Greetings,
Great shot here, I like the lighting and the use of the long shutter to give the soft feel to the water, also great perspective, it looks as if you were almost in the water for the shot. Just one thing is slightly buggin me though, it appears the pic is slanted a bit downhill to the left, it would be an easy crop/rotate in PS to fix too, otherwise an excellent photo!

WOW!!!! Excellent, what else can I say for a subject that lets face it, unless your a chef, its not that exciting, you have made it exciting, vibrant and bold, congrats on a job very well done!!!! Perhaps you should look at marketing this shot in the stock photography market....

Crocus Cumulation

Wow, wonderfull color saturation and tonality, the DOF is a bit soft for my liking and the flower in the front forefront is definitely a distraction, not sure if justs its location, or the location combined with the soft DOF, still a good photo, hope you get a chance to work with these flowers some more as I love the colors!

Wow, looks cold, very cold I like this photo a lot, the only thing that detracts from it just a tiny bit is whatever the heck is immediately behind the tire swing, some sort of rock formation perhaps??? it detracts from the swing standing out which if the "rocks" were removed i think would greatly add to the feeling of cold solitude. Probably an easy clone out in PS too, either way tis still a great evocative photo!

Excellent perspective in this shot, I love it, very unique! DOF could be a little deeper as the front of the couch(?) cushion seems a bit soft, and obviously the lighting needs some work to eliminate the overexposd areas especially the front of that cushion, but still a great idea, I look foward to seeing a reshoot as I think this has a lot of awesome potential!!!

P.S. Just a quick idea, perhaps a conversion to B&W in PS would allow you to dodge/burn those exposure issues away without having to do a reshoot....

WOW!!! Great colors and saturation, especially the greens! I also like the soft look you gace the waterfall, I'm guessing with a slightly long shutter time, my only complaint with thsi phot, and it is a minor one, and very easy to fix as well, is with the angle, it seems to be tilted a bit, a very easy fix in PS, still a wonderfull shot!!

Wow interesting perspective here, it definitely shows the vastness of the farm and the adjacent properties, Just one question, where is the top of that silo like structure in the center left??? or is the angle such that it doesnt show, just curious, keep up the good work!
