Taurus: Green with Envy

Comment:
Interesting viewpoint and unusual composition. Not keen on the blurry effect or the green tone of the lighting.

Cancer Charm

Comment:
A little too low-key for me. I like the idea of placing the subject in the corner and including a lot of negative space but I find that the subject is too near to the edges of the frame - feels a bit tight to me.

The Aquarium Water Boy With A Water Ho´s

I don't know if there's some additional message here, perhaps related to the use of rather than in the title but if so, I'm missing it.
I assume the link to challenge here is that this boy swims underwater and that this is is air tank? Not sure it's a strong link to the challenge myself but it's certainly an interpretation.
Interesting use of harsh lighting and black and white treatment - shadows are quite interesting.

Gemini twins bicker in the house of Aquarius

I think the concept is better than the execution in this one - though I do like the eye contact with one bird and also the motion blur in the ings. The crop feels a little too tight top and bottom, particularly at the bottom. Whilst I sometimes like the inclusion of background to provide environment and also the off-centred composition, I'm in two minds about it here - I wonder if this image would work best as a close up study of the two birds?

Fire Sign

Interesting use of light and colour. The composition, with the four triangles of blackness at each corner of the frame, doesn't work well for me.

A Square Jaw

Beautiful. Subtle, enigmatic, well composed low-key portrait.

Fantasia

Comment:
Beautifully done - I love the excess of light at the brush tip and the composition of the brush and swirl of light is excellent.

This is really really well done - my only negative would be that it looks like his feet have been chopped off - would have been good to include feet shapes! This image is a lot of fun!

The effect of cold on spider webs

Sorry, I was sure I commented on this while the challenge was running... evidently not!
I think this is a beautiful image - the sharp crystals against the soft globes of frozen dew and the silver against the terracotta background work very well for me.
Lovely!
