Honeycomb****Very nice setting Francesco, I love the concept I haven't seen it for a long time. It works perfectly, tones are great, a cool Black and White take
with perfect DOF and you just invented the 'Rule of 4'. Quite beautiful, original, kind of Mystical. It reminds me of Zen Masters meditating. Quite creative and imaginative. Where did you happened to find that setting?

Fly****BzzzzzzzAs much as flies are a nuisance I like your composition Tine, very good macro with plenty of details, the color palette is excellent and your DOF is perfect however the ROT its not there because the subject is too centered. Suggestion enlarge the image horizontally andd place the fly in a corner.

MOON TAN****EXCELLENT CREATION Francesco, it is gorgeous, a very fine piece of Art work. Here you have the fragmented elements, the ruble, and the whole element, the woman, which contrasts beautifully in a panoramic take where linearity and all forms rule. The scattered elements, mostly broken bricks have a fine monotone presence which does not conflicts with the High Key tonal elements of the woman dreaming of Paradise and the proximity of Summer. There is a fine...

Sexylicious****Lovely shapes and skin tones, she has the perfect body for an erotic take. I would like to see her face otherwise it looks like the objectification of women. Tell your model in a shot like this to turn her head around. When you see a beautiful body like this you also would like to see a frontal shot to get an idea of the whole person and also to complete the idea of the Aesthetics. I also find it amusing, the pose is like a Frog style lol!

Santorini Greece**** This is a nice combination of Cityscape, Seascape and Landscape. The water tone contrasts greatly with the yellow structures at foreground. I was wondering if you Photoshopped the sea or it is as is. The trail of the Boat looks quite real with the foam behind. It has perspective and depth. Nice shot, you can grow wider though, there is so much else to see. Were you too close?

Chloe #1****Unfortunately your Chloe has a stoned facial expression which expression kind of kills the shot, by the way I advise you to tell your Models not to look towards the camera it looks like ready for a firing squad. She is Gorgeous but inexpressive, those luminous eyes are great and the cascading hair phenomenal, by the way the Blouse could do without the undershirt, its a distracting element not necessary here. Too static for my taste, bring her live next time....

2998****Great Depth of Field, this pose is a dream,one of the most sensual takes here, her parted lips are inviting and seduction is in the air. Perfect show of forms and light-shadows contrast. Her smooth skin is a delight as much as its tones. Angle of take shows a joyful woman silently smiling to us in a very natural relaxed pose. It conforms with the ROT in a pleasing way. If this were a scene from a movie it would do perfectly. An Aesthetic shot of the finest quality....

Beware of Curves****And wet road Great modelling shot, I had to enlarged it to figure out if that lower section was a tattoo or a scar. With the curves you can get out of control and off the road you go, with the lips that's a frontal impact CRASH! With all these tempting gals you are building a collection that may eventually derail you. The artistic pose and the contrast are spot on. Her 'evil' is in the eyes, she moves like a hungry Boa Constrictor represented here by...

Who's that knocking at my door? Superb palette of strong colors akin to an oil painting in a setting we can imagine as wide but the wall opening which looks like a chopped ROT and the low window she is viewing the outside world makes us believe that there is a dark story behind, extreme poverty, rubble from war, abandoned humanity or a fugitive hiding or worst a sex- slave prisoner of human traffickers. On the other side of the coin, this is an extraordinary artistic...

Queen Sexy****Quite SexyA solid portrait of a dye hard blonde with extreme cosmetic contrast necessary here to break the monotony of the overall take. Consider the Lingerie, the Blouse, the skin tones, the high key light, they are all monotone but a great contrast is achieved here with: the eye brows, eye lashes, pretty red rouge, colorful nails and deep gaze eyes, all have a punch. Overall a seductive expression ('what are you waiting for?) on a well balanced shot in an...

Tal Mono****Great Collage descending from the wall down or ascending towards it. A fusion, a dilution, and illusion. A confusion of the mind split between reality, dream and Art. An example of what imagination can do with or without us, like on automatic so to speak if we can only rationalize the creative mechanical process, to me, such a process personally has always being a mystery. The two faces Tal Mono emerge in Tandem and express different things at different...

Sally light foot crab 3(size is matter)****
Great shot Peter of two subjects interacting with each other, it looks to me like a male is dancing
to court a female with its prowess, or clowning to impress her and put a smile on her face. The colors are so neat that it is impressive. The contrast is terrific. Background and Foreground work in tandem reinforcing the tonal range and the tonal difference. The Depth of Field is superior providing in minute detail
the Crabs'...

Cardigan & Shorts****Excellent Modelling Gordon, well sculpted body, very contemporary, in recent cat walks models are showing quite a bit of skin, that being the latest in Fashion and Fashion Photography these days. She's got an striking presence and she seems to be doing the Cat Walk, we can only imagine the spectators. The skin tones are perfectly even and I like the Cardigan & Shorts. The background matches evenly the foreground. There are not artifacts or distracting...

Follow The Leader****Is one of the most outstanding shots to date in the Wave department. The capture of the motion is perfect and the rendition quite striking. The mechanics and physics of the wave formation, left of screen, is in tandem with the explosive energy generated afterwards shown when the wave commences to fold in a dynamic motion which seems to alert the birds to fly over. This take is alive and has enough contrast to satisfy the most demanding critics, the...
