a wonderful shot - well composed, exposed, and executed - the detail throughout is very impressive; what lens were you using?

a good photograph - the atmospheric haze gives it a feeling of mystery - the only suggestion I can offer, if you ever consider reshooting, would to shift left or right enough to either eliminate the shrub in the foreground, or have enough of it that it's shape doesn't ride the left edge as much as it does now - of all the great details in this photograph, that shrub is the least interesting - excellent work nonetheless

an interesting concept of disparate subjects - I don't know if this was intentional, but to see these two side by side it almost comes across as a comparison of transitory states - the smoke will dissipate, the flower will wilt, leaving the only proof of their once intimate photographic coupling here in the photo itself - great work

interesting use of complementary colors in this shot - the breakdown of compositional elements to simple geometric shapes, like the circle of the glass or squareness of the ice cubes, also help this photo as a whole - nice work

another great shot, rich with visual detail - perhaps a little tweaking with brightness/contrast would augment this scene with a little more depth - habiti a firenze?

wonderful photo - I really enjoy the vibrancy of the lights of "civilization" on the horizon - my only suggestion, if you ever consider revisiting this shot, would be to leave just a little more of that white fence intact near the bottom left of the frame - as it is now those two angled boards feel like leading lines that pull the eye to that corner when there are so many amazing things to see above

interesting shot - the canting of the camera really works, giving that austere gate a rather formidable presence - my only suggestion, if you consider reshooting, would be to leave just a little more sky space in the upper left corner where the spire cap gets cut off and the top of the chimney is precariously close to riding the top edge of the frame - good work

nice shot - I can't tell if the chimney is leaning or you'd canted the camera, but either way I think the perspective here provides a somewhat static shot with a dynamism that really draws the viewer in to examine the intricacies of this very unique chimney

great landscape work here - the toning gives it a feel similar to work done in the 1930's by FSA photographers like Lange and Evans

this is an interesting approach to capturing the skyscape - part of me wants to see more of the trees in the lower frame - also, if possible, I really feel this shot would benefit if you could wrangle some of those blown out highlight areas, as that's the first place my eyes tending to drift to in your composition, as opposed to the trees which, visually at least, I found more compelling - good shooting nonetheless

an excellent capture of a rather desolate urban landscape - I really enjoy the variety of colors here, such rich reds and blues that play against that gunmetal sky and earthtones in the brick building

I really enjoy the amount of detail you've captured in those intricate, radiating ripples of water on the surface - my only suggestion would be a tiny crop off the bottom, just enough to do away with that brown line - nice work
