Reaching for the Sky

Comment:
Like a piece to a puzzle. Aside fromt that, there needs to be a little more clarity, and something to set the sky off. Maybe a cloud or two, and a less hazy look. A bright blue sky, a little more clarity, and maybe some nice whispy clouds would of certainly set this one at a higher rating. From my standpoint anyway. I hope this comment helps. I dont mean to be over-critical.

This one gives me a feeling as if I am staring a piece of a puzzle. I think the colors and clarity are decent enough, I just come away with a feeling of longing for more.

very busy, and it takes away from the subject at hand. Other than that, I don't really feel like it met the challenge as extensively as the rest.

Just the same as the rest is the only complaint I have here, there just really isn't anything that makes it stand out from the crowd.

aside from being a bit on the over-exposed side, the shadows are not exposed enough. The texture in the back makes it seem busy, and overdone. I think a plain white or black background with some heavily highlighted shadows would of been a ton more interesting. I hope this helps, I don't mean to be over-critical.

I dont think the technicals are too bad here, it just don't appeal to me. Im not a fan of the colors, and the picture comes across dirty. By that I mean the sky looks polluted in the upper left, and the twigs and limbs make it look dirty at the bottom. Of course there is a time and place for dirty, I just don't think it collaborated well here. I hope my comments help, I don't mean at all to be over critical. GL.

Im bumpin this one up a notch, but I still think that the definition is a little off, and I cant find the depth. GL

A very pretty light fixture, and I can see the relevence to branch. I just don't think it is a photo. Maybe if you would of drawn up closer, and gave it an abstract feeling I could of rated it higher, but it doesn't work for me in anyway.

The photo here is smaller than all the others, but not to the extreme of getting a low score. The low score comes with the lack of interesting subject matter. It may of been very pretty in person, but for me it just didn't transfer well to a photo.

Ok, this one slipped by me the first time with a low score, but Im gonna go ahead and bump it up a notch. Shadows and extreme light could of made this a better photo.
