Hehehe. A very cute, almost surreal image. Kinda wish the donkey (if that's what it is) on the right had his head a tad higher, but what can ya do. 7.

Great title - makes what would otherwise be an interesting but possibly uninspiring shot into a nice little piece of social commentary. In technical terms, I might recommend cropping off the black bar at the very top.

I really enjoy your treatment of this tender moment. An excellent, understated capture. 8.

Silhouettes In Rock

This is a solid image. However, I think the colours are a bit oversaturated, and, while I know you're trying to get as much of the cool reflection involved as possible, I think it would be served well by cropping off about an inch at the bottom.

I like what your going for - emotive. I also like the way the window is framed by the plant. However, as it stands this image is a bit flat. In future, make sure it's closer to 640 pixels on its longest side.

Also, you should try playing around with curves/contrast to give it a little punch. If you're stuck without proper image editing software (as I am), download the GIMP. It's a great program and free.

Terrific image. This guy is obviously a real character, and you succeed admirably in telling his tale. Like the central composition but wish the writing didn't protrude from his right ear (on the viewer's left). 8

Starry Starry Night

I like this - very nice exposure of the night sky. Great catch of the shooting star. On the down side, I think this could be improved by cropping out the town at the foot of the mountain. The blown out lights distract from the central impact of the shot.

The Old Mission

Love the warm colours and their contrast with the blue sky. Seems to be some haloing where (I'm assuming) you selected and darkened the sky. Oh, and the border is a bit off-putting. These minor issues aside this is an effective image.

Hehehe... amusing title, and nicely composed. Seems a little blown out in parts, but that can be hard to avoid in this type of shot.

"Sometimes the Best Cowboys... Ain't Cowboys at All"

Cute Girl and well lit. Entertaining title. The pose is a little cliche however, and I find the neatimage/airbrushing to be slightly heavy-handed. I wish you'vd left some of the detail in. This is particularly evident around the bottom of her chin and her nose.
