Portrait of a Cow

I really like this cow. He has an emotive expression. I do wish you had cropped out the crooked horizon line, helping the eye to be focused on the subject. I do like the blur of the barbed wire in the front and back nice use of DOF. I also like the 3 blurred cows on the right. pulls your eye in a diagonal way.

"Nevermore"

I like the risque composition of this shot, obviously deliberate. Background certainly adds a degree of ominous-ness (i know not a word) to this already dark and brooding creature. Your rendering captures the darkness of the crow and his reputation for being a kind of 'bad guy'.
I also like the texture on his beak and light in his eye. By the way how can you tell the male from female crow?

greetings from the CC, well, hmm you certainly 'found' a face and made it look real with the cloth, the technical problems are the white areas are overexposed, and it is not sharp. However I am sure that these are intentional and I think they actually serve to enhance your shot. Great title, suits this woman well.
Not the kind of shot that would do well on dpc, but not the less a creative and well done interpretation of the challenge topic.

Mother Nature's Anger

greetings from the CC, this shot certainly has a artsy feel, would like to see it in B &W , it also reminds my of munsch's SCREAM. I like the backlighting and use of diagonal composition of the leaf, also has nice textures and details, lots of elements to hold interest. well done, my biggest criticism is I find the color of the leaf distracting from the rest of the image. I think in BW it would be more serious and eerie withstronger impact.

greetings from the CC,
My criticism would be of the border I find it distracting to the image. I also think a slightly tighter crop on the top may have helped to focus the eye a bit more to the 'face'. Nice use of diagonal line.
Would be curious how it would look on black background to make a more dramatic feel.
just my thoughts
