The American River

Seems kind of unlikely for interior light to be striking the window just like that :-) Is this a case of taking a window to a location and shooting through it? Full marks for endeavour, then.

Cat outside

Despite my initial reaction to the toning here - green! - I rather like this shot, and it's growing on me. I'm sure it will be far too weird for the majority on the site, however.

Through An Old Window

Like this. I do wish you'd perhaps used more processing to bring the balance of exposure of the frame and the sky closer together - you might at least have been eble to keep more definition in the silhouette of the tree.

Watching for the Easter Bunny

Another one! This really isn't what the challenge asked for ... had you taken it from the other side of the window, maybe ... Having said that, there are elements to the shot that I like, especially the contrast of the dress(?) and the plainness of the curtains. The figure seems under-exposed however, as is not unusual against a white-ish background, and the lack of any visible face perhaps takes some character out of the shot.

View from platform B

Comment:
Lovely work, especially pleasing in its balance of colours and tones - complementary blue and orange are almost always effective. The definition in the steelwork creeping out from the silhouette is tremendous. I sense, beyond anything I could explain exactly, something missing though here - really couldn't say what.

Behind the Veil

great portrait - love the light on the cheek, jaw and eye. obviously the shot is outside the challenge stipulation (you'd have a hard time convincing me that the subject of this shot is the view from a window), but I'd guess anough people will have bashed you for that already. My mind questions the cropping - but my eye finds the compositional balance very effective.

AUCKLAND FROM THE DISTANCE
by slonko

Comment:
I guess other things perhaps ruin the composition, but I'd love to see that sun-burst placed in the middle of that window frame. Good exposure, good hyper-focal distance. The slight sharpening artefacts around the frame are actually quite effective in adding emphasis to the silhouette.

My comment below should say 'only very slightly flawed', instead of being quite so brusque sounding. Lovely shot, this, and deserved a better placing, and certainly a better score.

Storm clouds over Tryfan

Jon, Man: that score would be second best ever on my personal list, and you don't even ribbon for it - unfair, unfair. That blue can only just be around the conrner, surely.

Wow. Crazy, mad, threatening, ominous, and wonderful. I really wish the lines of the whatever-it-is were straight, from a rigidly compositional point of view. entrancing stuff though. Just great.
