wow, great triangular compostion great use of light ballance and color contrast. the blue aginst the buildings and the sky is great. only thing negitve to say is in the top right hand corner the clouds are way out of focus but I don't think that is going to matter much, great shot and let me be the first to congradulate your top three finish

lol, love the dake on d and l and the picture is great. Nice use of b and w I think the only thing that will hold this shot back is the overall lean towards the darker side of the spectrum, that will make the ususers who don't have calibrated moniters see the picture as darker than it really is.

nice concept but this picture doesn't really follow the rule of thirds and that makes it come across as a snapshot and not a photograph

Darkness and Light

wow, stunning. nice use of line and shadow. I like the dof you chose to use and the clouds just bring the triangular comp together. I think this is going to take top three. Only thing I think will hold it back is there are 60 million other darkness and light entries...though this one is the best I have seen so far. great shot

lol, great pic and nice take on the d and l. I don't think this will be top three simply because it doesn't quite snap, but I like it and I'm giving it a 10

I like what your trying to do but the blur in combination with 80% of the frame being pure black just makes this not what it could be. Next time try a faster shutter speed or use a tripod

A Dock And Lake

Comment:
this is a nice idea for d and l but this just looks like a snapshot. Get closer to the dock mabey and get rid of that tree on the left and the leaves and the branches all over the frame.

Drugs & Liquor

very dark and grainy, but the "drugs" are blown out. I like your idea but I think you should have gone farther with it. work on the lighting and get a polorizer filter to help with that nasty reflection in the left glass

I have to admit, I love this compostion. I have been studing abstracts for about a month now and I just really like your compostion.
If you don't mind I would like to ask you a couple of questions

1. Why did you pick the squares, where every square is the same size accept one? Was this some sort of artistic expression?

2. How long did you work on this in photoshop? I have heard people say before that a good abstract takes either minutes or weeks, and I was wondering where this one feel into?
