Comments appreciated.

Nice expression on his face - well captured. Bit more dof might help?

Nice colours, good use of the palm tree as well. Watch the horizon though, its tilted to the right.

Its beautiful - I could spend a lot of time gazing from one area to another in this picture. Can't think of any suggestions to improve - good work.

Ok I gave it a try...

Very nice. The car seems to distract attention away though - otherwise its a powerful image.

Taken in early morning light in a park in Cambridge, UK. I did this

for the contrast and shadow - ratings and comments welcome.

Ratings and comments welcome.

I found the patterns and colours very attractive. This photo is as

it was taken - would cropping make it look better?

 

Thanks for your ratings and comments.

Ratings and comments please.

Thanks Jennifer, Amelie...its what I wanted to see/hear. I tried playing around with the sky before putting up the image but failing to get any better results, I gave up. Nice work on PS though, how do you get the shading on the structure and grass?

Nice shot - I like aviation pics. Did you have more in the picture? Another angle with more light on the plane would help.

 

Also check out airliners.net.

 

Ratings and comments welcome. Thanks.

Its definitely a shapshot, but I like the atmosphere it conveys. The low lighting, blurred figures, the guy on the sofa looking away (TV perhaps?)...they make the picture.

 

Try reducing the size - alternatively let people know its a big image so we click on the smaller version.

Very good - I would play around with the crop . .maybe make this a tighter shot?

Jester - thanks for your rating. When giving a low rating, it would help if you left your reasons / rationale. I think this photo is definitely more than a 3/3!!

Brilliant sky - you've captured the light and clouds very well. The foreground (shore) is quite distracting with the machinery and stuff. Did you take any other shots that might simplify the situation?

Saw a row of boats moored and this one was hard to let go - comments

on composition and cropping welcome.

Its a nice picture. Look closer and you'll see some inaccuracies - probably the reason for lower ratings for originality. Examples - the ramp's reflection, abrupt change to land near the ramp, bench reflection - you can improve these by selecting part of the structure for the digital reflection.

Its a well composed picture - can't think of anything to change that. But, as you were thinking of the sky when you took it, would be nicer to see more sky and less of the foreground. The colours looked slightly washed out (very minor) so I tried adjusting the contrast. Result attached...

Don't know what your picture looked like before the crop but isolating the boat to a side with more of the mist and hillsides would improve the view. Photo seems to have a tilt towards the right though I'm not certain there is one. Other than that, minor tweaking with contrast levels results in a better look (see photo I've attached).

Might look nicer if taken at dawn or dusk with some light behind the structure. The street lamp at the bottom distracts - cropping it out would help. In the picture above I haven't cropped the building on the left but doing so would help further.

Ideas on composition / exposure / cropping etc welcome.

Nice photo, but why not in colour?

Rotate clockwise by about 2 degrees - there's significant tilt.

 

The dark foreground does nothing for the photo - try cropping it out - more sky would look better.
