Week 3: Canon G2 CRW3290 r720 Edited.jpg

I really like the perspective you chose on this, as well as your processing. The texture on the fence is really good, and the colours much stronger. The leading lines are very effective too.

Not a fan of the border though... though thats entirely a personal thing (and judging from my own portfolio, I havent been consistent with abandoning the borders myself).

Nice rustic feel to this. I like the high contrast B&W processing, but feel that a little noise reduction in the sky wouldnt hurt. Overall a nice photo though.

Your editing brought the colour screaming back to life... I like your choice of crop too. You seemed to capture them without them knowing it, and it gives a nice, innocent feel to the photo.

Week 4: Someone To Watch Over Me

I gotta tell you, my girlfriend absolutely loves this shot. Thanks for putting a smile on her face.

Any chance you could choose a different crop to include more of the white horses face (if you did crop it out to begin with that is), or to crop out the white horse altogether?

A nice simple shot, but the texture makes is look awesome. As mentioned, you found art in the most unlikely place.

Holy smokes Leo, best photo of 2008.

Well deserved, and nice shot. Especially considering that that wasnt an HDR.

Congrats.

Week 3: Sunset on the Bay

I love the colour in this shot, makes for a nice relaxing mood overall. I agree with nshapiro in that you should crop out the bottom, leaving the reeds, but eliminating the pool of water in the foreground. That would also put your horizon on the 1/3 line, giving a nice pleasing composition.

Great photo.

For me, its a toss up between this edit, and the third edit (the yellow/orange one). Followed closely by the fourth edit, and first edit.

Yeah... I think I had the same dilemma you had, I like all the edits. The photo overall has a nice grungy texture to it, which I really like.

I like your crop, and your editing in this photo. The crop gets rid of the distractions at the top, and the contrast you added give a nice texture to the water. This would also look really good in black and white IMO.

I like the edits you did, and it did bring out more detail in the building. I do notice a slight "halo" around the roof line, but only if I look hard for it, or when I compare it to the original. Nice photo :D
