Red Sky at Night Sailors' Delight

Nice tones and an reasonable composition. It looks to be blurred due to camera shake though. The grainy (noisy) texture suggests that this was a long exposure and a tripod or other convenient support would have helped to eliminate the camera shake. Sometimes with longer exposures and the chance of camera shake it is a good idea to take several identical pictures and pick the sharpest one later.

What a shame it is so small! It look like an interesting composition with gentle tones but its so small I cant really tell.

This is the only image in the challenge that I don�t feel I have seen before. It shows creativity and lateral thinking. It offers a perspective of the world filled with emotion and devoid of complication. It fits its title with superb craft and is well executed too.

Certainly an interesting composition. The simplicity appeals to me, as it does with your other flower pictures. I think of the three this one is the weakest but I�m struggling to say why. I think perhaps it is the very light lower section of the flower that prevents my eye flowing with the curve. Perhaps if this part was toned down a little or even cropped off it would work better. The other thing is the fold near the top that touches the edge of the image, it seems to drag my eye from the frame.
Once again your use of light is superb.

A beautiful image, you have brought out the textures particularly well. The lighting is quite superb. I like the simplicity of your flower images, they are a refreshing change. It is the �negative space� that make this image for me, without it it would be just another, all be it very good, flower picture.

You have the most incredible ability.
I wanted to comment on some of your pictures but it�s hard to think what to say other than �Gosh, wow, amazing, beautiful� and I�d start sounding like a dork ;-) I�ll try and think of something more original as I go.

It seems you great work when you are bored � I noticed on some of your other pictures you said you did them because you were bored. Hale to boredom I say.

This is much better. I�m glad you were very subtle with the contrast increase, that�s all it needed. It has removed the slight greyness in the shadows on her skin and given it just the right amount of ping. I�d say its now perfect and should be left alone :-)

When I look at her face it makes me smile, it�s such a wonderful expression you have caught there! Well done!

I love this portrait, it�s quite beautiful yet piercing at the same time.
