  2. The Tree stump and the one of the duck are my two favorites. I think you hit the tonal values right on. I would maybe, a big maybe, but see what would happen if you burned or dodged the duck to make it stand out, or maybe try a mask over the water. I just feel that the duck kinda get's lost in all the shadows and highlights of the rippling water. But, still deff my two favorites!

  3. great contrast and burning and dodging in all images. the wall with the drawing is one of my favorites. another one that is very strong to me is the tree stump from top view. the second duck image has wonderful texture and detail. you might be able to darken the darks just a tad in that one. the airplane one is almost there, just try to remove the halos around the figures.

  4. I really like the one of the building and drawing, very interesting. I love your contrast and the sharpness of it looks good too. How do you get those squirrels to sit still for you? I love your animal pics too!

  5. I think my favorite is the 2nd one because of the old fashioned and sad look it has. It works really well and you did a good job with the burn/dodge tool. The next one I think is really strong is the plane photo. The lighting is great and I can tell that you did some dodging on the worker, which was a good idea.

    I would try to work with the burning/dodging on the 3rd one because right now, everything seems to blend together. It would be better with higher contrasts.

  6. I love the one of the drawing you found on the wall. It almost looks like it belongs in PostSecret or something. I love the texture you captured with the second tree trunk shot. You use a good amount of contrast in all these shots..nice job :)

  7. Great contrast in all of these photos. They all look great! The only thing is that sometimes the water and leaves are a little distracting, and those shots look a little too busy. Great job taking pictures of animals!!

  8. Your contrast in your photos are always super dramatic - I love it! Nice work on all of these. I feel that your first, second and fourth photos are your strongest of this set.

  9. I love the detail on the duck in the first photo.

    I see that graffiti in the second photo almost every day!

    I also really like the high contrast on the photo of the plane.

  10. I love your photos.
    The 4th image really catches my eyes. I love how detailed it is and it really shows the texture of the wood.
    The 1st image is very crisp and sharp. the reflection of the water is nice.
    the 6th one, maybe crop out the left part a little bit, and put the focus on the Golden Mean.
    :-) nice works!
