Interlude in the Woods

They must've been running a special on borders that day. Wow.

Anyway, I like the shot. The two cranes are a good capper to the image, and it almost seems as though some of the cypress knees and branches are talking to each other, too. All in all, I think this is a good shot, but that border blows my mind (and really, I normally don't mind borders).

Geez Dan, is that lens cover thing ever gonna get old? Let's hope not!

The way the logs leave the frame is jarring to me. I think this subject has wonderful potential, although I honestly have neither the expertise or the gall to tell you how to achieve that potential. Perhaps another angle, a different time of day, I don't know...maybe just going back and spending some more time there.

Shadows on the viewdeck

I would like to see this shot more focused on the shadows, perhaps a different angle so that we lose the blown-out sky. I think the texture and lines have great potential, but they get a bit lost in this shot.

Still Life in Wood #1 Desk & Vase

I find the rug distracting here...I think it is just too bright when compared to the wood. I like the shapes and composition, however. It seems that the wood is just a bit dark.

Maybe this child will be happy with this photo in 20 years or so...I know my own baby pictures make me laugh, mostly because I think my head has never changed size...I was born with a big head, apparently I'll die with a big head.

I'm looking through this portfolio...interesting and intriguing stuff. So, is this your artwork, a friend's, an enemy's...tell us about it.

Good use of black and white and an astounding amount of detail and texture. This shot has a spooky feel to me, but I like it and I hope it does well.

This is a good shot - let it speak for itself! The title is patronizing, doubly so considering that the challenge already directs the viewer to look at textures. I do think that you did a good job with your main objective in taking a shot that shows lots of good texture...so for that, good on you!

Looks like a good choice for a profile photo...too bad you have a lot of good choices to make your good choice from.
