The Terrarium

Very nice indeed .. it looks like divers in murky, green water trying to swim towards the light - freedom lies behind it .. I also like what looks like a bullet hole in the middle of the tank .. they are under attack! All around a compelling story to be told here.

In the thumb I thought it was just an all black photo - and then what a lovely surprise .. can't really tell the gender of the person which adds another layer (pun intended) of mystery to this shot. The mesh is great .. I love the darkness and the drama it adds. I really like the areas you picked to lighten. Nicely done!

Fascinating shot .. I keep thinking I will see eyes somewhere as it is shaped liked a persons head (to me and I have a strange imagination) The leaves remind me of hair hanging down over the eye (that I don't see) The lighting is surreal .. indeed like the reflection of rippling water. Great work!

You are one of my heroes and I don't know you from a hole in the wall but ppl who rescue these little precious beasties play such an important role in making this world better - thank you.

Now about your photo .. what a lovely job - as others have said, she looks like she is either inside something or behind an old window .. I love how you kept her face clear of the payer, esp the beautiful catch light in her eyes. Hope to see more :)

Brings to mind an environmental warning against pollutants which can be so beautiful ( as are the colors in your photo ) but deadly. You gave him a proper send off and made a plea for cleaning up toxic waste .. very well done.

Sheer creative brilliance/madness (madness as applies to the photo, not you) .. Quirky and perfect - I would love to be able to do this type of work to the high degree you do.

Ohh I really agree with you ... sometimes people don't know where to draw the line and the simplicity of the original photo is gone - in this case you improved on it by being so light handed with your treatment and used an overlay that added to the delicacy of such a beautiful photo - your daughter is just precious - I love her expression and how she is holding on to her dear cat.

Vintage Ride

Like the grainy sky - interesting choice of color too - I see a lot of vintage cars where I live but I never photograph them because I don't know what to do with the shots afterwards as I am not really a vintage car lover - I might give it a try now that I see what you are doing .. never thought of making the environment the car is in match the era of the car ... thanks for a great idea :)

Headlights - I love shots of headlights from vintage cars .. you did a great job of making it look like an old photo without losing any of the sparkle of the chrome. Like the way you muted the red and how you kept it all crisp - would like to know what you did to this.

Father and Son Seperated

What a moving shot .. I really like the son's expression in the bottom - is that him as well on the cliff looking down? The face of the father wears an expression that could be interpreted in many ways - regret, remorse, reflective - very well done.
