lots of detail, great framing of field and sky, nice sight lines - well done

Normally I would think the tone mapping (i presume?) was a bit too much, but with this subject I think it works really well..

Love the view and angle here..

Wonderful angle. I agree with Brandon that it might be a little too over-processed, or at least looks like it. Also, it's a bit too much of the same grey for me. That said, it still is a striking photo.

Very cool shot, nice clearity and colour. Good DOF.

Through its unreality, this shot conveys something of the magic of the game of baseball - very special image!

Best,

very dramatic, nice toning. I'm not that satisfied with the grain and the lack of details of the mountains in the middle of the photo. But it's a great image nevertheless.

nice drama and atmosphere here...great contrast

Thanks folks, for the comments and the feedback! I added the grain intentionally, because it shrouds noise that was already present in the photo. So I thought the effect worked very well!

Gorgeous and dramatic shot. This is my type of shot :-)

Lovely treatment. Stunning image. I just wish the crop was a little more wider, it would have taken me there :)

minimalistic, nearly abstract, great contrasts. beautiful!

I agree with subjektiv- I like the graphic quality of this image.

Nice use of positive and negative space

This works well. I like the lines created everywhere, the framing is spot on and the color is good. Not mtuch to critique, but a very nice image.

Works really well. The shadow is so crisp. Everything works for this one.

interesting perspective - and a great shadow as well. the only thing I'd have erased is the strange shadow in the top right corner.

This is just a great photo. I wish it had just a little more breathing room in the upper right. Great capture!

Best,
Jon

The glowing colors of the two girls are just perfect. I really like how you've selected them and their streamers as color which really makes them stand out nicely. My only nit pic is that it doesn't fit the theme description "A frame within a frame. Could be window frame, a port hole, or anything that frames the picture in the picture." But there's been debate on the title of the theme and the description of it are kind of two different things.

I like this photo too love the girst expressions and color on B&W I think it's good! My critique is pretty much the same as SUBJEKTIV the right had side fence behind the girl in the pink sweater, however nicely done!

thanks all.
it's out of my window at my workplace.

I love the colours, but there seem to be a few places that could have been B&W as well, a small red bit at the right, but also the green door in the background and part of the fence on the left. Overall, a really nice picture with really bright colours, which I like.

Very nice shot - a little blown out on the right, but really evokes the happiness of childhood. Nicely done!

Best,
Jon

Damn! I love this!!!

cool shot. - and nice haircut. ;-)

defenettly i like it

Great!:)

Nice usage of the broken glass AND the scarf.

have to agree: more sharpness and a bit more contrast would have been nice. but it's a fine shot - not easy to take.

not much more that i can add to what has already been said.

Thanks everyone. Before I print this I'll hit it with the unsharp mask again.

This is nice indeed. I wonder what the halo over his head is. Is that from the background? or is it reflection from some glass? (It looks a bit like that to me). I really like the colours though.

Nice shot. Color is a little drab, bit I didn't have an issue with the sharpness. Nice.

I like the colors and bubbles...its fun. Makes me smile

Wow. Wonderful.
I do have to agree about the comment about the placement of the green leaf. I think it would make more of a statement if it was closer to one of the sweet spots - probably the upper right.
Love the colors and the bubbles! :)

i like this photo-i would also love to see it without the bubbles

here is the color select wunderfull. good shot!

Very pretty. Sharp details and cool colors. I like the bubbles.

I love shots like these...but like doilyboy said, I would add just a tad more light.

what a face! I'd also like to see a bit more of her hair, but it's an impressive portrait.

Worn minds in contrasty bw, it always works, isn't it? The task is to show this mind through the skin, and you did a great work here. Great shot.

great portrait.

Perfect, I wouldn't add or remove a thing. Great capture!!!

@elijah, makes me want to drink whiskey!!
