I wanted to show some good shape and form from the branches and make

a good flowing composition of it. I also wanted to show the new

leaves well. Please comment.

I took this for the pattern and the color contrast. My goal is that

it works as a kind of abstract/nature and that the composition is

balanced. I would like to hear back about it. Thanks

Please comment on composition.

I like this photo. It is definitely a more subtle aesthetic experience which is why I am glad a photo such as this has been chosen as POW. I am glad the elves aren't just looking for their favorite postcards. I really like the metallic looking sky and don't see it as just empty space. I think the sky and the silhouette work together very well in this photo.

Here's this one again. I'm looking for comments and critiques.

I am glad this got POW. No, it's not a racecar or a volcano erupting... but it brings significance to the ordinairy by way of an artists insight and skill with a medium (light). It also looks like a thoughtfully chosen and composed subject.

Please comment on composition.

My focus was on what the tiny purple and yellow flowers seemed to

give to this autumn hillside. Have I had any success in capturing

that? Please comment.

I feel like there is too much in the photo. I can't say I know quite what I would do though. It seems like there is too much detail in shadow in the foreground. Just my two cents...

What is the first improvement that pops into your mind? I just want

to know if it's what I think it is.

Is this photo interesting? If not, Why? What might be the main

hangups aesthetically? I would greatly appreciate feedback.

please critique

Any comments, critiques?

I think the eyes are perfect. I like how the shape of the man's left ear shows, and the positioning of the lips... Past sufferings are not something that stands out to me from this portrait. I think there's an enthusiasm that shows from the face.

should the subject be closer?
