The sunset from Guatemala (3)

Hi again, Hector :-) Think this one is better than the first one you uploaded. The horizon is still tilted, but the horizon line i drawn downwards and away from the middle. The man walking in the sea also brings a little extra to the picture and I like him being silhouetted. Thanks for sharing, best regards, Geir

Hi Hector! Nice motive with nice colors. IMO the noise is not disturbing. As mentioned earlier the horizon line is a little tilted and needs to be straightened up. IMO the picture would benefit from cropping the upper part a bit. That would bring the horizon line up. As it is now, the horizon divides the picture in two equal parts causing less depth. Thanks for sharing, best regards, Geir

Hi Thomas! Like your work. Think you have captured a really good scene. The soft curves of the landscape and the rather "hard" sky works well together as they brings needed contrast to a motive that otherwise could have been a little "boring". Still, in my opinion, the overall contrast regarding to highlights/shadows is a little to hard. You could have fixed this by lowering the overall contrast and then worked on separate parts of the motive? The choice of BW goes...

I like this picture, Tom. I find the motive very unusual but interesting. The lines and angles appeals to me. Like your choice of BW. You could have worked a little more on the contrasts. As suggested by others, to crop the dark part at the right side would be a good idea, IMO. Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir.

Nice shot, Ayman, well captured. DOF is very good and helps to bring out the motive. The main motive, IMO, is placed a little to low and maybe slightly to much to the right side as well. Lowering the angle would help a lot, giving the picture a little more foreground. Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir.

Hi Sven. A portrait with a lot of intensity in the girls eyes. That's really good! Think that composition/crop works well. Sharpnes seem good and DOF is very nice. The picture is dark and the light appears very flat. To me it seems like there's a lot of potensial for improvement in this one. Start working on the light/contrast would be my suggestion. Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir.

Hi Jan. Think this is a very nice work from you. Shapes, lines and colors works great together, I think. Motive is simple but "powerful". The minimalistic impression is very atractive, IMO. Very often the apperence of people in the picture would add something important to the work - in this case I would say that the lack of people is really great! Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir.

Thumb-up    from realfakephoto/Geir (1,429) Send mail to this user on August 30, 2012 2:47:22 AM CDT (2) Early critique

Hi Irwin. A common motive, but captured from a different angle than most of the other pictures I've seen. That's great! Like your composition and the crop you have chosen. The people in the foreground adds some "dynamic" to your work. I think that BW works good in this one. Think you have added a little to much contrast and I allso think the shadowed parts are a little to dark. Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir

Hi Igor. Great work I think. This picture is interesting, I think, because it tells a story. Maybe you could have given it a little more contrast? I like the light and the silhouetted people. Tonal range is good. Works very well in BW. Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir.

Hi Andreas. I like this one. Simple motive, still very powerful. Nice tonal range. Sharpness is good. Maybe a little more contrast would have been nice? Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir.

The Dying Tree Near the Rio Grande (2)

Hi Terri. I like your motive. But, somehow, the main motive (the tree) disappears a little IMO. There is a lack of contrast and the colors seems rather pale, I think. Foreground a little disturbing with grass covering lower part of the tree. The sky has some burned out areas and seems a little flat in general. Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir.

Hi Aleksander. First of all a very nice portrait of a beautiful bird! Sharp and well composed. I usually prefer BW pictures, but in this one I think the color version has some more power. The contrast between the yellow parts and the rest, is really great. Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir.

Hi Jan. This is a portrait that has got a lot of humor in it. Probably tells a lot about the girl's mood in many other situations as well. Think you have chosen a good angle from where the picture is taken. Composition is nice and the light seems very nice to me. On my screen (not calibrated for some weeks) the skin-tones seems a little grey? Thanks for sharing. Best regards, Geir.

Thumb-up Thumb-up    from realfakephoto/Geir (1,429) Send mail to this user on August 3, 2012 2:49:03 AM CDT (6) Early critique

Hi Tom. To me, this work is somewhere between 2 and 1T. I really like the motive and the fact that despite the blured water you have stilled managed to maintain a lot of "movement" in the image. The skies contributes to that as well. The composition, IMO, is good, but maybe a little lower position of the camera would have contributed to a even more powerful picture? I like the blue tones, as they, IMO, highlights the dramatic impression created by the skies and the "power"...

It's Just Water Over the Log (3)
richardgreene/Richard (4,236)
Thumb-up    from realfakephoto/Geir (1,429) Send mail to this user on August 2, 2012 2:08:14 PM CDT (1) Early critique

Hi Richard. I think you have captured some really nice elements in this picture. The long shutter speed (maybe it could have been even a few seconds longer) brings out a really nice, smooth texture to the flowing water. I also think the stones in the foreground are sharp and with a "delicious" light/saturation. The background, on the other hand, is (IMO) not very interesting. As it is now I don't think the different elements in the image "melts together" properly. Thanks...
