    You certainly captured her need and even desperation shown through the grime and the eyes cast away. Nice job of isolating your subject from the background.

    Seascapes are always a favorite of mine. You really caught the feel of a cold windy day. It's a bit too dark for me, as I like to see more detail. The foamy waves, the jetty, the rocks are all lacking in detail that would make this a more interesting photograph.

    Very interesting building and certainly worthy of photographic interest. Yet, it's just too dark to appreciate the fine detail in this old building. Would love to see other studies of this in a better light.

    I think I'm starting to recognize your style! You've taken what could be just another boring snapshot and brought life to it. I like that you didn't overdo the post processing but did just enough to bring out the dynamic range of light. I can see all of the different textures even though it's such a wide angle. Well done.

    This subject has a lot of potential but unfortunately I don't think you hit many of the marks that separate a snapshot from a great photograph. The mother goose being on guard over her goslings could have been more impactful with either a tighter crop, a longer lens or more light. There is an overall flatness and lack of texture and detail that says snapshot. The grass, the reeds, the leaves, the water, the feathers are all flat with very little dynamic range. I know you had to work with the light that you had, but when the result is so flat it's hardly worth sharing. Sorry for being so blunt but I'm sure you want honest critique. Keep at it because you have a good eye for composition.
  1. This is a wonderful portrait. Just the right light to get wonderful detail and texture. Softened just a bit to give it that romantic feel. I like the pose. It's very different and it's staged without being overdone. Very good work!

    I love the subject and the expression on his face. The flowing robes give nice movement to the photo. I have to give this a lower mark because it's too heavily post processed and I see a halo all around his body. It also seems over sharpened.

    I like this. A great perspective! I like the color treatment. It goes very well with the subject. I also like that for an inanimate object like a railroad track, you managed to tell a story with your perspective. The telephone wires and poles add a wonderful and delicate counterpoint to the boldness of the rails. I would frame this.

    Wow, now this really popped out at me. Beautiful face, very natural expression that doesn't look forced. I love this lighting too.I like that you did not over process it and pretty mugh just left it the way you took it. I would like to see more of a catch light in her right eye but overall a good portrait of a beautiful face.

    You're on the right track as you got that golden light in the trees. I'd like to see more of the foreground cropped out. It's too dark and detracts from the light in the trees. Sometimes that juxtaposition works, as it does for the trees and the clouds, but I don't think it does with the foreground. I see a really good photo when I scroll down to just below the small trees.

    Wonderful shot. Love, love the girls and her wrap, the color, the textures, the expression is great. It just great that you caught her with that background that tells so much about who she is. Kudos.

    Love this. One can only guess what they are looking so concerned about. I would like to see more detail in the black head coverings. I think the lack of detail there detracts somewhat from an overall great street shot.

    Great action shot. You were really in the right place at the right time on this one. Great capture of the wings and the colors of the birds. A little faster lens might have been nice to get more of the details. Great shot.

    I like the whole composition from the path going up and to the right to the balance of the wall versus the building. A great choice to do this in b&w. It really shows off the many different textures. Well done.

    Very ethereal. The overall impact is kind of magical with the blooms and the buds and the oh so perfect light through the hazy. This is one of those photos where sharpness would take away rather than add to the feel. I like it.
  2. A great subject but it's too dark. I can't see any detail in the dark feathers or around the face. You've captures some great light and the branch looks great in front of the green of the leaves. Lighten the head and shoulder feathers and you'd have a great photo.

    Now this is a good street scene. I like the depth of field and the colors the girls are wearing really catch your eye. I like the candid-ness of this shot. You really caught the moment. Well done.
