Delicate, vivid and lively presentation of a gerbera.

This image gives me the feeling of fresh air in late winter/early spring, when the first rainfall starts melting the snow (this would have been in my country of course).
The tones are nice. The placement and depth of focus, as well as placing the focus of interest in the center of the image balances the main motive with the (presumably) quite messy background so the motive stands out.
I am not sure if it would stand completely on its "own feet" (maybe it would), but I believe this image would fit very well into a series about nature in late winter/early spring. Yes, I like this image.

Remove the background and I still find it a fascinating way to illuminate a model. "Painting" with light, not unseen before, but maybe not this variant. The color of the background is the complementary color of the light's color and makes the foreground stand out.

The contrasting colors and the shower of sparks catches my eyes immediately, but then there is nothing to take over from there. The image looses interest. That is OK. An image doesn't have to have a message or story.

The blurring of one of the swans and the two separated halves of a heart reminds me more of secret distance infatuation than love. The title therefore does not quite match the image - for me that is.
There are two white and very blurred spots behind each swan's necks that distracts from the main motive. They are almost like magnets that pull on my eyes. Also the lighting is not very romantic, and therefore in a way opposes the main message in the image.

I really like the lighting, tones and mood in this picture. This is how a snowy day in February feels and looks like.

A humorous picture and a fine environmental portrait. Also brings more serious thoughts about life into my mind. I like this picture. The tones are very nice.

Hi

A very poetic picture. I don't think the title fits the image. The image exudes peace and tranquility, not storm. The flowing water (or is it frozen?) leads the eye into the image and makes for a good feeling of depth.

Technically, there is some color aberrations in the branches, but I don't think it is disturbing in this image. The image is also quite "hard" sharpened which I think adds to the feeling of icy snow on the branches.


I like this photo!

Moving towards winter again. Thanks for looking!

Her body language speaks of disappointment. And maybe that is the point. Even in emptiness we (human beings) search for meaning. We constantly deny meaninglessness.

A good photo.

I enjoy it.

In fact, I have looked through all your images, there are 10 of them, and I enjoy them all, mostly for their creativeness and clean, almost minimalistic compositions.

Original! Very nice tones. Decorative.

Nice contrasting colors. The tilted composition emphasizes the humorous expression.

Great photo! A creative lighting technique that worked out very well!

Hi,

I'm not sure if I have anything to learn you, but want to say that I find that the rough grains in this photo suits, and also emphasizes the rough, monotonous coastal landscape and the turbulent sky quite well. The place feels lonely and remote, and in one manner tranquil. Everything points straight towards the vanishing point which is beyond the end of the beach, and also in the center of the square image. And the image is divided in two almost equal halves, one with the beach and one with the sky. This, I believe, makes for a very static composition, and thereby makes the sky the only dynamic element in the scene. That is where the drama is, where things happen in this image. The reflections in the beach pond of the most important part of the sky strengthens it since it also "tells you" to look at the sky. I find this image quite well composed.
