good barn find. It seems a little... overexposed maybe? I would probabaly crop out most of the sky and darken the image some.

Nice old barn. I think it could have been worked more. Not the nicest angle, sky is a little washed out. Looks like there would be a lot to experiment with around this structure, and the lighting would have been nice for textures on the wood.

Exposure isn't the best - the washed out sky doesn't help the subject to pop - kind of static composition that doesn't do much for the viewer. Nice subject.

Nice action capture. Would like to see from a little lower angle.

Way cute, the stretch of the duck. I think lower might have been nice, but you would see less of the little fellow's leg sticking out the back, which is a key part of the photograph. A little clockwise on the subject would help, but I like the way it is. A touch of saturation would warm things up, but still quite pleasant. Thanks, Sonoma.

The best thing about this photo is the exquisite soft texture you have captured - very lovely.

I think the colors are very vibrant. I agree with the above comment in regards to the white in the background. Maybe it could be blended out. Otherwise, very well taken.

Its good as it is with me, superb

I love this one. Great colors and clarity. I don't mind the white pole.

Thank you.

Great colors and light! Super composition. The details are wonderful. The pole in the background adds nothing helpful in my view.

Interesting habitat shot, but the bird is a little contrasty, and would be nice to have the head or eyes visible. Possibly a polarizer would have made the water less reflective.

I like the play that comes in visually with the duck's leg. It wants to mimic the bill, but just can't quite... Nice work. I think the ripples are nice to the left, but I might have given them up for a little more balance. The duck's head is so close to the center that I keep fighting against it visually. I still like the shot though, thanks for sharing.

A little overexposed and so the colors just miss being great - they aren't bad, but could have been much better. You might have tried opening up the aperture to deal with a messy background.

The subject is very sharp. Good definition. That`s like me. The light on him create volume
But the final result don`t like me completle because several things. I think that the horizont is a little inclined and the B&W conversion hasn't been quite fine. There are no textures in the water.
I like to see the end of the sharp in the ground and, other wise, I'd change the composition with the principal subject in the right side.

Greeting!!

Interesting shot. The horizon could be straight, the subject in the middle doesn't excite me. The tonal qual8ity is excellent.

I think I would try and work a little with the contrast of the backgrouns. Seems a bit flat.

What I like about your pic is that the person has highest contrast levels, so my eye wanders to the subject. But there is not enough other interesting things in the pic to please me (yet).

An idea might be to work on the B&W conversion and to keep the light on the person, while the sea gets darker (and maybe gets more texture?).

A sraight horizon might be a good idea as well. And the person is a little bit too close to the center of the image, I think.

Happy shooting!

The subject isn't strong enough to pull this one out. The light isn't particularly exciting - not terrible - not great. The comp. is kind of boring with the subject too centered.

Soft and eerie. I like. He seems to be in the middle of saying something or like hes about to laugh. He has a look in his eyes.

this photo really has a lot of feeling in it, its almost as if the picture is alive. Its a great shot, although i think it might be a little more effective with sharper focus. But the lighting is perfect! Overall a really great shot!

A selfportrait full of expression. Works well in B&W, but I think the upper part of the face is really blown out (pure white) - too strong an effect I think.

Nice frame and composition but a bit too blurry I guess (the eyes for example)...

Overexposed and out of focus - comp is interesting and good.

I like the colors and the composition and the movement that the shot inspire.
The only two things I miss is a little more sharp in the up and the bottom and the entire imagen of the object (subject) in the up side.

Not sure I understand this shot. I think it is a flag, but I think it needs a hint of more red, and maybe a little more of the flag in the shadows. Nice try!

Interesting approach to be sure, but not exactly sure what you were trying to convey - what is the message here? The colors give a very strange effect to a familiar theme. Curious shot!

I love it. The simplicity of it makes it beautiful. Almost has a negative image feel to it. Seen many ice storms up close and personal and this makes a beautiful photo.

Prime I thought it was a negative because of the contrast between the sky the main branchs and the thin branchs I was wrong.
So I like the usage of negative space that increase the minimalisme of this picture

Could use a little more contrast, and maybe a little more of the tree

simplicity.yes.
but the color and dull tone.no
;-)

Very nice work and wonderful use of negative space with a negative image - just kidding. Well seen and well done!

Very nice. Great clarity. Nice composition. Interesting color.

Nice capture. Great colors, contrast, and beautiful exposure. The angle could be improved, as the wings are at a difficult angle. These are difficult creatures to capture!

I agree with trphoto, I would have liked a slightly different angle. I know these are difficult to get. great job!

Good points, my focus at the time was that the dragonfly mirroring the angle of the broken branch.

When photographing flying insects there are many factors beyond ones control. I think you controlled those things you could control very well. Nice photo!

Nice capture of animal behavior. A little high contrast and wash out on the log and turtle shell.
