Shades of Blue
by SamDoe1

Comment:
There are a couple of things that would have helped this image. First it would be nice if the blue extended all the way to the bottom of the frame. The glasses could stand to be in sharper focus. And finally, I think the shades of blue are a little to close to one another. It would have made the image much more contrasty with a slightly wider range of the three shades. All that being said, you still did fairly well in the challenge and with a little tweaking this could go from a good image to a great one.

wow, lightning shots are very cool but you rarely see them with a nice city scape as the foreground. The tungsten of the street lights contrasts well with the light of the sky. My only complaint is that it seems to be blurry on the left and right of the shot. Not sure why but not a big deal.

Well I don't see a tree but I suppose you already fixed it. Nice powerfull colors and almost unrealistic but, in a really cool way. Good choice darkening the sky to help make the flowers pop more. Did you use a small gradient filter up top to get that nice fall off? If so good choice, that's one of my favorite ways to add interest and dynamic to a flat background.

I didn't think about it right away but I've studied Doisneau's work a little and I completely agree with elee. Wonderfull capture of different and fun expressions and a good choice for black and white. Such a fun image to look at.

Very nice capture of expression and conveys strong emotion. Did you add the grain in post processing or was it due to a high ISO? Either way I think it really detracts from the shot and would do whatever you could to get rid of it. I certainly like grain in certain types of pictures, and I'm sure some people like it, but personally I don't think it fits too well with much wedding photographry.

nice portrait of a beautiful model but, this has nothing at all to do with photojournalism

Very cool shot but dosen't really have anything to do with the challenge. In this challenge the pictures should tell a story and I can't find one in this shot.

This needs a serious boost in contrast since as is, you have no true blacks or whites.

This is kind of a stretch for the challenge. A different title might have helped a little. If you know how, I would clone out the house in the background, it takes away from the almost mountainous feel from the rocks.
