Beach Meltdown

Clever. I love the way you made the crayons into little people! The dof seems just a bit too shallow, since you can clearly see a line of sand that is perfectly focused. I also might like to have seen this a bit more brightly lit, since the idea is that the orange guy melted in the sun. Extra points for creativity and setup!

I can tell that you were using a shallow dof here, but the removal of the color makes it all sort of fuzzy and hard to figure out. The butterfly too seems overprocessed and unnaturally colored.

Hmm.. I hadn't thought about offsetting the main subject from the color. Interesting. This little guy/gal doesn't look so happy about the setup though!

Love the simplicity of this shot. The colors are a bit dull for me, but still a great shot.

That car seems so out of place in this shot. What a busy street you've captured here, and a clever title with the way you've chosen to color this one. Nicely done.

Great use of lines and the vanishing point. I love how the buildings have such repitition in them, and that crooked line of parked cars! Well done.

I don't know that I would have chosen black and white for this shot (then again, I didn't see a color version). With all of the lines in the background it almost looks more like scaffolding at first glance rather than an old building. Still, its a fun shot of life in the city. Well captured.

Love the well defined thirds in this shot and the warm tones. The lights seem a bit bright and fuzzy for me (except the one that is burnt out of course). Well done!
