A portrait with potential; nice model, clean colourless scheme besides her hair, good eye contact. The light from behind in her hair is a little harsh though and while the focus is fine, it could stand to be sharpened up some.

Beautiful family moment, those faces are precious, mummy looks so protective yet tender. Why so thin on the crop though? I'd have liked to see a little more of this scene. Lovely shot.

Sad but True

I don't know what her story is but this image makes me want to know. Very sad. Very well-taken too; great focus, rich colours and thought-provoking overall. Good work.

An interesting arrangement of branches, an intriguing path; a nice place to take a photograph. The heavy over-saturation on the greens spoils this for me though, I don't think it needed such vibrant tones, in fact the slightly eerie look of this road would have suited a more muted tone.

As a photograph, I'm not keen on the soft processing as it has begun to look like a painting. As a painting, it would be lovely, lol; nice subject, good bokeh, attractive colours. Maybe go a little easier in PP next time; still quite like it though.

Looks like a nicely-kept location but I'm personally not keen on the processing, the blue tint is unappealing and the foliage becomes a bit overbearing. I think I'd have preferred seeing this in proper full colour.

This is very sweet, lovely happy little faces, nice focus on them. I don't even really mind the blown highlights in the background as the little ones are so engaging. Nice work.

Clearing Storm, Late Spring, Yosemite Valley

I found it hard to find a focal point in this shot, with the sweep of trees, chunks of rock and thick cloud, it's like it's simple but too much at the same time. Not sure if that's entirely a bad thing though as it did make me study the image; it is well-composed, the moody sky looks great and the scenery itself is gorgeous. It is a very good shot generally.
