I love the colors and contrasts of light in his photo, again I am going to say IMO (in my opinion) a small crop of the darker clouds would do wonders for this photo, I like the way it is centered. It just feels right with this photo. The red hues of this photo make it very warm and inviting.

I love all the contrasts of blues in this shot. It gives a cool feeling as you let you mind wander down the sandy beach that lays at your feet. I think the composition is well done especially with the cliff in the background that draws your eye directly to it.

Nice shot

The colors of this sot are beautiful, and are accented well by the cloud formations. I would only try a small crop at the top of the frame to remove some of the less exciting cloud forms. Other than that its a very nice shot.

Makka,

I have commented on the portrait of the studio test with your son, do you have multiple back drops or are you replacing the backdrop in photoshop. I am Also very jealous of this setup as I havent been able to setup a studio as of yet.What type of lights did you get if you dont mind sharing some info about the setup I would be grateful.

Thanks
Rich

I like the background coloration. I also think the skin tone is a bit washed, but better to overexpose in this situation and pull back some than underexpose and have noise. The only other opinion I have is not so tight a crop on the sides of the photo. Just my opinion but the shirt comes close to the edges on the side and it makes me think its a bit cramped. Awseome setup though btw...

I like the composition and pose of the dog. Your right the demeanor of the dog does speak noble in volume. Great sharpness and DOF. I like that each individual hair is sharp. I also like that the dog isnt looking directly at you. Great Portrait.

I have to say, there are alot of wonderful images in you portfolio. But out of them all this one speaks to me. I love the capture of movement over the wings and the glow of the afterburner. I would try to use selective color in photoshop to bring out the blue in the sky a bit more to contrast the plane a bit but this is a Awesome photo. Could probably make a mint off of it.

What type of lense were you using if you dont mind me asking???

I like the leading lines created by the statues in fromt of the building. The monochromatic(b&w in color) feeling of the photo is nice also. Very candid snow shot.

Reaching Out to the Sea

I like this compostion, I do not think the murkyness of the water takes away from the shot but adds a touch of mystery to the overall branch pointing out to the islands beyond. I also love the contrasts of colors in the water and sky.
