2 May 18 Comment I have to agree with Harry. We've all seen many images where a blurred background is beneficial to a sharp subject. But in an image that is totally blurred doesn't have a subject. Sorry, but I just can't get into this image either. May 10th
2 May 18 Comment I really like this image. The faded, streaked paint on the building gives an antique look to the structure. The fresh flowers add a newness and color to the overall subject. If I would make any suggestion, it would be to crop down on the image from the top and eliminate the green branch. That's a bit of a distraction. Nice job. May 10th
2 May 18 Comment I really love junkyards with old cars and relics. Rust is a great subject. However, this image is dominated by the tractor only. If it were completely surrounded by rusted hulks I think it would be a better contrasting image. Great saturation and color on the tractor. But I don't really think it demonstrates the contrast you were hoping for. May 10th
2 May 18 Comment I love the composition and the inclusion of the colorful clouds. The woman in the pink coat draws my immediate attention, however. The sun was quite well down by this time and my suggestion would be to saturate the color in the sky. I would also take out the lady as this is a distraction to the landscape. One could make two images out of this by cropping an image to include the lady and illuminating it a little more. The first image (with the lady taken out) could then stand alone as well. Perhaps brightening the image overall would also help along with the color enhancement. May 5th
2 May 18 Comment A great job on the building. The new illumination that you provided really sets off the architecture. Good composition, but it's a shame that the building on the left is so bright. It makes the eye want to wander down there. Cropping it out would really restrict the subject building too much. Perhaps "turning the lights off" in that lower building might help mute the brightness of it. May 5th
2 May 18 Comment An absolutely stunning image. Perfect capture - - sharp as a tack, muted background, great color, and even a catch light. Great job on this. I would not change anything. May 5th
