I like the way the texture of the land blends with the mountains and clouds in this image. The dark below and light above theme carries from the overall view of the shot to the individual clouds.

Hello from the Critique Club

First Impression is OUCH!

Technically, Sharp, a little shine on the back drop, but otherwise ok.

Composition, I would have perfered the shot from a different angle, probably not possible. Could have had a tighter crop.

Editing, can not really tell if you did anymore than desat.

Overall, this reminds me of photojournalism shot, would do well in the local paper.

Best of luck with Olympic shooting, that must be very exciting

Ni1ce shot but tones a little bland which is a shame as it's interesting compositionally.

Wow, he (and your processing) has my attention. The peach fuzz on the side of the face keeps him cute.

Such fantastic eyes, and you captured this without resorting to burning the edges of the iris -- or if you did, it's admirably subtle. A beautiful portrait.

Ouch. What a drag. This is a cool stop action photo, but I would suggest playing with the camera settins more next time to maybe turn the ISO up and keep the flash off so you don't have such a distinct look of the typical on-camera flash that so many people use as a crutch these days. Even if the noise was increased, with the mono conversion that usually helps make the picture look more realistic and normal.

Stumbled across your portfolio -- you have some great photos. This one, for example -- it's really "simple" in a way, but it is beautiful! Keep up the great work.

Like the petals on the ground with the very hyper looking hound. It looks like he is trying to let you know that he didn't do it.
