Popcorn Stand at Sunrise

The colors and detail in this shot are fantastic. I like the contrasts in color and temperature here as well as the interplay between light and shadows. Perhaps if the shot was taken from a more unconventional angle (ie. ground level) it may have added more interest to the shot? The concrete rafters look like they could have carried the theme you were going for if shot from down low. Just my opinion, nice shot nonetheless

I like the lighting setup you've chosen to work with here. It gives a very raw and untainted feel to the shot. It also works well to create a focal point in the photo. The subject is nicely composed and the color saturation in the painting is good.... 7

Very pretty shot. Love the DOF to isolate the subject and create depth with the web. The flower itself seems a tad overexposed/oversaturated. Maybe exposure tweaks in the RAW stage or layer masks in p-shop would help? Just my opinion, nice shot nonetheless

Nice shot. Great use of DOF to create dimension in this photo. And the creative composition creates a very modern and artistic feel. I could see this hanging in the living room a contemporary home.... 7

Nice shot. Your use of selective desaturation answers the challenge well. Perhaps a shallower DOF would have helped to really isolate the center flower?

American Flag

Nice contrasts of color here. The creative composition works well. IMHO the shot could have had the same effect with less negative space. Perhaps even if the flag filled most of the frame it would have had the same impact? I wonder if taking this from almost underneath the flag itself with the overcast sky above as a backdrop may have made an interesting shot? Just my opinion, nice shot nonetheless

Interesting piece of art. I really like the reflections you've captured here. The lights themselves look nicely exposed with the shutter speed you used leaving nothing overexposed.
