Nice composition, and an excellent choiuce of framing to suit the subject. I'd be tempted to run this one through NeatImage though to clean up that noise.

The Sword in the Stone
by moodville

Comment:
I know that you're probably trying to play by the 'rules' of composition here, but I feel that this one would have been stronger if you'd placed the sword right in the middle. The detail is great though, and I like the use of DOF.

Sun-Tzu, "The Art of War"
by Zal

Comment:
I could be horrible here and suggest, to paraphrase Sun Tzu, that if you are not strong then you should not go on the offensive ;) I'd like to see more sharpness in this one, as the idea is good. I'm not sure if that high key background works, as it has the effect of softening all the edges.

This is a good interpretation, and a nice simple stufy in form. I like the muted colors, and even though it's a bit busy it still works.

The Name Of The Rose by Umberto Eco
by Shannon

Comment:
Nice composition, though on my monitor it;'s a bit dark and I can't see as much detail as I'd like to. In fact, it's so dark that I didn't immediately identify it as a rose.

The Red and The Black
by Michaels

Comment:
A very nice interpretation of the subject, and a bold color study. Exactly what the title deserves.

The Lamplighter
by lbWhaples

Comment:
You really need to include a lamplighter to make this one work. That lamp looks like it hasn't been lit for centuries. Composition is good, and it you're going for a historical feel the choice of toning is also good. I would suggest straightening the verticals and a little bit of unsharp mask to bring out more detail.

"Bell, Book and Candle"
by SMW409

Comment:
If it weren't for the good use of lighting this one would have been pretty dull. You managed, however, to get good shadows and highlights. Looking closer, it may have been more challenging to try to conjure up something to fit the title of the book you used here...

Prospecting for gold
by Pop_in_Oz

Comment:
Nice colors. Unfortunately tbough, the foreground (i.e. the thing which relates the subject to your chosen book title) is a bit too dark so the whole thing loses impact and relevance. It's possible, however, that shadow detail could be recovered using contrast masking - or you could have used a graduated neutral density filter when taking the shot to darken the sky and reveal more detail in the foreground.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer´s Stone

Comment:
Are the white oval reflections part of the image, or just reflections? This one is a bit flat - it may have worked better if you'd set it up in such a way as to create more of an impression of depth. I'm not sure that B&W suits this one, because there isn't a great tonal range. Given that it's a recent book color would have probably been more appropriate anyway.
