These shots never cease to impress me. They always leave me envying the photographer and the skills protrayed by the work. 10

I like the composition of this shot but am not entirely sure I like the blue hue on the normally pure white bird. I can understand that the reflections may have caused it but some adjustments might bring it back a bit.

Perfect choice of title, model, composition, lighting, soft feel, everything. My attention is immediately drawn to her captivating eyes in this pose. Some may comment on the foreground being distracting (as I have seen in past challenges) but to me it adds to the shot. 10

Great wedding shot. You have really captured the emotion of the day in this shot. Good choice of processing and colour selection. The flowers in her left hand appear to be slightly out of focus (motion blur). 8

Now that is macro. Real close. Well I think it is. Is it the centre of a flower?

Great processing. Not sure that I like the grainy feel to this, but that is my opinion only. I would like to see how this shot started out to see just how much work was involved in this finished product. Nice work

Spire

Comment:
IMO this is a slightly boring shot. Freespace yes, but the main subject in the shot have very little appeal. It also appears that processing has caused some slight halo effects around the topmost part of the spire.

Great shot. Great lighting. Great subject. 10. I would have like to see this shot with equal lighting on both sides of the model, ie the neck area and ears. Still 10 for me. Well done

Great character. Nice clarity and crispness in all the detail of his weathered skin. The only thing I can think of to comment on for possible improvements would be to have the main subject further to the left, with some space in the direction that he is looking, and perhaps trying to lessen the highlights that have appeared to have blown out on his shoulders. Nice portrait though and I can not score it any lower than I think it deserves because of what I feel could make it better. 9

I like your shot. Great colouring and lighting. 8. It does however, make me wonder what he is working on. Another angle to this shot, maybe from an elevated level would also have an impact, giving the viewer more of a picture of what he is working at.
