You might be forgiven for thinking that there was a colour cast problem with this image such is the intensity of the orange on the water and on the boats. Must have been glorious to see in reality. I would suggest a crop off the background trees and also lose the bright boat one the right because I think the image still holds up without it. |

A powerful looking bird and I agree that you should try to open up the shaded area on the bird's chest. The bright lights in the background are somewhat distracting but it would not be too difficult either to clone them out or darken them. |

Strong lines in this image give you the feel of the strength of this structure. I would keep it as a colour image because of the strong yellow centre lines which help take you up and through the image to the oncoming cars. But I would crop in from the right to the first vertical upright to remove the somewhat glaring light dead space. |

Well captured. Certainly gives the impression of forward movement and having fun. His face is a little dark and pink possibly from the light bouncing off the inflated ball but could do with slightly desaturating and lightening. |

A cheerful chick standing on one leg with an unobtrusive background. Great shot of the bird but the strange nut bolt on the perch is interesting too. A good capture. |

Randy, this is an interesting image and a great record of a part of US history. I think it helps that there are two houses and I like the fact that it is quite a dark image. As a result I would slightly darken down the trees in the gap between the houses and the one on the far right. I like the abandoned feel of the image - but such a shame that a house is left like this. |

Michael, this shot works well for me in mono and I like your alterations. I would not crop it as suggested as I agree with you that this puts the silos too close to the frame's edge. Good work on removing the road. |

Linda, I really like this and the choice of mono works very well. The sky replacement works OK except I think for the windscreen where I don't think you now get the impression of glass. I also find the small cloud to the left a little odd and would suggest you remove it. The edge at the top of the hill just needs a little tidying up especially on the right. But you have given this car a new lease of life! |

Gerard, yes I can see the monster effect you were aiming for. This turns the bee into something quite terrifying! I think I would consider a slight crop of the base up to where the flower becomes sharper as out of focus base and blurred background make this quite unsettling - but maybe that is a good thing if it fits your original intention. |

Barbara, this is a tough one! Firstly let me say I think it works well in mono and the crop you have chosen tightens the viewer's focus. However, I think Michael sees more in it than I do even if it is a good record of urban architecture and urban life. I can appreciate it as a modern record of what was there but it doesn't grab my attention. So I'm sorry that this one doesn't do it for me and apologies for being negative. |
