love the face and the exposure is pretty good - i just would have liked the eyes and nose a little sharper in focus - it currently seems a little soft on the face.

nice crop on this 'rather' mundane image - it works and adds just the right tension by not showing the entire bench. 8

Faceoff Between Venus and the Glowing Sliver

Comment:
Really neat image - but it is centered along the horizon and the two objects are way outside of the thirds so it really does not follow the rule of thirds as I understand them.

i like the processing on this image - the extreme contrast really adds to this image 9

When You're Alone (It Ain't Easy)

Comment:
The halo around the tree and horizon is a significant issue with this photo - and the swirls on the image really distract. I like the theme and the title a lot - wish the image was a little clearer and had less technical issues.

Southern Az Ranch

There are so many (almost too many) cool things in this image! The mountains, the fence, the trees, the ranch sign all are great topics for photos - but it seems that having them all in the same photo is a little bit of overload.

The image is pretty sharp in the foreground, but the mountains in the back are a little soft and the colors are not very vibrant - especially the sky being a little too pale blue/grey.

Another issue I noticed is the horizon seems askew by a few degrees - even though the ranch sign is parallel with the horizon. I wish I had such great subjects to use in photos!

wonderful rich colors and tones - awesome location. Is that your house or the servants quarters?

Ocean Restaurant

That is a great exposure of the waves and the pier behind, but the sky is adding very little to the photo - reshooting so that the pier and horizon are at the upper third and the surf (interesting textures and colors) could be emphasized a whole bunch more - 6

Everlasting Covenant

love the lighting on this entry - just wish the barn wasn't blown out. the grasses in front are perfectly exposed and the sky and rainbows are really well composed. I just wish you would have placed the horizon a little higher in the frame so it is more at the third rather than down about 20%. I realize you were trying to put the barn at the intersection of the thirds, but the horizon is such a large component of the lines in this image - I think it could have been a little higher. Still - I like it a lot 7

Bridaveil Falls

i love yosemite - it is hard to take a bad picture there! Nice placement of the falls and the edge of the rock outcropping in the other third. I would have liked a little more movement of the color to brighten up the pines - these darn things always seem beautiful in real life but are so hard to capture with a camera.
