Terrific feel; terrific phallic nature of the shot. Looks like a newspaper shot that has aged.

The light is very flat here and the sky are is too plain. Might have cropped out the brick wall on the right.

Looks like some of the postcards they sell there, Modern looking wall is a distraction.

there is so much to look at in this photo I wonder what the subject is - I think it's the cactus - more contrast would help this, but would still leave me wondering what the subject was - 3

I think this image would benefit from some more contrast. It seems a bit flat to me.

I really like this image, but I htink it could be enhanced if it was a bit lighter, with a bit more depth to the shading and tone.

The stone wall doesn't add to the image and the tall cacti is still too close to the center of the image in that the area to the left feels like it is just hangin there. If you could frame the mountains with just teh two Saquaro's I think it would have worked very well. The grain is well done.
