Yucky sky never makes for good pictures. Framing was appropriate to minimize it, but it never goes away. Needs some color for visual impact.

this seems just a little underexposed and maybe not lit quite as well as it could be. Good picture, but I think reaching a little for this challenge.

Reflections

Your horizon seems to be running uphill a bit from left to right. The seagulls are too far away to make a case that they are part of the subject matter.

Well framed, for the size of the shot. The aspect ratio is a little strange it seems to me any way. But its a pretty nice job, especially with the framing of it.

Heat

The large black area in the bottom right really throws the balance of this photo off and breaks the conitinuity established by the flame. Great colors and action in the flames. With something else on the bottom to add a little more interest and a little less plain black, I think you could get away with having something on the bottom.

Excellent reflections and patterns in the reflections. Nice job with this shot and good luck.

Great Miami River- Hamilton

HOT HOT HOT. I think that really says it all. This needs to be taken like 2 or 3 stops down. Show some of the colors of the scene. Dreary doesn't equate to boring, but you really have to do it right to get the effect the voters are looking for.

Grate Expectations

This needs a little more dramatic lighting or something to give it a little spark, pardon the pun. Its not as clear as it should be either. I think actually having the fire in here and speeding up the shutter a bit would better represent this grate and fireplace.

Quality just isn't here with this photograph. Doesn't look like the best day to do this shot either.

The hot handrails on the bridge are totally distracting. Good theme to this picture, but I think its a little too dark and maybe a little oversharpened. Something just doesn't seem right here.
