Thanks, Don. I agree with your comment about the water at the bottom. |

What a transformation! When I looked at the original, the lily seemed blown out and without much detail, but you were able to preserve the details. Your exposure and clarity are outstanding and the contrast of the deep blue sky is great. Technically well done. I keep looking for a focal point where I can rest my eye, though. |

Wonderful image! I agree of your choice of converting it to monochrome which really emphasizes the shape and form of the dancer. Your details and clarity are wonderful. I also love her shadow and the lines of the floor. I wouldn't change a thing. Excellent! |

The tips of the stamen are tack sharp, but, like Don, I would like the center to be shaper. I find macro flower shots to be very difficult. I do like the translucent quality of the petals. I would suggest cropping the top just below the white spot in the upper left. That bright spot pulls my eye from your subject. |

Oops! My bad, the title was submitted as Track and Shadow (not snow). Great details and exposure. You managed to keep the snow from being blown out. I like the simplicity of the subject and congratulate you for seeing the possibility when others wouldn't see it. The curves of both the ice and tracks are very appealing. |

Your clarity and details are very good and the cloud reflections are well captured. For my taste, I like straight lines in architecture shots, so the lean of the building bothers me some. |

I really like the converging lines in this macro shot. I agree with Ed, that the original is sharper. I also think the color version adds more tones, givng the image more depth. |

The road takes my eye right into your image. The exposure and focus (especially the branches) are great. I wouldn't have known it was a cemetery if you hadn't told me. My only suggestion is regarding the composition. I think having the road in the middle and the horizon often in the middle makes it a little static. I flipped it and tried a different crop. |

Another flawless action shot. Your shutter speed is right on (as always). Exposure, focus and composition are perfect. I wouldn't change a thing. You nailed it! |

Love the leading lines and contrast. It has interest. The only thing I would suggest is to crop half of the tracks at the bottom. |

Excellent image! Your monochrome treatment was the way to go with this scene. The S curves and tones of the mountains are perfect. This is a real winner and I can't suggest a thing to improve an already outstanding image. |

A different type of photo from you and it is very well done. The exposure of the mountains and snow is handled well and your cloning was perfectly executed. I love the clouds or blowing snow that "crowns" the mountain tops. |

I prefer the mono version, as well. I also like your exposure and composition (there's a nice balance). I couldn't resist playing with the sky; giving it more structure and contrast and burning the building just a bit. What do you think? |

Wonderful blurred background that really sets off the thistle. You have a great nature story with the bees and beetle. The tilt of the stem and flower really adds interest. |

Great shutter speed in this image. You effectively stopped the action with nice water spray and bubbles. I like the arm in the shot, especially since the water dripping down the arm has such a nice pattern. If possible, can you tone down the brightness on the fingers? |

You did a great job of keeping the details of the whole flower, which I find hard. The color and exposure are both very good, as well. My only suggestion is to drive a different, not so centered crop. If you keep it centered, I would zoom in closer. |
