Sun Bathing

what I like:
the tubs make an interesting subject. I like the fact that they are all old an just sort of precariously thrown out (makes me wonder about their history as odd as that may seem). The girl in the tub - obviuosly there for humorous effect conveys that message fairly well.

what I don't like:
the girl is too far away and too small in the picture. It would work a lot better if the light was reflected more on her face than so bright on her shoulder. As it is my eye keeps gettign drawn to her shoulder. the feet could use a little better light too. The ground is really grungy (good) but the girls is a little too clean then. I think it would be better if she had been processed a bit grungier as well. Last thing is I'm not fond of the pony tail - just doesn't seem to fit for some reason.

10 Minutes 'till Nightfall

what I like:
Beautiful view and wonderful colors. the gradation in the sky is awesome. I very much like the fog rolling around the canyons.

what I don't like:
the line of the back mountain seems just a tad sharp. The thin dark line on the edge of the centermost mountain takes away from it just a bit. While it is a beautiful view I'd like to see a bit more of a subject - something I could point to in the mountains or sky that stood out a bit more. As it is I'm just not sure it would hold the viewers attention very long.

10 Butterflies

what I like:
Creative concept. from the thumbnail I was thinking tattoos - but I actually like the 3D butterflies better ;) They were well placed I think this is a good model for the shot.

What I don't like:
the lighting seems a bit hard. For something like this with delicate butterflies it would have been better to use more delicate lighting. It has a nice warm glow but is a little too bright on the right and dark on the left. I also would like it better if it was cropped a little lower. We can't really see her face anyway so if you cropped it right about where the shadow line is at her jaw I think it would have made a better study of form.

10 ways to see things... (10 spots on eyeball)

what I like:
Great depth of field. The color and the softness of the wings is wonderful. very interesting subject. Bonus for having him sit on a lens ;)

what I don't like:
It seems a little dark overall. I understand a shot like this is hard to light but I would have liked the eye a little brighter to really bring out the spots. The blur below it is a little distracting.

Seems like this may have been a luck of the moment kinds of shots. Nice catch.

The Modern Day Negative

what I like:
good idea, well executed. I hadn't really thought of binary for this challenge but it fits perfectly. clever.

What I don't like:
it would be nice to have a bit more depth of field so the top drive was more in focus. Are the numbers a reflection? In anycase the way they get smaller and seem to "curve" towards the bottom of the disk gives it a rather odd perspective making it seem as though the disk isn't flat. I also think the crop was a little tight.

He Loves Me / He Loves Me Not

what I like:
I like the flower and the set up - leaving the single petal was a good choice. The colors are vibrant and it seems well exposed. While the depth of feild is shallow I think it works well.

what I don't like:
I'm not fond of the mirror. while you have 10 petals the mirror confuses the image a bit. I also would have prefered a different colored base. With the yellow being nearly the same color as the flower it just doesn't seem to pop as well as it could.

Fun in the Sun

What I like:
this is a fun shot that looks like you and the "models" enjoyed taking. It's a neat idea and I like the setting.

What I don't like:
I think the contrast is too high in the picture. The sand is blown out in some parts and you're losing detail in some of the darker areas. Overall while I like the concept I think they could have been arranged a little differently to make use of the light and make it so their rear ends aren't quite so prominant.

This is a great shot.

IMO the shoes are out of place though and I'd like her feet to be completely in frame.

Lighting works really well except for the sort of harsh (compared to the rest) shadow on her shoulder.

This photo just oozes with sex appeal ;)

This is really great - the expression on her face really conveys the message.

The only thing that bothers me a bit are some of the angles in the photo. The easle tilts quite a bit making it kind of an odd angle. Also the assumption is that she's looking in a mirror but there is no indication of a mirror. Makes it feel a bit like a collage?

I really think the lighting needs some work and her elbow bluring with the DOF seems a little odd. Overall if you can get the richness of the tones of her left arm throughout the rest of the picture I think you'll really be on to something.

She looks great, I would have guessed early 30s.
