The idea with the different colors of light is great, but it doesn't show much. Maybe it has to do with white balancing?

Very clean (well..) and interesting!

Congrats on the silver, and very nicely done. I thought i commented before.. that sounds like a lot of light, how was that set up? I only see shadows from light coming from the right.

Just stole the bronze from you in the last day, sorry for that ;-)

The color transitions in full view are spectacular!

Very nicw effect. I like the repetition between the clouds and the tree, and between the shadow and the houses.

I agree with Siglov. On the composition: I think a portrait orientation would have worked much better here. I can image the donkey's eyes in the bottom, looking up, with a line behind it dividing the area in grey and black.

With some postprocessing (curves) you can create a little more contrast. This could make the bird stand out more from the background. You might even try to remove some contrast from the water. If you like to, I could help you explaining that more detailed. Also your crop is very tight. It leaves no room for imagination where it is flying to, or where it's coming from.

Gorgious colors and i like the repetition with the rocky background. The bit on the top is maybe a bit too obvious, minor point.

Apart from the ring, the ad is stunning! Very beautiful, I love how you 'hid' the fingers in those gorgious lines! I'm not so happy with the text though, but it is after all a photography contest :-)

Looks almost like a film poster. Pretty cool, I wish the lettering was a bi more readable.

Love the feeling and the composition but there is no detail left in the shadows and most of the pearls are completely blown out :-(

The reason i would never get into bird photography would be that I'd have to call all my photo's: 'bird'. If have no idea of their names :-) I maybe would call this 'great bird photo'.

He does look tired :-) Very nice, it could have used just a bit sharpening.

That's just beautiful! I love the yellow with the blurred green. Great composition too.

They are sooo fast. I see them almost every day in front of my window.

The black of its feathers don't stand out much from the background, some selective editing could have done that. But it's got such a cute beak :-)

Nice lines and colors. Some dodging/burning around the black part of the beak could have made that stand out more.

Breakfast of champions... the best writer your 'cultureless' society has ever brought forth.

I like the composition, but the lighting is a bit flat.

I really like the composition, but the B/W conversion could have been done much better.

Nicely done and beautiful background. Where do the mirrors come in??
