The Name Of The Rose by Umberto Eco

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

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"

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

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.

"Where the Lilies Bloom"

Comment:
For me it's a little to grainy, though your angle and lighting is good. A more anonymous background would have helped focus attention on the flower as well.

Turkey, between east and west

Comment:
Niceuse of perspective, and good colors. From a technical standpoint, it's pretty noisy, and you should consider cropping out the vignetting in the corners.

Dark Industry

You've unfortunately been a victim of flare here. Even though it's 'de rigeur' these days, it doesn't really help your shot. The colors are wonderful though, but the horizon isn't very attractive. With these great conditions, another vantage point may have given you a better composition.

Overexposed unfortunately, unless of course you were going for a 'high key' portrait. If not, this can be easily corrected in post-processing.
