compressed, I think it would have been amazing.

Up and over... and in?

This is a wild scene, and with the expression on the far left player's face you definitely tripped the shutter at exactly the right time. But, I can't help but feel the cropping is too tight at the bottom.

Beutiful image, but it feels like stretching the theme a bit. I'd suggest a bit less sky in this with more foreground to replace it. This would better lead your eye to the subject and remove some distraction.
