Interesting waterfall Martin. I like the stair-stepped rocks. Very difficult to get a nice image of waterfalls with the sun shining on your subject. The flowers on the right should be more of a component. Maybe moving over to the fight a bit and getting closer. To improve this image I would crop the left clipped area out totally.

I like the processing Wessel, it has an old painterly look. I do think the cropping is a bit tight except on top where I would crop just a tad bit more.

Big fan of the disappearing road here Ilan. I like the black and white treatment and the tree placement with the bright background is well done. The sky seems a bit grainy and there appears to be a couple of dust spots in the sky. I might have cloned away the power lines.

I find myself always attracted to these compositions for some reason. I like the moodiness the fog brings to the image. The thing that bothers me is the extremely narrow dof and why you chose to focus that narrow bit just up from the fore. I would like it much better with a smaller aperture and dof from from to back. Between a 1 or 2 but the subject matter makes me round up.

Unique and creative artistic work Yanki. I like the hint of blue at the bottom giving just a bit of color. My criticism may be just personal but I would like to see a bit more contrast in her feet and shoes from the floor of the same tones.

An enjoyable scene of the elephants on the African Plain. The exposure is well handled and the composition is fine for what it is. It has the look of a snapshot or tourist shot to me. Perhaps there are just too many elements in the image. Maybe better light and a tighter shot would have worked.

Now this is a composition you don't see everyday. Very striking image. You have too much noise and moreover, the centered composition kinda spoils it for me. Don't mind the pano though.

I really like the composition with the berry in the beak. The noise is a bit off putting though. Wish the bird was a bit brighter and the background a bit darker.

Very clear and detailed rural scene Bogdon. I agree is needs just a little more vibrance. The composition would have worked better without the trees that center focus but probably didn't have time to cut them down.

The clouds and mist have given a bit of drama to the image. Tend to agree about the crop. Seems to me a tad to green/blue. I think just a little warming would give more depth.

I like the colors here though as mentioned there seems to be a blue color cast. The detail is lost in the flowers. I've always found bright reds a difficult color to capture. Perhaps there was some wind as it seems a bit soft. 1.5 thumb rounded to a 2.

I really like the composition with the reflection. Wonder if a landscape format might be better though. Looks like the image is rather flat and needs contrast. Might do the sky separately so not to clip the white in the clouds.

I like the even distribution of light Arthur. I might try one with full dof since there's such interesting patterns behind. Also, perhaps a bit tighter if the subject is so close to being centered. You might try dimming the pistil or whatever it is just a tad on top.

Wow, this is very good. Love the lighting. Love the composition. Great depth of field etc... Hope you can market this one.

Except for the cropped edge of the elbow, I like the composition Oscar. Her expression is great (at least imho). She looks comically perturbed.
