Great composition!

I feel there needs to be more contrast in the shot, the washed-out darks make the brown horse too unrealistic.

Cromford Mansion, Autumn Evening

The center walkway isn't perpendicular to the camera giving the composition an asymmetrical feel when the composition begs for symmetry. I like the location. Brights seem too bright. Good luck in the challenge.

Quiet moment

Two things from me:
- The pier isn't square to the camera, the tilt makes me dizzy
- The bright patch in the clouds is distracting.

The composition is very nice but a different time of day and squared camera would have gone gang-busters for me.

Focus seems a bit off and I would prefer if the hand shadow was crisp. I feel (and this is subjective) if the game were on a white seamless it might have more impact, compositionally speaking.

Overall a very good idea for a photo and meets the challenge with a plethora of circles.

I like the term 'hand shadow', as in "I'm being followed by a hand shadow, hand shadow".

That appears to be a Penrod I see in that tube. I always get big static zaps when I go in those tubes, especially the slides - I could probably light a 30 watt bulb for 10 seconds after I'm done sliding. But enough of my ramblings:

Nicely composed and well executed! I really like the idea and you've done well with it. To pick nits I would almost say a snooted light +1/3ev on her face/eyes to make it pop a little, but I would have to see the final result because it may just make her fade into the greys of the tube, tonally speaking. My nit aside I say this deserves a place on your wall :)

Next time you use the tube it might be interesting if you brought some chickens and have them looking in all the holes on the sides. Although chickens can sometimes be unruly ... and they are the dickens to direct.

The doors to the hidden past

The floor is off by a couple of degrees and I would more even lighting across the entire foreground (left seems slightly shadowed compared to the right), other than those I really like the composition.
