I like the lighting (particularly the tree in the background). The composition is tight for my taste, I would've left more of the track underneath in the shot. Nice shot.

Nice composition and exposure. I like that the colors are more subdued (rather than vibrant).

Nice idea and capture. I'd have put some smoke fluid in to get some puffs from the engine though = )

New Day

I'm surprised this rated so low. I like the focus = P It seems to get sharp right at and below the sunset -- almost looks as though a "lens baby" was used. Nice shot.

Bountiful Harvest

Nice. The soft textures and color add to the fall atmosphere here. A shallower depth of field would work well here to de-emphasize the sharp and somewhat busy background elements.

Tied The Knot ?

Good use of the striped light (blinds?) to add interest. The diagonals strengthen the composition. Might suggest cropping tighter on the left and top to block out the highlight on the orange balloon but not really a problem imho.

Celebrate all 16 years of youth and punk rock

Treatment fits well with a punk rock theme, though the focus could be a little stronger on the foreground subject.

Celebrating a Goal - Jumping for Joy

Stronger focus on the person celebrating might help this imho.

Blue Angels

I think this would work better with a more dynamic background. If there were any clouds in the sky or ground objects that could have been included, having these in the composition would add interest. The haloing separates the jets, but the colors still blend together too much. The yellow looks like there's a bit too much magenta.
