Since Larry has given a very comprehensive comment, I shall not repeat him, just say that I support his comments. In addition, I think cropping out the building on the right side would give a better balance in the composition. You don't say anything about the camera settings, but an even longer exposure time would have given more even clouds and smoother water. This is, however, a matter of taste. |

I liked your story about the weather and what it takes to capture images under such circumstances. I think this image can be processed in many different ways, depending on what mood you want to express. I like it in the way you have done it now, but I would suggest to make several versions, f.ex. with darker sky and sea, but keeping the white waves bright. I would also consider removing the light poles. |

I am amazed by the effort you put into your images, but you are heavily rewarded! What I like most in this image is the use of warm and cold colours that compliment each other very well. On the contrary to Michael, I would crop from the right to get the lighthouse out of centre, since there is no symmetry, |

A spooky atmosphere around this image. You don't say anything about if it was dark or some daylight, i.e. is the house dodge or burned to get the effect. I like the way you have processed the image to achieve the dramatic effect. My suggestions for improvement is that the moon takes too much attention and should be toned down and the light rays could be removed. Secondly, I feel the house is too evenly lit. By using a dark gradient from the sides or a vignette, I think would enhance the drama. |

Yes, but only the lower part as the upper is OK in my opinion. it is just to give an impression of the surroundings. |

My main comment about this image is that it has too many objects and they are fighting each other.
If you make it square and keep the four flowers that create a triangle, you will have a better composition. I would also lighten the dark area in the middle of the flowers to show some details. |

A very good example of street photography. My feeling is that we are looking a young person with a rebellious approach, contemplating about life and the future. I like the way you have processed the image with good contrast to the background and good grey tones. I would suggest to lighten the black area on the right side slightly to show a little bit of details. |

I like the abstract approach you have chosen. The conversion into B&W is very well done. My only suggestion is to use the gradient tool to darken slightly the lower part so you get a tonal symmetry to the top and more attention to the middle area. |

This what we can call the decisive moment. I liked the "flying lady" just above the ground and the expression in her face. She is fully into the situation and I am thinking about what will happen the next few seconds. The camera settings are perfect with a sharp bodies and blurred background. Well done! |

This is a very difficult subject to convert into black and white since it is the colours that make the contrast. In B&W these contrasts are not so apparent. It is good to try new challenges, sometimes we succeed and sometimes not. In any case, it is an experience. In this case, I think the colour version is better than the B&W. |
