Bridal Bell

When I first looked at it I thought the focus was horrible then I took a second glance and realized you used a very selective focus on this. I'm actually here wondering if you may have done this in macro.

The one thing I might change on this whole image is the placement of the sliver ribbon it seems to be cutting the bell in half and could easily be corrected.

Over all it is a prety cool photo when you really look at it and think about it. Very nice keepsake too for the bride and groom.

Very pretty, has a relaxing and calming effect. Well done. The focus, dof and colors here are really good. Leaves me wondering what it looks like in color.

It really is well done and there aren't to many changes I would make to it. Actually only thing that really stands out is a few leaves on the bottom right could be spot edited to tone them down a touch they appear over exposed as they are.

Again nicely done and definately meets the challenge.

Your photo is actually to small if you need help with resizing to get it up to the larger size just ask.

Your focus is very soft around the eyes. But still a very cute face.

This is such a nice photo. The sky is simply beautiful the sillioutte is very nice and the detail of it is fantastic. It definately is a beautiful capture of a retired lifestyle.

There is a slight halo though going around the outside of the entire image which was probably caused by editing. Try to watchout for that, cause it really is the only flaw in the entire image.

Personally I do believe it fits the at work challenge cause a man who is retired makes a living doing what he sees fit.

Well done.

Wonderful capture of a stolen base. The image is crisp and clean, focus being good for the obcious distance away you were, and a good dof used. The shutter speed used for this was perfect looks like the motion is stopped rather than having blurry feet.

The baseline pulls the eye into the main subject of the two players, but personally I believe showing more of the baseline and less of the area to the right would have made this an outstanding photo. The only other thing to do that might have made this photo better is cropping closer to the players. loosing part of the dust cloud on the right and then equal amounts from the top and bottom.

Overall this is a really good photo and it definately meets the challenge. Well done.

This is a very good shot. The fog compliments the entire setting very well. There is only one thing that distracts from the entire photo and that what I beleive is sheet music laid out just behind the mic stand in the photo. It is such a very light spot in the entire photo that it pulls your eyes away from the singer and to the big light patch.

Overall it is very appealing and well deserving of the 2nd place. Nicely done and Congrats.

This is a very pretty and crisp photo the focus is very good the dof used is good also. This photo would have done wonderful in a challenge entitled places or hometown something like that but as for the AT WORK challenge it simply doesn't meet the challenge. The rules read...

Challenge: At Work
Details: Photograph a person or group of people doing whatever they do to make their living.

This photo simply doesn't meet that, as pretty as it is, it just doesn't show peopel working.
