  1. The energy in this photo is wonderful. It's just infectious. You've really managed to capture a moment in time. Just wondering, do you make movies as well? There's a strong story telling element to this so it just kind of gave the impression that you're also a filmmaker. One tiny thing that I would adjust would be to dull down the highlights just slightly so that the back wall, in the upper right corner, isnt so intense. Because it's the lightest area of the room, our eye naturally goes there instead of the subjects which are great! But it's just an idea:)
  2. I've seen this bridge in person many many times but this photograph just really brings out its beauty. The long exposure has created such a soft, painterly quality of the water and makes the bridge's design seem even more sharp and contrasting. Well done! Do you have any more photographs like this? I'd love to see them all together or in some soft of slideshow back to back. Also, have you ever taken photos of the dancing hous in Prague? I think you'd appreciate the architecture and be able to photograph it really well!
  3. This is incredible! Did you go to a zoo or farm? Just wondering how you were able to photograph a bird like this. It's really just stunning, especially how all the feathers and patterns that emerge create guiding lines and fill the space beautifully. Also, the colors and intense red of the eye is a wonderful contrast. Do you have other animal photographs?

    Really great job with this photo. The amount of texture is just incredible. I love that the rocks (or is it a landfill) and the people have such a high contrast and tons of texture and how that's paired against a very muted and soft sky. I honestly wouldn't change much about it. Maybe lighten the sky a tiny bit but definitely don't make it much lighter, I like that the grey sort of goes against the high contrast of the rest of the photo. Also, this is just my personal taste, I would consider cropping it so that the subjects are not smack in the middle of the frame, that will add even more visual interest but that's just me. I love extreme asymmetry. But both should be easy edits, even for a basic photo editor. Whether you decide to change this photo or leave it exactly the same, it's really well done and stood out among the other images!
  5. I really enjoy this photo! I'm a big fan of extreme asymmetry so I love you overall composition of the photo. I also appreciate that you didn't photograph it so the horizon is right in the middle. The way you went about it adds a lot more visual interest. The only suggestions I would give is maybe enhancing the contrast so that the car stands out even more and maybe punching up the colors a bit more. It seems sort of in the middle, either it can be stark and nearly colorless (which you can also easily adjust) or a bit more intensely colored. That shouldn't be too difficult though, any editing software should be able to handle that. I use this if it helps:) Overall, I really enjoyed this picture! Thanks for sharing it.
  6. First off, the colors in this photo are fantastic. The softness of the clouds and water is perfectly contrasted by the detail and texture of the moss. I personally would bring down the highlight a tiny bit. The upper left corner is a smidge bright for my taste but that's just me. But that should be an easy fix with a photo editing software. I'm mainly writing because your visual style photo seems similar to this new technique called HDR. Basically you take the same image 3 times each with different exposures. Then you combine all three versions of the image and it creates one photo with this incredible richness and complexity. You certainly have already achieved a similar effect with this photo, just figured I'd share this technique since it might interest you:)
  7. This photo is fantastic. The movement, shapes, color, all of it just works so well to me. I'm not sure if this is a critique because I have nothing that I would personally change but wanted to express how impressed I am and how much I enjoy this photo. Truly an excellent job.
