An excellent use of the wet plate process. The framing, lighting and pose give it a timeless quality. Without a doubt my favorite from your wet plates, great work!

Although fog is a great subject, this doesn't seem to capture it well. The softness of the fog look more like camera shake. Color tones scream for a different selection in white balance and the car's headlights just look weird.
I think I agree with Anders in saying that it would work better in B&W.

The haze, color and 3D quality of the hills really makes this shot. That's why the trees and brush on the left are so unfortunate. They make the photo slightly unwieldy.

Excellent image. Great DOF and - I know I'm in a minority here, but - the slightly 'spiral' effect this bokeh creates is a favorite of mine. If anything I would work with the model on her pose. It's very dry, her expression is very static and those flipflops coming off her feet are very unflattering.

An interesting subject, but I find the framing to be a little too tight - both on the house and on the tree behind it. A couple steps back or forward would've done the trick.

The light leak brings memories of natural sun flare and works really well in this shot. Shame about the scratch though. I think it might also look better if the selective focus left the foreground in focus - just a thought.

I adore this kind of large format portraiture. The selective tilt focus and slight motion blur really make it while the muted tones from the polaroid give it a nice retro look - great job.
