Illuminated Texas

I think this would have come out a lot better, if the globe was originally a more "realistic" looking earth color. I also think that the state/city names are very destracting.

I do, however, really like the low angle of this shot. I like the sharp focus on texas, and how it gradually fades out when looking at the other states. The stark, black background really highlights the brightness of the globe.

I like the background colors, and how the cactus reaches diagonally out. I think i'd prefer this if it was cropped above the horizon though, and just show sky.

Great subject, great layout. I'd be curious to know what this looked like without the levels pushed. I'd think it would look better. The sharpness of contrast I think detracts.

Absolutely beautiful. This picture looks like it was taken with a cheap digicam, but that effect really adds to the effect. 8.

I really like this, even though I think the picture could be sharper. 6.

I like what you were attempting here, but I think the execution could be better. I'd like to see more of the house, I think. 5

the colors seem a bit blown out to me. I do like the stark contrasts between the yellow and blue, though, I just think they could be a bit less "extreme"

I don't like the "blue" cast in this image, though I do like its rhythm.
