I feel like kicking your butt Philip. This could very well have ribboned or at least top 5. However..I believe I would not have to do it as you might be kicking yourself. Fantastic colours and element working so well but this could have been in another class. This photo had your signiture class pp work but I did not think it was yours for obvious reason. I put it down as you having less time to take pictures and being enclosed in the office... :)

Jy weet nie hoe bly ek is toe ek sien dit is jou foto wat Blou gewen het nie. As ek dit nie mis het nie was jy 'n man wat alles wou opgee so ruk terug. Ek weet jy sou nie maar jy was moedeloos. Ons meet nie ons werk aan die Ribbons nie maar dit bly 'n groot beloning en ongeag van die wen of nie, moet jy altyd self tevrede wees met jou fotos.

Fantastiese foto en welverdien. Holland het miskien minder geleenthede as ander plekke soos Ysland maar kyk net die resultaat in die foto van eenvoud. Alles wat 'n foto karakter gee en atmosfeer is daar en dit is 'n toneel wat net raakgesien moet word.

Keep shooting
Weereens geluk!

Fly

This is really nice. the only downside is to much black at the bottom halve. would def have zoomed in closer or have had a different crop to it. Mood is strong, colours and focus right. Subject caught at right moment and suspended fly feel enhanced by this. Exposure to good use for silouette.

The Holiday Photographer

This photographer is useless. Has he not discovered A.F. yet. The flash head is all wrong for correct bounce. It looks like he's drinking a cup of tea with he's pinkie up. Not proper control over focus ring and should it be the zoom he's trying to do...goog luck. The complete grip lends itself to camera shake at low shutter speeds.
Please contact RB photographers for an aprentice position...lol. Hope you understand this to be a joke based on the recent thread.

Nice take and what makes this special is the faces in the background. Nice holiday spirit to this

Beautifull light here and the comp works well leading into image. Foreground however is distracting here and blurred "nothing" should be cropped out. Just my 2c worth on it. Other might feel different? I would have gone closer to the edge and ad more depth to it that way. Always easy to comment like this when you havent been there yourself

Surreal feel to this and a great take. B&W works on this. Would be tempted to work on the image and brighten up the rays of light in the water. Unusual image. 8

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-- I took the one less traveled by (Frost)

Slightly different comp would have made this work even better. The PP work lets this down a bit and I dont think it's needed with this quality shot. Not shure what was done but it does look like you did pp on this? If Im wrong my apologies but the colours and textures on the scene as a whole does look odd and not natural which is important for this type of scene in my taste 7

Dove's winter retreat
by jagar

Comment:
As simple as this is it has a great feel to it. The pure white sky with the white foreground helps to make this building stand out perfectly (adding to the seperated allone feel) and the "barren trees" gives this a desolate feel yet security sugested within this "fortress" building that could give shelter. 9
