Very nice photo, Piotr. Great lighting and sharp focus. Beautiful model with a pensive expression. Love the eyes. IMHO it would be 3TU except for the very busy background...distracts from the main subject, you wonderful model. Great job, thanks for sharing. Len

Hi Martyn, I like the scene and the B&W works well, but I agree the the distortion doesn't work for me. The tilt also desn't work for me. Thanks for the post...Len

Hi Bob,
I like this photo very much..the mist in the trees really evokes early morning. The firey sky is striking. The color in trees in the foreground provide a counter-balance to the darker band of forest and hills. Thanks for the post. Len

Hi David, welcome to Photosig and thanks for posting. I like the scene very much; muted colors with nice lighting. The tilt does not bother me as the trees are straight and obviously on a hill.
Good post...Len

Hi Jonathan,
Love the baby and its expression.; even the little bit of drool...but...
Way too much face for the frame. I usually don't have an issue with full frame portraits but this is somewhat too much. IMHO opinion, you have to pull back and let the baby breath.
Thanks for the post, Len

Hi Michelle...great shot with issues as you know. Love the pose, the cropping and the great smile.
IMO its a photo that can be saved, maybe not get to 3TU but certainly one for the family album or the wall at home.
In PS work with darkening the highlights and maybe upping the saturation. With more effort you might be able to grab the upper left portion that's over-exposed and work that section separately.
The effort should be worth it!!! Great effort and lots of luck....

Very nice shot. I am amazed that with a 1-sec exposure you have such little motion blur. It's a very nice exposure, lighting is good even the spot lights on the building, focus good also. You don't list the ISO but it must have been very high yielding a grainy sky. I think it works well, though and I enjoyed the post. Print it and hang it! Good job...Len

Nice shot, Mohsin. Good job on the he DOF, blurring the backgound makes the bird pop out of the photo yet kept the bird in sharp focus from tail to beak.. Not easy! How did you convince the bird to look back at you for the shot? (: I would have been tempted to clean up the bird doo?? on the left of the post in PS. Nit pick though! Good post, thanks for sharing.....Len

Very nice shot, Jan. The colors of the dresses pop off the screen. Focus and DOF are spot on & I like the crop. My issue with the photo, keeping it from 3TU are the bright sun on the foreheads of the dancers on the left and right and the partial head of the 2nd dancer from the left. Good job, thanks for the post.....Len

Very nice shot, Donald. You caught the fall colors are their most vibriant.
I like that the clouds shrouding the mountain provide a contrast to the sunny trees on the bottom. The fence provides a nice toch at the bottom. I'd love to see a more panoraminc view, if you captured one. Good job, Thanks for the post. ......Len

Beautiful shot Neil. Focus & lighting are near perfect. Additionally, your exposure time stopped the water nicely.
IMO your crop works ...I like seeing the trees at the top of the right hand cliff. Great job.....Len

Nice industrial photgraphy Sebastian. I could also see this in a text book or in an advertisement. Crystal clear focus with nice DOF. Good capture...Len

Nice shot, Bill. I like they way the rose pops off the black background. Great focus and lighting. The one issue I have with the photo, and its a major one, is that the black background seems to be very dusty. Is it dust or pollen? either was, IMHO a crisp black background would work better.
Thanks for letting us shre your work...Len

As Nicholas implies, "What a great pose...wish I was there!" Great composition; just as if you were able to pose animal yourself.
I agree a little too soft on the focus and a little too bright in the background.
Good catch, thanks for sharing......Len
