The foreground details are a nice addition to the magnificent background and reflection (I miss something like that in the other landscapes recently posted by you).

 

Greetings

Very good detail and nice colours: the blueish bug contrasts perfectly with the green background, but I can see many artifacts in the background (it looks like too much compression).

Great mood and point of view. The child in foreground really adds to the picture.

The horizon is a little slanted, and I would prefer not having the fisherman cropped at the right end. But the look is very well achieved (you could call it "end of the world"). Love the different textures of stones, water and clouds.

 

Greetings

Slavko: that's fine, then. I couldn't guess what you preferred.

Hi, Julius.

 

I think that you made a overall fine work, but some details could improve your picture. A little less space on top and some light to remove the shadows around the eyes would emphasize the face. Besides that, the shiny metal pieces in the coat can be distracting (but, is there an easy way of avoiding them?).

 

Greetings

Original and very funny. Not sure about the eye of the bird in the center (I think you've been unlucky and catched it blinking).

 

Greetings

Very original point of view and striking colours. Is there a halo (or something like) in the blue around man's head?

Just a perfect picture in every respect. I like especially the way in which the flower seems to be looking at the bug. Congrats.

Very nice shot, Ozgur. The contrasting colours and background blurred lines make appear the little beast as being somewhere "over" the picture, rather than "in" the picture.

 

Some more light or direct sunlight would have enhanced the red colour.

 

Greetings

Despite the cropped head of one of the shadows, a great picture. Very original.

Hi, Manir.

 

Right 1/4 of the picture seems to be a little cluttered for my taste. But the colours in the trees and its reflections look very nice, and the little red figure in the center makes a great focal point (it atracts the eyes immediately despite its small relative size).

Perfect shot, Ozgur. Lines and reflections are nice, and the blurred figure is great. The bin at left balances the composition very well.

 

I only wonder how do you managed to get that place empty of people. It looks like a usually busy place (metro station or the like).

Beautiful picture, Morteza. I love the contrast between blurred water and wetted stones, whose texture you catched very well, despite of difficult exposure. The little plants add that extra "life" feel. Congrats

Hello, Ozgur

 

You choose a very difficult subject here, and I think you could have done better. Shallow DOF makes harder to get right focusing, and even if you did well focusing in the eyes of the subject, keeping in focus at least a wing would be more pleasant.

 

Besides that, I can see burned areas behind the butterfly's head and below his eyes. Framing is too much wide, but if you can't go closer with that lens, it is OK. Please take my comment as a honest advice to enhance your pictures.

 

Regards.

Great shot, kamyar. The series of archs and the bright background against the shadowy corridor gives a great sense of depth. Really nice.

I have mixed feelings about this one. Thank you for any criticism or

advice that you could give me.

Very nice shot, Kamyar. The detail in the clouds fills the otherwise empty upper third, and the curve in the foreground leads the viewer to the tree. Good reflections too. Looks good also as a B/W picture.

 

Greetings

La tonalidad, el reflejo y el ambiente perfectos, la neblina le da un plus. Sólo me inquieta un poco que no se vea el final de los árboles (o lo que sea eso) por arriba. Pero es un detalle casi insignificante. Saludos.

Beautiful portrait with great lighting, but I see some strange reflections (?) in the glasses. I would like it more without that.

Para un observador neutral, puede ser una fotografía bien compuesta y con bellos colores. En quien ha disfrutado de parajes como éste desde que nació despierta emociones difíciles de describir. Así que, como soy incapaz de observarla objetivamente, no sé decidir si me gusta tanto por su calidad fotográfica o por lo que significa.

Hello, kamyar

 

A nice perspective, would be better if the tree was more prominent (having leaves, or being a bit larger), but nothing that you could do about that. The combination of horizontal and diagonal lines adds a sense of depth.

Sorprendente y con un tono muy particular, inusual. La iluminación de la cara del pintor no es quizás la ideal (demasiado suave para mi gusto). El triángulo que forman el cuadro central, el rostro y los pinceles, un ejemplo de libro de para qué sirve el espacio en una foto.

Good picture, kamyar.

 

It gives a very strong feel of loneliness, because of great empty space and BW look. Composition is bizarre but very appealing, maybe it could have been framed with a little less space to the right (and more to the left, so we could see more footsteps and the shadow end not so close of frame border), but I like too this way.

 

Greetings and (as I guess that you are Iranian) happy Nowrouz.
