memories of future

i love the looks here - the girl looks actuely interested in what the guy is thinking, trying to read him, genuinely concerned with what he has to say, and he has a look on his face that speaks of carefree afternoons spent just laying about, not contemplating whatever it is that the girl wants him to be contemplating.
for the style of odreiw specifically, the image is off balance with muted tones, drawing you to the faces of your human subjects, but with the legs raised in a defense manner telling you to stay back and not be drawn in, so you did a good job in the dichotomy that i find in his images - the push/pull and seeming intentional unbalancing of the viewer.
i'm giving this a 10

when i see this, all i can see is the monolith from 2001, and like it, this is an image that may cause some violent reactions from voters, while opening the eyes of others to look at the world differently.
well...maybe not the last one, but it will definitely draw some repeat viewings :)

this one made me stop, and truly take in what this picture is. i didn't even realize it at first, it was just so engrossing.
there is not an element of this composition that does not pour character and demand your attention to tell you tales.
i'm afraid that this will be overlooked by many of the voters (i sincerely hope not, i'd love to see this finish in the top 10!), but you're getting a fave and a wish-list check from me because i can't think of anything i can do on here to give higher marks along with the 10 that you're getting.

Alpine Autumn at the Lake

the composition of this image is it's biggest setback in my opinion.
it looks like you had a beautiful day (the touch of blue at the bottom, reflected in the lake), and if you opened this frame up to have some sky, with the lake low in the frame, and bring some more of the hills into view i feel it would have much more impact, where this sadly feels flat.

Moonlight river, the darkness is falling

Looks like a scene from a fantasy world. beautiful, serene, magical with a hint of danger in the woods around.
