Nice handling of the low tones, just barely showing texture.

I like the formal rigid symmetry of the canoe (and its location in the frame) on top of the rather more random natural background. But the colors, esp. the greens, are wonky.
-
The title adds significant irony. Tonal range looks a little flat, and the sky seems rather noisy.
-
Annoyingly unsharp, and rough texture especially in the sky -
Humans like faces; this one is too far away. I do appreciate the flight of the hair, though. Under stage lighting quite possibly the color can't be any less wonky, but it still bothers me. -
I dunno that adding the camera really helps the sunset much. -
Really needs more light on his face, and it isn't scarily sharp either. But I like the lone reenactor reloading almost in cover.
-
Very nice juxtaposition of expressions, and all commendably sharp too.
-
I don't like getting everybody from the rear like this, and with the clouds of smoke in the air I'd like at least some fire still in it.
-
For me, this misses by having the wrong degree of blur, most particularly the head.
-
The clouds at the zenith are printed down too far, and thus look very bizarre. -
Noisy sky, and a pair of strange blots fairly central in the sky.
-
Unusual angle, colors, *and* a strange reflection; but I'm not sure it actually adds up to anything for me.
-
Nicely geometric. And I like the gap in the circle of people and the guy sitting in the middle. -
-
This captures the media coherency, and their isolation from the people they're right there covering, splendidly. Comparing expressions in the two groups is fascinating. -
I like the relationship between the two main figures. He's not obviously a cop to me just based on visual clues, though; I'd need to see it in context (news article or photo essay on the demonstration, or something) to get that on my own. -
Wow that looks old. Oh, I see, it *is*. Old-style mopeds, and a scooter. The central, nearest, guy is looking away AND his head is just a featureless black blob, which I find weakens the picture.
-
I like the leg position of the ball-carrier -- almost a classic ballet leap. Most of the rest I don't like so much, and lots of the rest seems to interfere with the interesting position of the carrier. -
Bright wing going right behind head, and rather dark face, reduces the power. I like the expression of course.
-
I like the depth of field effects across the "rolling" paper (like rolling hills; I can't call it "bent" or "wrinkled"). And I like the use of what looks like an accidental garbage printout for something interesting, I've wasted far too much paper on stuff that looked like this, and never thought of anything to do with it. -

This composition really grabs me; partly the outer birds looking resolutely in, I think. Somehow it seems more boundless than the others -- I actually went back to check that there wasn't sand or something in the previous photo, I *remembered* it as being somehow bounded.
