I'm having a difficult time deciding how to comment. My attention goes first to the musician. I like the perspective from shooting close with a wide angle, how the instrument provides a leading line into the image, his isolation against the wall, and the fantastic colors. Then my eye goes to the person on the right - and my mind is challenged. What is this? Who is this? Why is it blurred? Why is it so different in scale from the musician? Its different. I don't know if its appropriate to a "National Geographic" type article, but in the right room, it would certainly be appropriate on the wall. |

Beautiful Scenery, excellent capture. I'm trying to decide if the horizon is level. When I look closely at the image, I can see how the primary rainbow arcs down and lights up the small rock formation right at the horizon. Pot of gold? |

I much prefer the second image - much nicer background. The "big" image appears a little flat to me - perhaps increase the contrast, but I can't tell if that's the case in the small one as well. I like vacation photos that show the locals going about their business in addition to the usual iconic shots of landmarks. |

The flowers are beautiful, and the diagonals and stairs make for a pleasing composition. Unfortunately, the diagonal leading line takes me up to the people at the top of the picture - taking focus away from the flowers. I wonder whether darkening the top of the image - especially the people, and decreasing the saturation and contrast in their clothing, would help keep attention on the flowers without needing to do heavy cropping. |

I like the composition, the smooth water reflection and the starburst from the lights, but might consider toning them down a little, especially the one on the shoreline just right of center. I agree with Peter that the horizon doesn't appear quite level, but when I look at the girders at the center of the bridge they appear vertical, hmmm. Would it be possible to bring out any detail in the blocked areas along the shoreline? I think that might help balance the visual weight in the image, which is heavily biased to the bridge. |

Interesting contrast between old and new architecture. Good tonal range. I find myself looking at the reflection of the old building in the glass of the new. Have you tried making that more prominent in post (and decreasing brightness of what I think are cieling lights which inside the new building)? Would moving right show more of the old building reflection? |

They were all shot at 1/30th, but I was panning with the Bike. The decision to stack was made after the fact. I would do it differently if I had it to do over. I still like how it turned out. Cropping to the bus would help with artefacts, but the bridge would read Quare Plaza. You pays your money and you takes your choice. |
