The orange/black contrast stands out here. Very nice DOF and great detail.

wow...amazing detail...great color...awesome photo overall!

just one word : amazing

Wow. Great everything. Did you have to do a lot of post processing?

@snaps, not much... just a bit with the "Levels tool" in photoshop

the light is fantastic. great HDR processing. but i agree it would be perfect i the right corner wouldn't be cut off.

Muy chula,pero¿qué es la foto?.Saludos.

Wow, great shot and I'm not the only one who thinks so... This reminds me of Momo's staircase at the entrance of the Vatican museum.

Thanks everyone.

Great composition and colour balance. It's almost mesmerizing to look at...

wow! looks like a painting or an animation! very interesting!

Interesting processing here. A bit of Orton maybe? It does look like a painting. I personally find the trees in the background a touch dark, but that's just being a bit picky on my part. Nice image.

Nice image.
Not a huge fan of the treatment but i think the effect came out well here.

i like the shot and the color, i'd like to see it without pp

Interesting subject and great processing. Love the colors!

Nice shot, but I think it's a little too dark. I lose the chain in the background.

yeah, youre right. i did reprint it lighter but it is being critiqued by my teacher right now. Thanks for the comment!

i like this shot, the contrast is not a problem imo, i'd like to see it with a little higher crop

j'aime le rendu, on sent la rouille craquelée sur la chaine.

I love it, I love it, I love it! Do I need to say more? O.K, I do :)
A few months back I never heard of selective saturation, till I went to Vazaar. Now I figured out how to do it myself, I became a fan of this technique. And your photo... well... it's great! I make it a favorite.

Thank you Drkey and sfkp for your comments.

Great shot. I like the fading passers-by as much as the double phone boots. Great effect of the partial saturation.

One of the rare occasions where I like selective saturation - but I think it would have been better if you had pulled back a little on the red. It's a bit too bright red imo. But all in all it's a good picture...

Thank you Huubi and Stefan

The pose and the emotions on face of the model is too simulated!

i don't agree i like the emotion on the face

Well, imo the simulated pose is not bothering. Only thing that's a bit pity is the under-exposure of her face. But maybe it's just my taste. I also like the dress and hair who are almost becomes one with the background. Beatiful framing.

I think the pose and facial expression is ok here - but it seems to me like the picture should be rotated a bit clockwise.
And I would have liked a bit more light on her face as well...

Thank you...this is actually two yellow walls with a hallway between, it's just that by taking advantage of the angle it actually gives it a rounded feel. The various shades of yellow came simply from the lighting above.

I keep coming back to this image to leave a comment, so I guess it does do something to me :). Very abstract. I Would have loved to see it a bit more off center though.

yellow abstract interesting i love it (perhaps just a little bit too centered)

Very intriguing, you have a great eye!
I'm not sure whether I think it's too centered or not, the black line makes all the difference (as Nick says).
If you can go back to this interior, you could shoot it again and experiment with different compositions, maybe even a vertical format?
Also, it might be interesting to catch the silhouette of a person in the distance down the hallway - lots of potential for more great stuff!

good work!

unusual, very interesting, i like this shot

Nice comp - and interesting use of space and line. I like the textures you have captured - good stuff, Boyd.

Best,
Jon

Interesting composition!

i like this shot.
the subject and light are very interesting but i think i'd like it better if the subject were more off center

I agree that this is a really well controlled and presented image. The lighting is great and the details captured across the frame and use of B&W is very effective. I like that it is a shot in two halves with the road and building/water divided by the low wall. My only question with the composition is that the road and wall sort of sweep around and take my eye out of frame and there is nothing to draw me back in, but it just may be this tension that makes it an effective shot overall.

Just Wow. Nice shot. I like it just the way it is.

Very strong and good composition - well seen and well presented! Thanks for sharing...instant fave.

Best,
Jon

Excellent image. Beautiful tones and good composition.

I like it! The moon atop the spire is a great setup. I don't mind the lean...the weeping cherry on the left seems to be pushing it from the frame.

Can't say that I like the lean all that much, I like the way the top points to the moon but this could be accomplished on a level angle. Also, there is quite a bit of sensor dust that should be cloned out.

i don't know exactly why but i like this shot

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess this what shot at Kiyomizudera in Kyoto Japan? If so, I have almost that exact same picture minus the cherry blossoms. The only thing I would nitpick is the contrast and saturation. Looks a little flat to me.

Trés classique mais bien vu. La lune est peut-être un peu trop prés du bord.
Manque un peu de peps...
