This is very nice panning work. For this theme, I think it would have been okay to let the bus show some movement, as well. Those crisp blues and reds would look nice as streaks across the frame.

Great panning! I love taking these kind of pictures. They take work to get it just right and you did a awesome job with this one.

Nice colors. I'd seen the bus left to right (unstead right to left) (except in England, sorry !)
Maybe in "stop the motion"

Really nice photo. The blur in the back is just enough. But it isn't distracting at all from the bus. I really like it!!!

Very well done! Great capture and very well seen.

Best,
Jon

super work, looks like it come straight out of a glossy lifestyle magazine!

This picture is framed perfectly. I love the lighting and the color. PERFECT!

Fantastic Hi-Key commercial look! Other than the rest of the glass...it's perfect:)

I agree about the whole glass being there, but what a classy shot! Something very 80's about it too :-)

Nice shot,High-key,minimalism. A photo for a magazine.

Very nice photo. I would like to have seen a bit more of the reflection of the flower. I also would have liked the flower not to be cut off at the top. The details in the petals are great.

The picture is indeed very sharp and detailed. Only thing as said above is the cropping that needs some tending to. The reflection is a critical part to show an additional texture in the frame. Very nice processing and lighting indeed.

Nice detail in the flower petals. I like the angle and the lighting too. IMHO this photo would go from good to great if the flower wasn't cut off at the top. Love the reflection. Maybe take the pic again with a little more of the reflection showing too?

As rblue85 said maybe with a little more reflection it will be better.Regards

I like it the way it is. Only thing, IMHO, if you could remove the distracting dark marks on the main petal on the left. love it.

One of your best. Excellent work!

This reminds me of Jerry Uelsmann photographs, an inspiring photographer from my younger days.

Thanks, Tony. I'll have to google him

beautiful detail and shadows, really atmospheric image, almost like a fantisy landscape

wow.. this is so rich with things to look at..

Thank you ! Good idea for Minimalism topic. Don't know finally if screws have their place ?

Awesome shot. I love plain, simple shots, so well done! If I was to change one thing, maybe have the screws 'centered' - they seem to be about 1cm over to the right. I think you either need to make it symmetrical along the horizontal, or have it far enough away from symmetry. Hope that makes sense!

I'm okay with your last idea. Too much blue if i understand...

A real gem. I enjoy photos such as this and the technical perfection of this in a mathematical sense is outstanding.

nice one. i like the symmetry. nice colors as well.

The look on the kid's face is so powerfull, its almost disturbing. I like the way the lights dim around the face. The hand doesnt actually bother me, but I think the image would look even better either without it or with the other hand on the same position on the other side. Great picture!

Thanks Andre for ur comment ;)

The facial expression is so strong that the hand is not distracting at all. very lovely :)

Very kind, thanks for ur comment ;-)

great strong portrait. really nice light and detail in the eyes paricularly

Thx so much for the positive comments!

Oh, BTW this is the Puget Sound.

Nice shot. I would crop a little from top to shift the horizon from middle point. Great colors of dawn.

Great shot indeed, the lone paddler make a very nice effect. I agree that some sky could have been cropped, and I would have liked the figure to have the exact same distance on the left than on the right, but it's really because you requested criticism :)

look like there is a bit of handshake.. but I like it

love the greens and the idea, nice clarity to the shot and I like the focus being on the ring, do wish the hands were a bit more relaxed and the shot was not quite so close in..... overall lovely though

Love the shades of green...agree with msdedi about the hands... all in all though a great photo, nicely captured!

Apt shot for the topic. Agree with the shot being too closed in. Still works for me as I love that bracelet!

Wow, I love everything about this picture. The detail is just great and I really like the composition. I had to really search to see if the was anything I would change. The only thing i could see is between the bicep and the torso the background is gray instead of the white below the arm. I think I would have tried to make the entire background one color. Overall great picture!

Left bottom corner is too bright.

philippe posted an image like this in WeeklyShot, which was *amazing*, this lacks the definition of that one, and colour. It's missing something...like a blob of blue for example...

This is a great idea, but I agree with psychodudu it seems to be missing something. Maybe one drop of different color water or different colored lighting, just a suggestion.

i stared at this for 5 min-trying to find a hidden message, i agree it would be more striking with a dash of colour!

that's a funny shot !
a little more sharpness (or contrast perhaps)would have been better to me.

Thanks for your comments it just was an experiment and i would like to know what others say to that.

I really like this picture. The contrast of the white flowers on the black background. The detail in the petals. It's all great. The only thing I would have changed is try not to cut off the flower on the left.

Really nice photo. I like how they tulips guide the eye all the way to top of the photo.

Beautiful use of black and white with the flowers. I've been trying to do some of this but just can't master the knack of the black, the gradation in tones and the brilliant white. This is an excellent example for me to study. Thanks!

Simply beautiful, I love the diagonal balance of grey to white to black. My only comment would be the rather strongly defined shadow outlines. For me, softening the shadow detail just a little more would make this a perfect 10. Again, beautiful.

Fine picture!
