Very nice colors and textures in this scene. I like the layering of clouds: small patches of denser clouds hanging below the higher level of thin, wispy clouds with patches of clear showing through. Your composition is excellent to maximize the showing of contrast in this scene.

This is a one in a million shot! Reminds me of the great stuff that Galen Rowell did. Hearty congratulations to you... you're a true inspiration to us all! These awards are well deserved. Could I possibly talk you into sharing more of your technique in achieving this exceptional photo?

Nice crisp sihouettes Mary . . . and rich, well saturated color. Prefer this (myself) to the lavendar skies . . . though I know others would disagree. Something about it feels more realistic I guess . . . Excellent work!

Nice journalistic photo.Great capture of the fire, with the smoke spreading out in to the sky. Makes one feel hopeless to see it. The newspaper needs to see you for this story and pictogram with the fire fighters.

Wooow!! This image is awesome. The detail is beautiful and sharp. I don't even like bugs but I can keep my eye off all the darn detail. I just can't stoop looking at it. Perfect.

I like, interesting colours and light
The layers into the distance, very nice, a dream
I'm not to sure about the upper right, it's, I can't think of the correct words. Or is it something I have no idea about, is it natural, a cloud. I do not know.
Great photograph (I like)

wooow another great shot and perfect timing...
I have never tried to make these shots, it certainly is difficult.
perhaps it is slightly underexposed, but I think even the cloudy day was hard!
all the best

Hmmmmmmm ". . . test upload" according to the about section. That calls for a "Test Critique"!
The lighting in this image has been done very well and I especially like the diffuse nature of it and the fact that it gradually descends into a darker, almost vignette style corner shadow. The shadowy area behind the object offers a pleasing mix of shadow and reflection . . . with the tonal range coming through with almost textbook variation - The cherrywood(?) is nicely saturated with an appropriate amount of color and the reflections in the hour glass give virtually no distracting views that would cause a viewer's eyes to be distracted from the overall composition. The brass accents and sand balance the range of light values and the minimal composition seems to be just about perfect with a pleasing touch of balance by the off-centered object and a higher and leftward shadow to off-set the alternate interest points along with the "rule" of thirds guidelines.
Since this IS a CC image I should point out that (IMHO) the white signature line in the lower left is really not good for this image . . . it's . . . you know, . . . a tad distracting. I would (were it mine) prefer to see it almost melt into the BG and likely make it a tad smaller as well.
Overall though . . . Nicely Done . . . !
"Test Critically" Yours,
Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

This is a wonderful image here, well balanced by all means, the butterfly in its original colors and with enough details, the back ground do make the Necessary Separation allowing your subject to atract the viewers.
Thank you my friend for sharing it with us and Wishing you all of the best.

Caro amigo,
Lamego and the Douro River are fantastic spots for
photographers. The so called Douro Vinhateiro is a
UNESCO World Heritage site and in the fall during
"vindimias" there is an explosion of colors. I'm
from Moimenta da Beira, closed to Lamego and the area is called Devil's County ( terras do demo) a
monumental granit formations where we find pre-historical setlements and tumbs.
Whenever you are in Portugal let me know, will
forward some "advise". In this case I will post some more photos from the Douro river and surronds.
Best regards
José

Interesting photograph, maybe if you were passing there one day,again. It looks similar to a human head(thumbnail-view), it's missing the nose and mouth. The correct piece of cardboard(or object) at the correct angle, would create (an addition shadow) to the upper shadow of the circle,(but then again it already has a face). The face looking into the shadow of the forest (maybe it's the incorrect spelling of the word Forest, trapped(in imprisoned) in their own mind). I guess portrait view(not landscape view). I guess it's already a person(the shadow), all shadows disappear from view. layered blocks.......... it's just an idea :)
Great photograph(so 7+)
Nigel:)

hello gregory
when i see his one my words was "Oh My God...."
your country is so far away from my country, but this one, this mountain are so equal a those that we have in Valtellina land... above alps !
..
this is the example that our great mother earth was fantastic, she has created everything slowly, and everywhere in the same way.
it's really a shame that human beings have the arrogance to want control over nature !
now i search my photo... best wishes!

ps: a relly nice crispy panoramic land...

This image is not just rich in color, contrasts and in its simplicity as others have mentioned, but the caption in my opinion actually enhances the total impact of the photo itself. It shows how a well thought out photo with a near perfect caption, Road to Nowhere, can make a dramatic statement. I can see this photo with caption as a greeting card in which parents for example, can give to their high school children with the not so subtle message "Get a great education or you may risk going down a 'Road to Nowhere'. Ok, for some that message would be overly dramatic, but the main point being that a good or great photo with a GREAT caption can make for a powerful message!

Those are very dramatic clouds. They are both foreboding and appealing at the same time. The gray tone of the buildings nicely mirror the gray clouds. This is a dramatic scene. Well taken and presented.

CONGRATULATIONS on this well deserved award Ali. An excellent still life study thoughtfully composed with each item an antiquity posed alongside a fresh pomegranate which in itself is well established 'ancient' fruit. The theme is great, the detailing perfect and the tones superbly accurate. Very best wishes.
