We need the health and safety folk out for this one. Clear story here and good composition - vertical ladder and horizontal wires.

Lots to see here. An interesting perspective which is what this competition / exercise is all about.

Nice idea but I can't see enough detail on the statue to get a full feel for what it is a statue of.

Good edit / crop that emphasizes the subject. Well done.

What an interesting shot. Great combination of components here.

Love the View

Adam773 says:

Don't you get an interesting perspective on things when you look up?

What an interesting building. What has happened at the top of the shot - roof not fully in the image.

Interesting! Where was this?

Good shot but I would have preferred to see the top of the wheel in the photo.

Great shot. Fabulous sky. You certainly get a good feel of the day winding down and relaxation ahead.

Bring the cattle home
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Great shot. I love the lines - I always like lines!! The composition is very clever - the figure on the left leads the eye to follow his path into the shot and then the eye is free to move right and left along the margins of the fields so that you soak up the image and the colours. Excellent.

In the Fields
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Wow! Fabulous shot. What a place to live! Very dramatic composition and depth to the shot. Remote rural area captured beautifully. I love the figures 'at the edge' in every sense.

Goatkeeper of Nepal

Adam773 says:

Great! Isn't the air clear in the mountains? It makes the image jump out at you. Super composition and vivid colours. Great sense of depth with the mountains climbing up high in the background. I like this shot a lot.

Dhampus on the Annapurna Trail
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Another super shot. The composition creates a great sense of depth to the image. Does the sun on the foreground draw attention away from the rest of the image? If it were cropped to reduce the amount of vivid colour there would it improve the shot? You would lose the nice bit of wall in the foreground however.

Along the Path
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Super composition. The direction of the figures leads the eye to their distant destination. Great palette. Excellent shot.

Rural Twins

Adam773 says:

Great perspective. Love the colours. Looks very cold. Great composition.

Great sense of space.

Spring is coming
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

I love the lines in this shot - the swoop down of the field and the trees 'marching' up in the other direction across the image. I keep looking at the hedge to the left. I have held up a piece of paper to get the feel of what it would be like without that there. Can't make up my mine whether it would be better cropped out to emphasize the lines and curves.

Further away in the fields
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Great shot! Very suitable candidate for black and white treatment due to the contrasting tones. The texture of the roof and walls compliments the texture of the rocks. I like this one a lot.

Old Rural House

Adam773 says:

I like the depth to this image. It has 'volume' which makes a shot stand out.

Adam773 says:

Lovely simple lines and curves. Nice shot.

Hay Time
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Ah! Tuscany I assume with the lines of trees. Lovely shot - great sense of space due to the height and looking down. I also like that the colours are a little subdued not over saturated.

Val d
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Moody atmosphere to this shot. I like the light catching the trees. Would the shot be better with the road cropped out. Might that give the scene a more 'remote' feel.

Dolomites
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

I like this shot. The path leads the eye into the image nicely as it takes you to the rocky crag. Where are you with these shots - where in the alps?

(5 years and 448 days ago)

the little valley
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Lovely sense of space. Might the image be stronger if the crag to the right was cropped out leaving the focus on the more dramatic stack central in the photo?

the mountain shelter

Adam773 says:

Nice serene image. I like the stones in the foreground that add interest to the shot.

alpine lake
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

I like this a lot. The subject is clear and there are no incidental distractions. I keep thinking would it improve with a great depth of field but probably not. The shining scoop and the jar are central and sharp. The mind does the rest - it knows what we are looking at.

Oh Nuts !
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Wow! A brave photo. I might well have hurried on and not turned back. I think I will eat more veggies from now on. Its a challenge because of the content but as an image it catches the eye and gets you talking and thinking. Its not everywhere that meat comes in nice sanitized containers with cling film seals.

The Butcher
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Super photo. Lots going on here. Quizzical looks from the lady cooled by the fan; customer trying on a hat; shop owner anxious to make a sale. Good composition with figures going diagonally across the image and lots of colour and shapes. I like it a lot.

(5 years and 456 days ago)

Hats R Us.

Adam773 says:

Yes - I agree. Lots of fun and interest in this shot.

How many kilos?

Adam773 says:

Nice study of the stall holder. Its a pity the two sets of hair blend into each other but a great study of character.

Good atmosphere to this photo. Dedication in the faces. Lots here to see and enjoy.

Fruit and Veg for Sale
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Really good. Concentration on the face and focus on the task of cutting the meat is very good. It brings the image alive. You can 'see' him cutting the meat.

Adam773 says:

Super angle of this image. You get a whole different perspective of the market. Nice interaction between stall holder and customer. Good image.

Great shot. I like the interaction between the two stall holders. This tells a story. I like it.

Adam773 says:

Aren't markets colourful. This shot really does capture those colours well.

Fruit and Veg market stall
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Love the colour combinations here as well as the stacks of loaves. I think the shot would have been better taken 2 paces to the left so that the girl was not partially covered by the pole.

Bread stand
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Would this have been better without the edge of the shelf and the sign. maybe change the angle and shoot the stall straight on. Interesting image.

Local Produce

Adam773 says:

Nice shot. Has the saturation been overdone - its something I am guilty of and try to watch that I don't 'overcook' the colour.

Harvest Time

Adam773 says:

Love the colours and brightness of this image. Lots of different textures and shapes. I like it a lot.

Colourful market
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Not sure what the focus of this shot is. Markets are notoriously difficult to capture - too often they just look too busy and lack a focus. This shot has lots of detail but no focus.

Athens old town
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Lovely portrait. Great skin 'tone' and fabulous eyes and great use of light. I am one for symmetry so would have preferred to see more cropped from the right of the photo to put the face central in the image.

Great colour combinations. Rather a sinister effect but very dramatic. Well executed photo.

Sunset Lake
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Great shot. Very well composed - the dark of the hills holding up the clouds and a great flash of colour between the near bank of clouds and the ones in the distance. Where was this taken?

Above the Clouds
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

I too love this image. Great warm colour; super horizontal lines (I like horizontals!); but the photo is 'made' by the spindly vegetation reflected in the water to create those interesting shapes. Your eye wanders all over the photo looking at the details. Very well done.

(5 years and 459 days ago)

Nature
avatar Adam773
Adam773 says:

Rather an abstract effect. The image is well composed but I would have preferred the points of interest to have been sharp throughout.
