This is a really calming picture to me. I like the simplicity and the clean lines! I might have gotten in a bit closer to make the tree a bit bigger just for visual effects since there aren't too many clouds in the sky, but that's just me. I think you've done a great job and I really like it!

I love the desaturation of all the colors except her outfit...it really adds a dramatic effect to the picture! The only thing I'd say is I wish the leads face had been a little bit more in focus and clearer or at least he had been looking up, but then again trying to time a photo with a couple dancing is a hard task and you've pulled it off beautifully! I'm a dancer so I can appreciate this from both sides! Especially because photographers never seem to catch me at the right moment when dancing so I really appreciate this photo! GREAT JOB!

I don't know how you managed to capture such a clear and flawless reflection, but this is beautiful! So simply, so serene! I love it! GREAT job!

Mike,

Thank you so much for viewing my photo and for your nice critique! I'm glad you like this one. Maybe after the holidays I can subscribe so I can share more! :)

Thanks again!

Mike,

Thank you for your tips and your help! I'll be sure to take your advice as well and experiment with it all! You've really brought a lot of information my way, I really apprecaite it! :) And I think you make a good point...the stars would probably enhance the photo a lot! I'll be sure to try out what y'all have suggested and see what I come up with! Thank you for viewing and critiquing!

Such an amazing shot! And such an amazing moment to capture!! I love the contrast between the sun's rays and the darkness! Beautiful photo!

I love the sun coming through the trees....it's moody and mysterious with a hint of hope. So much drama! GREAT job!!

I LOVE how the eyes are even more capturing by the color of the hat? on her head!  And I love the white...so pure so clean! It make the lines and curves so much more apparent! Great job!

Alf-

Thanks so much for the advice and input on my photo!! I'm so excited that someone actually checked it out and liked it! I'm new to a lot of this and especially new here and a little intimidated so it's great to hear from someone!

I'll be sure to try that out! This was actually my first time trying any shots at night and as you said, I think my biggest challenge is finding a place I like away from lights. This was actually in my front yard. :) So needless to say, next time I plan to venture out a little! Again, thanks so much for the tips! I'll try it out and share what I come up with!

Best regards,

Stephanie

Wow, I love this! I've done the wedding ring in a book, but I've never seen it done like this...I LOVE the red! Great Job! Great lighting!!

This is BEAUTIFUL! I love the pattern & setup of the picture! You captured it perfectly! My husband and I are headed to Venice in a couple weeks so I'm excited to try my hand at a few gondola photos! Hopefully I'll be able to do 'em justice as you have!
