very nice-you have captured this perfectly-nice composition!

Nice but maybe I'll have cropped the top right of the picture.

nice skin tones. captured the emotion quite well.

i would either crop it a little on the right like cheguillaume suggested, or would add more to the right so that it doesn't look like it has been cut at the elbow.

i would also try not to have the whiteout at the top right of the image on the green door.

Nice job Leisa. Congratulations on the feature. I love that little bug lost in all that green.

Wow what a great shoot love the green in this one.
good work

Beautiful colors, great job.
Not sure about the black bars, a bit distracting.

opps sorry, posted it in the wrong topic.

Nice and simple.

I really like this shot, but I wish there was something other than a car outside the window. I think technically it's very well done, though the subject matter leave a lot to be desired.

This is great. It fits the theme very well and I love that you can see the man stepping into the frame. At first I didn't notice him, but it's a plus that I looked at this again and found something new to look at.

I was hoping I would see it here also. I love this one!

(azt a képedet nem akarod áthozni az industrialos témába, amit a WS-en az ugly beautiful témába raktál be? az is nagyon bejött nekem :)

I like it as well. To me, what makes this image work is the tension between the old (window and iron) and the new (SUV).

Well I guess that you'll just have to expand your imagination a tad and imagine these two being the only two people on about a 2km long beach - which is the case here.

Sorry you could not infer that.

Finally it fits well...especially with the high contrasts....it is fading into nothing and I like this feeling....

You don't need to expand your imagination to know what solitude means, or are you redefining for us what alone means? You can't be alone if you're holding hands with someone...lol!

Actually, pschodudu, you are the one redefining the word: restricting it to a single meaning, when it has several. It could mean remotenss from habitation or a place unfrequented. So yes the TWO are walking in the solitude of the beach.
That said, I don't think this image quite conveys that sense of the word enough, though as Jens says, the fading to nothing helps.

@psychodudu

Sounds like you are the one using the word "Alone" in place of solitude. As an example ... My wife and I spent a fabulous weekend together in solitude...

i'm amazed, very effective capture, even the burn-out has its role. how is it not featured?!

What a gorgeous shot!

A great image. Perhaps if the figures were further to the left it would benefit the composition, but that's just me finding fault 'cause I'm jealous ;-)

i think the figures being in the middle adds to the symmetry!

nice shot!

at last. grats.

A tricky one to critique. The sky has some nice cloud texture and is a smashing colour, as is the sea. But as a whole the image doesn't really have an impact on me.

Cropping out most of the sand, except for the thinnest sliver to cover the bottom of the image, definitely improves the composition. And if only the figure was wearing a bright red or yellow tee shirt.

I can't really fault this photo, I just can't find much to say about it that is positive. Sorry.

Oh, I should have said that I do think is fits the topic nicely. So that's something good then ;-)

i like this photo-well done

I think some cropping both from the top and the bottom will make a stronger image.

I'm not able to see much "light" in this image... It feels mostly like shadows here, so I'm not sure how relevant this is to the topic.

I do like the simple minimalist pattern, though. Makes me keen to guess what this is.

thank you-i did darken the photo. the shadows are coming from buddhist lamps hanging above

its a bit dark and a bit muddy...i think u can rewsolve both issues using Shaodw/Highlight in Photoshop.

I agree with the latest comment :)

great compo, i like the mood in this picture a lot. i like that we don't see much of the little girl. i feel like i'm in that same bus that she is in.

@xzroxyzx: I WAS in the same bus ;-)

This is a beautiful image. Great capture.

Great capture with wonderful saturated tones; the only minor critique I might have would be with composition; for some reason I feel it would be stronger if the subject were more towards the right side of the frame.

I am going to agree with Eli and say that the subject would be really well placed on the right side of the frame. The reflection is also an interesting piece to this picture, though I wish the main subject did not bare down so hard on the reflection.

This is just me trying to give constructive criticism here. I think the image is very well down.

Is that a turtle shell?

thanks for the comments. much appreciated!!

this woman is actually making fresh indian bread on a handmade clay oven!

Wonderful shot, I like the way she's holding the bread and the bright colors within !
