Open...or Shut

Open, shut, or bright orange? Interesting idea, could probably be made seriously kreepy with less even lighting and better color balance (or B&W)

Love the concept, composition, and lighting, but that brigth green reflection in the lower right just ruins it for me - 6

Capture the light

And you sure did! Only complaint is the high contrast frame, it takes your attention from the image. I would much prefer a one color (or two colors of more similar brightness) frame. Otherwise a fabulous photo, makes me wish I were skiing - 9

Interesting abstract idea, but the image noise becomes a problem in such a simple composition. Big smooth surfaces are better either really smooth or really textured

Wow, those colors are right out of Lord Of The Rings! Of course in the movies, that desaturated look was driving me nuts, but here it looks great. The only improvement I can suggest is that just like you have two tones in the sky, it might be better to have two subtly different tones in the ground too. But that luminous fence is just fabulous - 9

A Louisiana Swamp

Marvellous sense of depth, and great usage of duotone. Only improvement I can think of would be to straighten the image (maybe it is level, but something about the alignment of the trees and their reflections makes it feel tilted down on the right) 8

The green is an interesting idea, but the noise/compression artifacts kinda kills it

A Different Taste

Wow, what an imaginative shot! The hard to identify liquid and background, the splash *not* being contained in the frame, the bizarre border, yet it all comes together in an image that somehow just works! - 9

Just magical! Only nits to pick are the slight lack of sharpness around the eyes and that nipple that's barely in the frame on the right (I'd have cloned it out). Otherwise a fantastic photo - 8
