Illusion

Neat illusion, love the cool tones too, lighting is great. Two nitpicks - as this was advanced rules I personally would have cloned out the lines where the paper met to give it more fluidity, and I have no idea what's with the line at the front, not fond of it. Overall it's a great shot!

Aerial Assault

Thanks for all the comments, even the ones about the crop near the feet! It actually wasnt a crop, the only crop I did was a little off the top and right side. Out of all the shots I took that day, this one was the more 'action' type. I actually thought having him tip-toe on the border looked kinda interesting/cute, but I guess not. :(

Menage Flambé

Exposure is good with the flame not blown out. Doesnt really have much 'wow' factor, though. It could be because it's a little too centered maybe - it's just kinda there.

City at Night

It's a good skyline, nice colors, fairly sharp, although I find the yellow lights in the water a little distracting.

A Quiet Seaside Town

I like this - nice grainy b&w with good contrasts, good leading lines, and has a great atmosphere wih it. Not the usual DPC image, but I hope it does well.

Secret Shipment

This comes across as fairly dark on my monitor. I can see the whole ship, it just blends into the dark sea very well. I mostly see the white shoreline and the part of the ship.

Moon Light

Comment:
The moon is a little bright but not overly so behind the mass of tree branches. The placement of the moon is good. The branches are not very sharp, and the sky is fairly noisy. Not a bad image, just nothing 'wow' about it either.

Moonlight Mosque

Comment:
I'm not sure if this is IR or just post processing. The top of the mosque looks good, the color seems to fit and contrasts nicely against the blue. Also fairly sharp. Unfortunately it's the lower part of the photograph I'm not too fond of. The tree on the left looks like it's been badly masked with the pink at the top and the white through the branches. The middle tree has an unnatural-looking hue, and the pink in the sky surrounding that tree also seems quite unnatural. It may have appeal to some people, but it just looks odd to me, sorry.

They Roost By Night

The clouds are good, the power lines have good leading lines, but the picture is badly out of focus.

I'm comin' in!

Great shot! A little soft in places, but the head is very clear, and the wings show motion. Ideally it would have been better with a little more room above the wings, but I know how that's not always possible as they zoom around. Could possibly do with some levels play as it seems a little dark, but not overly so.
