Authority in Chess
by setecha

Comment:
Nice idea. You might have put the figures closest at hand a bit more to the side. And adding some more (yes, you'd need another set of figures) would have made the idea of a corridor leading to the king&queen even stronger. Nice idea though, how two figures can dominate a whole game.

This one would have worked better if there was a guard standing there. You know, like in Baywatch. The crop works fine for me. Perhaps some more saturation.

Matriarch

By chosing to capture her from below you wanted to show her dominant position. That's good. I think if the light came from below, too, that would have emphasized this impression.

This picture shows but the persons' backs. You might have tried catching some more faces. This is where people have to pay taxes, right? How about making them tax a camera?

I'd not have cropped the top of his head and the left of the flag. The picture might use some more colour, too.
You might have made the officer show his mark, kinda like in the movies. "LAPD Ma'am, we need to have a look into your trunk."

What would my authority say to one more beer for me?
by Arnarp

Comment:
Yeah, this is funny. I guess that's your wife in the background? I like how you made her look as if she was your bad conscience. However the long exposure caused some heavy blur on you/your male model. The scenery isn't too interesting I must admit. There are too many details in the background which take the eye's attraction from the main subject. A pub would have been nicer as location. And that torchlight on the right hasn't got anything to do in there. It doesn't add to the picture.

This is a nice way to present authority and how to bypass it.
The shadows would have been better if they were behind the plastic, thus invisible.

The authority on Graffitti as an art form
by kiwinick

Comment:
Huh? Sorry, but what does that title mean? And, except for the word authority in the title, I can't see what this picture has to do with it.
I'd have put that guy either on the right side of the graffiti or made him turn around. He's facing the left side of the picture, the graffitti is in his back. The eye is led away from it!

Nice shadows. I wonder what this picture would look like if all of the hands were on it, and without the nose.

The Ruler Of All

Lighting and contrast! The single parts of the clock blend too much with the background.
