52 Nov 18 Comment STUNNING! Such intense action. And you survived . Where were you when you shot it? On land protected by a structure? In a boat? I love the clouds, the light at the end of the pier, the churning water, and of course the bolts of lightning. The swaths of magenta sheen really add to the power and beauty of the moment. Nov 28th
52 Nov 18 Comment SPECTACULAR!! I love the low perspective and how the upper blossoms soar into the sky. The golden flowers just pop against that overcast sky. The clouds add interest to the sky. The muted green stems are very pleasing. I LOVE this image! Nov 28th
52 Nov 18 Comment Your image reinforces the importance of patience in nature photography. Is he laughing, waiting for a fish to drop into his mouth, or ??? The shape of the distressed branch and the detail in the lichens add great interest. I agree that the sky could be toned down, but I prefer the uncropped original version. The warm yellow brown of the exposed inner wood bottom left leads my eye up to a chipped spot under the bird's foot and then up to the bird's beak. All share color tones. Also, the stripped fragment of wood bottom left is parallel to the bird's lower beak. This is a great shot that reveals detail in a minimalist setting. Nov 28th
52 Nov 18 Comment I love this image and mystical place. The contrast between the brightly-colored flowers in the foreground and the warm fading colors in the background tell a strong story of the transition from summer to autumn.In your original image the bright sky pulls on my eyes. When I viewed Mike's crop my eyes relaxed and scene became even more magical. This would be a wonderful image to comtemplate in the dead of winter. Nov 28th
52 Nov 18 Comment In this image the grain (sand grains that is) is the star. (Sorry, I just couldn't help it). I love the angle of your shot and play of the light filtering down on the right. I too thought the sand pile was too bright. Tom's adjustments provided detail and eliminated the distracting glare. This place is fascinating. I have never seen anything like it. Does that sand flow for long periods of time, or did you capture a transient phenomenon? Where does it come from? How is it produced? The tumbleweed on the right enhances the dry and barren feel of the place. Nov 28th
52 Nov 18 Comment Wonderful image of a fascinating and majestic landscape. The black and grey clouds over the warm red rocks impart a surrealistic feeling. The rock contours, beautifully framed by the mountains on the left and right, lead into the distant mountains where the purple/blue/grey segues into the foreboding sky. It is amazing that the green shrubs can survive there. This image represents well the vast barren beauty of this place. I would not change it for competition. Nov 28th

79 Nov 18 Comment Karl, the soft flowing colors of your image danced out of the screen into my awareness at first glance. They are pleasing. After a while I was struck by the motion of the figure from translucent cool blue to warm red tones. I imagined a spirit frozen in adversity breaking free and dancing into the warmth of peace. And the more I study the image, the more I see. Wonderful image! Nov 27th
79 Nov 18 Comment Susan, in this image you have captured a "Rashomonesque" slice of life. All these characters share this space, yet each seems to experience the moment in their own unique way. Where are they going, why, what are they thinking? The contrast between the two main characters and their modes of transportation is fascinating. This is an image to be studied, and as I do so, I have the feeling that I am right there in that space and moment. Nov 27th
79 Nov 18 Comment Valerie, what type of tree is this? You have produced a wonderful and mysterious image. The branches bear many wounds and fractures. One wonders, who has been nibbling it, and what caused the strange angle of the branches. In fact, it is difficult to determine whether the branches are growing from the ground, or have been snapped and hurled into it. Upon prolonged viewing fantastical creatures emerge, and my mind ponders what might be lurking in the darkness. The white mat glares and pulls my eyes from the image. I would prefer a black or no mat. Nov 27th
79 Nov 18 Comment Mary, I love the black and white version. The model is at once blinded by the light and buried in the darkness. The swaths of white and black produce an abstract quality that accentuates the model's abstract expression. The texture adds a dream-like quality. The B&W version immediately grabs my attention and imagination. Nov 27th
