This is one great abstract, my favorite in the challenge in that field. Wonderful variation in textures and the two tone palette works will here. So many nice lines. I hope it does well for you as it is a very engaging piece.

Wow! I love landscapes that manage to use the whole frame with thoughtful light. This is it. Good job. 8.

The Happy Smile Hidden behind Her Hands

Okay--you know how to frame a shot, but this is more... it is a mastery of the moment. It's using the correct color palette; it is using a sense of depth; and mostly--it is a touch of humanity. Nicely done.

Hands

Comment:
The light on the subject (hands) does it for me. But I feel the compositional elements (cars) on the left just pull me away from the shot. Not enough to reduce you from a score of 9, but something that prevents perfection.

Hickory and Hornbeam

Good light, scary trees, it all adds up to a good score. I know hickory, but I'll take you word on the hornbeam. Cheers.

Such a good abstract. So good.
The descending black square/circle/head.
The play of light and dark
The bucket.
The hard cut of light.
It is really a piece which keeps you there.

But I'm torn with the grain...it's harder to justify these days; I would be curious to see what it would looked like with reduced sharpness/clarity so you get the same effect just without the noise.

I'm still giving you an 8.

Hydrangea in Winter, Hie Jinja Japan
by noraneko

Comment:
I like hydrangeas. I enjoy detail and the color blue is so soothing.
Blue hydrangeas are better than the pink ones anyways, but I like that you still have some color on this one in winter (must live southish). Good job. Gave you a 7, likely higher if the blob on the bottom left were removed.

Everything is good here except that poll on his right arm, actually I would have liked to see more of that arm. It knocked you down from an 8 to a 7. But this is a tremendous shot.
