Planescape-2

Comment:
I like the planescape, it appeases the geologist in me. A bit more contrast might make the image pop, it seems a little flat; the colors seem a bit muted as well, but that might be my (crappy) monitor. The plateau below left center looks like a discus thrower just after release the disc, with the plateau to the side being the discus. At least that's what I see :)

Cribbage

Comment:
For me I think it would help if the observer had a sense of direction, ie a reference as to where the pegs are with respect to the finish. I see this was the intent of the dof and oof peg nearest the observer, but it doesn't quite work without a reference point. Maybe a view with the pegs just on this side of the finish line, especially if the cribbage board had "finish" written on it. Then have a title like "Almost there" or "Two more to go" or some such.

Couple that with shiney pegs (someone else's suggestion) and see what the result is. Overall I like the photo, the lighting, the contrast.

(Edit for another title idea).

Took a second to recognize the bg as a kleenex box, may a little more dof would have helped. Great idea!

Simple and effective. Great lines to lead the eye across the image. Too bad the shoe didn't fit :( All in all something I would hand on my wall.

Nice sharp photo. For me a tighter crop would bring this shot together. 6

Cute cub, nice colors. A tight crop just on the face would have done wonders for me. 6.5 up to a 7.

Little Explorer

Nice capture. Maybe a polarizer to cut some of the glare from the bubble, other than that I like the expressions. Good use of "thinking outside the animal". 7

caged

Good use of the cage to capture the essence of "zoo". Great use of DOF. The skin and fur don't seem to have full tonal range, but that could be my (crappy) monitor. 7.5, rounding up to 8.

Captive Gaze

Nice capture, excellent use of the fencing to frame the (quite captive) subject. 7
