This is quite an amazing display of setup knowledge. I do not recall having seen a glass/water image which got the idea of movement inside the glass across as well as this one. It is as if you were looking at the surface of a pool, since ripples at the side of glass seem to be a physical impossiblity. Your use of ice is witty!
And the slight touch of amber really makes this shot for me for what concerns colours.

White Peacock

This is clearly one of my favourite images of those you display in your portfolio. I like the way in which the peacock seems to glow and spread a natural light. Your image has an evanescent quality: it seems as if this being coulod not possibly have come from that dark gloomy background, but must have been sent from "a better place". In fact, the white-black dichotomy suggests the image of an angel walking the earth. All in all, having seen the original, I must admit that you took this image to a completely new level with your masterful postprocessing, namely by dodging and burning.

You portray quite an impressive use of light and shadow in this photograph. To me the large black area feels very oppressing, as if it were the force which makes the model silent - while at the same time being completely abstract, remote, empty. It is but negative space, but the positioning of the face suggests that this emptyness, the silence is actually pushing the model out of the frame.

Reach

This image as been in my favourites for a few months now and I still like coming back to it at enjoy the way it portrays an everyday action. Not only did you take a pleasently different approach by cutting off the image just above the hips, thus leaving the action of reaching which one usually associates with stretched arms, out of the frame. You also managed to give it a very charming quality with your high contrast post processing. What really did it for me, I guess, is your use of vertical noise to echo the upward movement of the model.

A superb composition of a well captured moment. The sense of action is omnipresent, its force emphasized by the contrast. The hot colour tones make the impact perfect. 10. Adding to favs.

Some flaws at the right hand, you should have used a softer brush there. 8.
