American Speedway, American Dream

Lots of unused negative space on the right of the shot. Photos like these really need to have the subject looking INTO the frame, composition doesn't feel at all thought out. Bad skin tone, needs colour balancing caused by the flash catching all the surface blood just under the skin. Eyes don't have a really great expression that makes good gig photos come alive. Why is this photo so small?

Haha, not because you love learning, or want to make the world a better place, or want to reach your potential. Just a flash car. Man, I hate materialism. Anyway, your model needs more light... offboard carefully bounced flash is badly needed here. You don't have great reflections on the car, this needed more thought. Were you trying to light your model with the lights from another car? This hasn't worked, as the light isn't high enough. The sky is very poor, and really makes the shoot look amateur. You needed a little more dof so the background skyline would be in focus. It doesn't look good here. Or far more blurred. The model's clothes don't work well for this concept, not classy or thought out at all. Not a compelling expression either. He almost has a tower growing from his head... I don't feel that you were aware of the composition of how his head blends with the background. A far more inventive shot may have been to bring a very high stepladder so you could get the same shot with the same background but looking down on him.

Needs more colour balancing... I'm not sure the white balance was good here. Lots of empty negative space to the left, not a very convincing composition. Why form a chord with the left hand if the right hand is posing for the camera? A bit of a mixed message there. Nice model, you've not flattered her ankle and you should generally aim not to see the bottom of the feet in a portrait. Have you come across rule of thirds? That will help you. Nice shallow dof, good bokeh.

Don't like the colour balancing... he looks quite ill. I'd have used Photoshop to fix the lazy eye.

Oh that's gorgeous, one of the best photos I've seen in ages! Almost painterly, and very humourous in a good way. Lots of love in this shot. Great textures, good post processing. Tough exposure, handled well. Superb composition. Thanks for brightening my day, in fact I'll keep this favourited so I can look at it when I want a lift!

Wow, until I saw the textures at the bottom of the shot... what a shame.

Nice light mist, some great colours in the sky. Wish there was more detail in the sky though, I'd have liked to see this half a stop to a stop darker. Not sure the background quite works with this lone tree, but maybe I'm too fussy... after all my time as a photographer I'm still searching for the elusive single tree shot that every photographer seems to have!

Stunning, beautiful colours. Either this was taken very early or you were lucky to find such still water.

Oh, that is beautiul, I gave a sigh of appreciation just now when the shot loaded! Absolutely gorgeous. What delicious blues, and I love the crisp silhouette of the tree on the right. Mist is very atmospheric, and contrasts nicely with the sharp detail of the tree. There's something quite poignant about this tree in the middle of water, it works on many levels... life, death, clarity, mystery and I love the haunting stillness.

Rainbow not strong enough to make this shot worth it. Composition not strong. Sky overexposed. Foreground way oversharpened. Nice light and colours though.
