Ponce de Leon Inlet Lighthouse

Lovely, vivid colouring on this. The angle and composition really emphasize the size of the lighthouse. The only thing I don't care much for is the border (the drop shadow distracts me) but I'm not taking off points for that.

This has the feel of film; I like it very much. The grain and vignetting fit. Very interesting and unexpected subject - excellent choice going with black and white.

Absolutely stunning. Gorgeous colours and fantastic clarity. I also like the angle of this quite a lot. Beautiful - 10.

The photo itself is good, but I think this is one instance where a neutral background takes away from the subject a bit. If the woman stood out more from the background, or there was some dramatic lighting or colour, I think it would help convey more of a sense of strength. Just my opinion :)

The Long Hard Road Behind Us

I like this picture quite a lot, but am not fond of the selective blue toning. It makes the child look a bit.... Smurfy. All over black and white, or perhaps a mild sepia toning, would have done wonders, I think, especially considering the tone set by the title. The composition itself is great, and the focus seems nice and crisp.
