Ha haaaaaaaaa! Nicely done - how did you map that pattern to the ele so well? I'm really impressed! It's surreal and it incorporates animals in a cosy home setting... all Larson standards!

Time to go home

Beautiful lighting! The poses too are just magical. I hate to be so stereotypical but I do think the composition would be stronger in this image if the children were near the left hand side of the frame facing towards the empty expanse shown in the right of it.

Wow! This is amazing! The lack of clutter in the background, the wonderful detail of that flimsy grass and the even mass of background orange all serve so well to emphasise the solidity of the elephant and focus the attention on the man hanging off the tusk! Fantastic!

Shaken, not Stirred

He he he! Of course, the positioning of that glass is just inspired, especially with it's triangular shape! And I like the way that you've retained just the merest hint of detail in the silhouetted body showing the hands leading the eye to the... glass.

Awaiting His Return

Absolutely fantastic use of light - the subtle halos around her face, particularly along her forehead, nose and eye, are just stunning. Lovely detail/ light on the flower and her hand - that had to be a tough exposure to get right. And lovely composition filling the right hand side with the woman, such a strong and solid presence, and contrasting that with the light, fragile flower and light-filled window. And those window frames really add something to the composition too. This is just fabulous!

Zen! So subtle, so simple and what an absolutely fantastic use of scale/ negative space.

This works really well - I can absolutely see it in an advertisment for cool people! I like the way the roof "sails" retain some colour and detail reflecting the sky but that the people, tables, posts and plants are full silhouettes.

The Silent Stand

Wow! That's pretty! The lace of the umbrella works so beautifully with the sunset to create a silhouette with sufficient detail and beauty to hold the interest. I'm not sure I like the heaviness of the tree top at the top right hand corner, especially as it's not really anchored by a tree trunk. It's kind of a dark splodge just hanging there. I wonder if moving a few steps left or right or just framing slighly differently would create a stronger composition?

Jester with the bedouins

Compression artifacts seem a little severe. This is a fun shot - I like the way the background palms almost create a semi-circular arena around the jester. The shape of his body in motion, isolated in the air, works well.
