Outstanding. Got a 10 from me for amusement value. Exposure on teh flower could have been improved but what the heck.

Great shot and the stark shadows and texture work well. The dark pine tree I feel is a bit out of place. It detracts from the stark feeling of the building and doesn;t add much because of lack of shadow detail. My also be worth experimenting with getting the sky totally white or totally grey rather than the current variable shading.

Anither great one. Wonder what he'd look like if you made the background near black

Great capture. Like the top down shot and the fact that you caught the raised tail like that. I wonder what it would look like if you eliminated all the flowers except the couple it's standing on and darkened the background to near black.

Great capture, nice perspective, lovely colours. Did this need much sharpening/added contrast. I was wondering what it would look like with a bit less.

This is a great shot. Wonderful composition and great moment captured. The bright white of the man's clothing is very effective. In terms of what would have improved it IMO - (i) A greater DOF to bring the girl into greater focus and (ii) dealing with the effects of the blue cast in girl's clothes and too dark color of the scarf. These look to me like effects coming from the girl being more in the shade relative to the man.

Well done for capturing a great moment.

Nice shot. Great capture and I like the way you put it together in a tryptich. I agree about the background being distracting but I like the portrait layout. Maybe you could mask out the extra background behind the truck (and the guy who is half visible) to black and liven up the color of the water.
