Hi Krisby,

Great photo, I love to overall photo. I think you should attempt cropping out some of the right side with with rock ledge. I think this draws away more than helps your photo. Another attempt on a day with a blue sky might give a better definition in the background behind the waterfall.

Thanks for sharing.

I like this shot... I think you did a good job with the composition of the tree and you couldnt have wished for a better looking sky. Nicely done.

Thanks for sharing.

Great Water shot, nice use of slow shutter speed. What shutter speed was this? Great clarity and sharpness. Could brighten a bit... Overall I would given it an 8.

Thanks for sharing.

I think this one would have been better vertically than horitzontially. My mind wants to know what the little fingers are doing and the table running vertical on the right hand side is kind of distracting. I would re-compose or crop it out. Also try desaturating the orange smock behind her, I keep looking behind her because the orange is so vibrant.

Just my 2 cents worth on this one, in response to the request of harsh critisism.

I do not like the amount of focus that is lacking in this shot. His hand in the foreground is soft, the shoulder is soft and the persons hand on his shoulder is soft. Maybe a slightly greater depth of field would have gotten rid of the cast and gave a bit better crispness. Also, I can not tell if it is the photo or the actual door but it looks like the photo is tilted slightly.

Overall compositionn is great.

Eschlar,

The eyes look good, but I feel the background is to much, My eyes are brought into the back before they come to the girl in the foreground. I would like to see this as a selective desaturation of the girl or (I do not know if this one is possible) leave the background but take the orange away from the kids smocks in the background. Do somthing that will draw attention more to the forground.

Bike Peddle

Its kind of difficult to make out it is a bike pedal on the railroad track. Maybe is you could have slightly raised the back of it so you could see it better, other than that it is a good use of your background pulling eyes in with the rails and overall good composition.

Thanks for sharing.

Hey Give,

Great Sunrise... Being in the middle of the counrty you get the best of both worlds when it comes to sunrise/sunset. Awesome colors. The only thing I find distracting about the picture are the jet trails in the sky. I think the sky overpowers the soft tree line.

Thanks for sharing,
Rich

Hi Xianart,

In my opinion, this shot needs to be taken at a slightly higher plane and angled down slightly so as if to be looking into the pile for a buoy. At that point I would blur out the background so the red shed in the back doesnt pull your eye away from your subject. Your composition for this shot is good, I like that you are not looking at the bin straight forward and the clearity is nice, but watch for blown pixels on the yellow buoys as they seem more likely to overexpose.

Just my 2 cents worth, Thanks for sharing.. Keep shooting.

Nice water shot, Beatuiful flow of water. Just my opinion, you should try cropping out some of the background. I feel that takes away from an otherwise beautiful waterfall.
