A nice study in how to present a scene. The third suffers from the gate / fence on the jetty, which blocks the view travelling into the scene. In the second, the eye travels freely down the jetty, ...

Wait! I know that bird. I’ve seen it before somewhere, but in less peaceful surroundings. It must be on holiday. It must be a Dam Bird, because it knew exactly where to place itself, a skill ...

I have seen similar electricians’ nightmares on my travels and photographed them too, but that Ian all I did, subject=tangled wires, background=whatever. You have taken it to a new level in three ...

Well done, you have taken the cover photo for his first album! Portraits in a low key as low as this one are rare and difficult, as there is a danger that the whole thing disappears into darkness. ...

Looking at this full size is definitely recommended, because the difference in sharpness between the gull and background is more obvious than the smaller version, and helps the gull stand out. Keep ...

The keyboard lying quietly in the foreground, with lots of other references to keyboard shapes throughout the photo is very cool. For that reason the B&W is my favourite, because it is a further ...

On one of the last warm days of late autumn, we found a nice beer garden on the shore of the Wannsee in Berlin. Sitting under yellow tinged chestnut trees, still with the last few ripe chestnuts, ...

Very striking colours and shapes, which are almost like the First Nation flag of Australia. Then out of the distance looms a strange obelisk and then AT-ATs. Stanley Kubrick? George Lucas? No, ...

Nice subject which with its mix of horizontals and verticals, straight edges and fluffy edges. Would also work in black and white. pete

These are four very interesting takes on the building. The first is nicely composed, with the dark “intrusion” top left adding a nice visual balance. The sky is attractive , with the clouds getting ...

The composition is nicely balanced and because it is triangular, our eyes are automatically drawn towards the top, over those lovely mushrooms. It is well exposed, with Details on the highlights ...

I agree with the other comments about the beauty, peacefulness and symmetry of this photo, so will just add an observation to that. The ripples are just catching reflections of the mountain in the ...

Whilst wondering what to post this week, I came across this ICM image taken in the local forest about 14 years ago and then a solarisation effect added in PP about 8 years ago, turning day into ...

It was a good idea to photograph this writing in the sky, especially with the low Sun. it is neat as it is, but agree with,others that a bit more foreground would be beneficial, if it wasn’t too ...

This is a wonderfully quirky scene. We see a neighbour of Toad of Toad Hall, Otter of Otterly Beautiful Gardens. He stands alone in the spotlight of the bright water. Actually I would be tempted ...

If your main point is the visual connection between the man in the white T-shirt on the left and the woman with the flowing black hair on the right, then I agree with Roel that you need to make ...

This is an excellent portrait. It is not just a random old man snapped on travels, but he, is animated and engaging with the viewer. His weathered face, his expensive but ill-fitting watch, the ...

Wow, that is quite a find. Much more interesting than a plastic bottle or a boot. Photographically it is good too. It is appropriately low key, with a patch of light revealing the skull, which is ...

The Version which appeals most to me is the third. I really like the awkward pose of the man with his contraption, maybe even falling, whilst in the background flies effortlessly by, showing how ...
