defocus the background, darken the screen left piano, crop out some of the left right and top. make sure to balance the dancers. you are including the right background guy to not clip him, but if you defocus and darken, that wont be a problem. consider trying to balance the white in their shirts more, the mans is much brighter and his face has more contrast which is great. the woman is flatt compared to him. it would be worth making these changes. great shot

nice composition. it looks like you had alot of white clipping and decided to photoshop down those values. the result is too uniform. this photo is probably ruined because of that. if you want to try, you could consider selecting the clipped values and make a matte, then bring them down with less uniform values, or multiply that selection against a noisy layer to mix it up

this is really nice all around. consider cropping left grate hole out for better symetry/composition

nice

December 10, 2005

this is fantastic, but consider cropping the left a bit. dead space distracts from center/right

December 10, 2005

very nice, consider defocus on background, brighting foreground a bit for more contrast with mid ground

December 10, 2005

crop the bottom a bit. nice though great tonal range

December 10, 2005

really nice tones, consider cropping to remove far right high kicks on tree base, they dont match rest of photo.

clone out the bird, it doesn't help

nice, but reduce contrast in forground clouds a bit. defocus back layer of clounds. consider cropping for better composition. the right area is empty.

no comment.

composition is very bad. consider cropping right to match left more. flatten tones in back and possibly defocu s bit. desaturate the red as it distracts from the face. be more daring with your lighting. dim right shoulder of left model to match other model

cropp in for better composition

December 10, 2005

consider cropping out the screen right bug and making this more verticle. consider cropping in a bit too

December 10, 2005

nice shapes, consider darking front shapes to match tones above the tree.

December 10, 2005

consider cropping heavily at bottom

December 10, 2005

considering cropping the entire screen right plant and over. very very nice

December 10, 2005

pretty tones.

December 10, 2005

Artifacting from photoshop is apparent in the upper left borner of the green and other areas. consider cloaning back in the original pink.

Beautiful tones and contrast, but see if you have a better composition. There is too much dead space lower right and a strange geometric shadow.

Consider cropping 20% off the left side. Thats alot of dark space and the vanishing point / ray area might look more interesting offset/ not centered. As it is, this photo is heavily weighted to the right. Also, consider increasing the contrast in the middle luma tones in the water reflection, and increasing contrast overall in the ray area.
