Very good photo. I actually have a guess on who's phtoto this is just by the style. It wouldn't surprise me at all to see this in the ribbons. Good luck 9

I would've changed the toning to a definite sepia on this one. You're most of the way there now. I'd change the frame a little to by cropping some on the right side and a little of the bottom.

Hot hot hot. Maybe the weather, but the picture is overall too exposed. Needs to be less bright and that would yield better colors and better definition of the textures in the sand.

Need a focal point to this one. This looks like a reasonable backdrop with no subject.

Mired

The placement of the boat in the frame seems too high up. I like where it is in regard to left or right placement.

This is a great subject, but its a little too straightforward for my tastes. I'd like to see it at a little bit of an alternative perspective. I think the biggest thing is is that it is taken from too close of a proximity. step back a little and find something that has some interest besides the water. Good thought, just a little bit plain for me.

Good framing, awesome color. I like this photo a lot for this challenge. It really concentrates on one of the four elements and doesn't try to cram 2 down my throat. Great sharp silhouettes and a good theme and mood 9

THis needs to be bigger so we can see what's going on. the crop should be a little tighter too so there is minimal bare black space in the composition. Great subject for a macro tho

The Wind and the Waves

Good photo. I normally like the skies really blue, but the darker sky adds some contrast to the water. Needs something to provide a little more impact and give a definite focal point.

Fire, Flower (earth), and Water (and of course air!)

Title is too long. Looks like you have some little while specks around the bottom of the glass. The color added in is pretty vibrant but why not use a more colorful flower too? Just curious
