Subject is blah. Image is mostly out of focus.

"Life and Death"

This is a boring subject. Your composition is okay but there is so little going on here that I just can't rate it higher than a 3.

Hard & Soft

The lighting on this could be improved. There is very little detail visible in the boots and the shadows don't work for this composition. There is some weird shiny white spot to the left of the boots that is very distracting.

Coming and Going

This is a rather out of focus. It doesn't appear that a lot of thought went into this set-up. The lighting seems to be direct flash from overhead which washes out colors and details (like the creases in the boot). The background is nice and simple but the subject is very 'blah'.

Good composition. Clever. The borders detract from the smoothness of the transition from white to black.

Blanes from the castle

Nice use of the stone wall/window as a framing device. Good color. Nice detail in the darks and lights considering the difficult lighting situation.

bad boy gets a time out

I gave this a five. The framing is decent (although without the title, I would have problems with the subject looking away from the camera at a boring shrub). It is a bit overexposed. I don't think black and white helps this image. For instance, if the boy had been wearing a colorful t-shirt it might have made a nice visual contrast with the neutral colors of the shrubs, walk, and bench.

First concert

I gave this a five. The composition is nice. I like the line her jawline creates in contrast with the black background. I would have given it a higher score but most of the image is unfocused looking.

WTC-Amish

Comment:
I gave this a four. This isn't a great perspective. Much of the visual impact of the blue and yellow sign is lost because of poor focus.That large section of overexposed sky creates a huge hot spot. The lower right corner has some distracting clutter going on also.

Water Breaking on the Rocks
by mirdonamy

I gave this a four. You are too far away from your subject, the breaking waves, to make a strong visual statement about it. What remains is a decent snapshot but not a great photo. You might try to get as close as you can on your belly to capture the waves in a visually exciting way. I live in a state surrounded by ocean (Rhode Island -- the Ocean State, natch) and this isn't giving me a visual sense of the power of waves breaking over huge rocks.
