Older Bridge

Comment:
I love the greyscale old quality to capture the subject of stones in this bridge. The cropping (or original in-camera composition) seems to truncate the top of the stonework of the bridge, distracting my view a bit. Lovely photo.

"My Covered Bridge"

Comment:
Us covered bridge folks share a common interest in things past. I love the dark silhoulette against a beautiful sky. The landscape, unfortunately, is quite dull. Perhaps, less land with a closer angle upwards? Still, a better catch than my own covered bridge attempt. Best of luck.

A bit too much underbelly darkness and not enough sky for my preferences in composition. I do like the diagonal bold lines though, and focus is excellent. Dramatic!

Love the landscape silhoulette! Sunrise? The various tones of pinks in the gradient across this shot captured my eye. The horizon of the field seems slightly tipped down from left to right. Picky picky. A beautiful pink capture.

Great Silhoulette! Color gradient works well, as does the composition. 10

Aperture

Wow! Quintessential "light" photo. Congrats on the blue. Our household was cheering for Zoomers tonight.

Aperture
by Zoomdak

Comment:
Your photo leads us as viewers through at least five different light openings, 1) the atmospheric aperture (clouds); 2) the geological aperture (rock formations); 3) the physical aperture of the human body (man's legs); 4) the technological (tripod & camera); and 5) the optical aperture (the unseen eye of the photographer, and eye of the camera). The interplay between the disc of the sun contrasted with the diamond of light formed by the photographer's legs & tripod are brilliant. Clearly evident also is the intensity of focus in the man's stance, to get his large frame into the eye of his camera to do what every photographer attempts to do: set the aperture to capture the impossible, the speed and beauty of light! I love the overlooked shadows of resting birds resting atop the rocks, one to the left and several to the right. An extraordinary photo! 10

Perhaps the lighting of the globes would have been more attractive if there had been no flash, but only a longer exposure with a higher camera angle. Just a thought. Cool location to capture this challenge.

Light on the Lighthouse at Cape Trafalgar

Comment:
Emotive photo. The absence of light shining from the lighthouse takes away from the potential power of the shot. Sometimes though there is only the photo that is before us rather than the photo we had hoped would be before us. Good luck.

I would have scored this shot higher if you had cropped out the distracting building in the lower portion of the frame. Beautiful dawn photo.
