Very clever. Would have liked a lot more DOF!

Nice lark. It could have scored a lot better if the pixels were interesting.

Bang, zoom - straight to the moon, Alice! (launch of the Dawn spacecraft)

The shot has potential, but the composition feels so dead. You could crop it to the lower right 3rd (you don't need the full rocket trail) I think and get a much better shot.

Wow, that's a lot of DOF for f/2.8. The focus is a little forward, but the eyes still look detailed.

I would say "almost perfect", but then again I'd have to pinpoint what isn't perfect about it and that's a big challenge.

Interesting shot. A bit unsettling, actually. It's usually not a good idea to place a person in a position where you cannot see where they are looking or going. The story surrounding it (Gloria Jean's coffees) doesn't answer the question, and actually poses more of a problem since he doesn't look like a typical coffee house customer.

Otherwise, the composition and texture are very compelling.

Great shot. I would have liked to see some motion blur on the wings to make it more dynamic, but that sounds like me being a nit since it's so difficulty to capture what you've captured already. I wonder how long an exposure could be made to achieve it without sacrificing sharpness.

And the Future Lay Before us

First, I think this is a fantastic shot. Great story with the photo and very technically well executed and composed.

If you get a chance, you may try to frame it from a higher vantage to get the water line at the top 3rd instead of the bottom. I think that shot would have a bit more impact and put the opera house on a higher plane.

Tiger jump - desat
by ShutterPug

Comment:
The composition really throws it off. It needs the selective desat to bring out the tiger, whereas cropping the left third of the frame would really make the picture dynamic. I think it's a great capture.
