I like the humor in this photo but find the exposure lacking in that you have blown out highlights as well as lost detail in the shadows. Lighting is way too harsh and I wish that the bacon strip was also in focus.

The Scent of a Woman
by TerryGee

Comment:
Good concept that could have been carried out better. Lighting is too harsh and exposure seems off as you've lost detail in the hand and shoulder. I also find a lack of coherence between the graininess of the image and the refined and delicate features of the woman. More light shed on the glass applicator and maybe doing away with the shadow in the background would have improved the picture IMO. I'm a bit undecided about the blue-green-grey cast but do think it adds a feeling of sensuality

Hard to see the castle, but I like this image anyway. I especially like what you've done with the colors, as it makes it appear surrealistic.

The Sword in the Stone
by moodville

Comment:
Despite the centered subject matter, I like the composition and especially the colored background. I think what's missing is lack of visual detail of the interesting looking sword, which I think should be lit better. Also, more accoutrements of that period of history would also add more interest, such as, a draped robe or shield.

Rosa, rosae...

I love the soft pastels but while I like the backlighting, I find it to be too strong so that the background roses are too washed out and merge and detract from the main rose. I also think some fill light could have been used to illuminate the bottom of the photo more to show the greens of the stems better. Good DOF.

Beautifully laid out platter but I think the contrast could be better. I also find the border does not add anything to the photo

Contrast and focus are poor and I find the composition uninteresting.

Interesting contrast of colors but I think your lighting could be improved so that you don't get that hot spot on the back plate and I also wish the blue was more saturated and green wasn't so dull. The most vivid color is the background and I think it should be the green of the circuit board.

Lovely colors and I like the composition, but I find focus is a bit too soft.

I like the composition very much, but think the focus is a little soft and lighting too harsh. I also wish there was better seperation of the subject and background.
