Nice contrast and color to the picture. Definitely an eye catcher.

I believe this should belong to a travel brochure. Absolutely stunning colors and very well composed - the clouds gives that "calm after the storm" feel to it. Two thumbs up! I love it.

Hi Ken, I like this one Angela much better than the previous one you posted with her standing in front the wall and rusted barrel. The warm colors from the sun shining on the subjects face stands out great against the skyblue background. The composition is well balanced with good rules of thirds - a good attention with her eyes which draws the viewers eyes down her cheek to her necklace. The only two areas that could use improvement is the focusing on her face; it seems...

I like it. Reminds me of a Orson Welles film for some reason. Good use of contrast and tones that brings out black areas as well as the white areas. The photo carries my eyes from the bottom up - lovely angles and lines as a result. Great shot, I enjoyed it very much.

This reminds of Africa for some reason. It almost looks like there's a cheetah or lion at the trunk of the tree. The color came out really nice in this shot. Although the focus could've been sharper, the picture really gives a nice mood to it. Thanks for sharing!

Very good mixture of warm and cool colors. Great shot! Is that what it really looks like to a human eye?

Hi Eric. Good use of DOF and the contrast came out pretty good as well. I can't seem to find anything this photo needs work on. Good job, thanks for sharing.

I really like hte angle of your composition. The direct sunlight is drowning out the color of the tulips a bit. But overall, it's a great shot. Thanks for sharing.

The color in this photograph is excellent. It definitely gives a nice tone of emotion with the color and contrast. DOF is good too. The reflection from the water gives it a surreal feel to it making it seem that there are lightning coming from everywhere. The only thing I can think of that needs improvement is the spotlight thats taking much of the attention away from the lightning. Some dodging in that area will help the picture drastically. Great shot, I enjoyed it very...
