Up on the roof

I like this nature shot. It is refreshingly different from the plethora of nature photos on this forum. Some might complain about a little bit of fuzzines but I say, "Who cares?" The viewpoint works and the starkness enhances the otherwise homeliness of these birds (are they grackles? it's hard to tell from this angle).

Beautiful, moody lighting. Near perfect composition. My only complaint is the chair on the far right of the frame.

His Viewpoint

I love this for a few reasons. It's funny without being condescending to the little person. I don't know if it was intended but his small bum, protruding a bit is a direct diagonal to her bum. This harmony is strengthened by his obvious relish of her assets. :D My only suggestion is crop a bit off the top to eliminate the row of paintings and make her appear even taller in the frame, emphasizing his smallness.

This a nice macro portrait of an eye but I don't see the unusual viewpoint. It is a pretty direct viewpoint, actually. I suppose one could argue that you were unusually close to the subject but that would be stretching the notion, in my opinion.

Nice strong planes and lines. It's a bit lacking in contrast. I wonder if it would have worked better in color against a blue sky? I like the tiny sun rays peeping over the rim of the round thing.

Mountain Dew... Good to the Last Drop

Interesting idea. It might have been more successful with an infinite focus so the mouth isn't blurred out so much. The printing on the bottle has a way of drawing the eye.

Birds Don´t Ask For Freedom They Fly

I understand the idea behind the tilted format (bird's freewheeling point of view) but I'm not sure it's working with so much going on at the bottom. Perhaps if it were cropped to exclude some of the bottom portion? If you look at only the bottom half of the photo it is a very visually cluttered shot. The top half (from just above the light fixture) works a little better. I'm not a fan of tilted shots so I'm probably a bit biased.

Interesting idea. You have a good start with the executiion but the banana is too out of focus. It should stand out in sharper contrast to the line of light.

Nice arrangement but the lighting is a bit flat. There is a good start with the darking the upper part of the background but it could have been a titch darker to add a little more drama to the mundane subject.

Banana & Co

I think I got what you did here but it just is too unappealing with the wierdly transparent textured background and the flat lighting. The colors all look muddy and the fruit unappetizing.
