I'm actually going to be a bit harsh here, I'm not feeling it. Seems like you were going for moody/gritty, but this scene is too all over the place and unfocused, yet the subject matter is a hard to see unattractive skyline. I also don't like the tonal difference between the dark grey sky and dark blue forground.

Just my opinion.

4/10

5/10

Great clarity and focus and detail, however the image nothing for me otherwise. Maybe more negative space on the right side of the image would make it more pleasing composition wise

taken on a very foggy morning during an inspection. I was at midspan and this was my view in both directions.

killer shot i love the leading line u created.. the B&W is nicely done and highlights are pleasing.. only nit pick i have is mabe making this a landscape orientation rather then portrait.. the leading line i think would be more distinct in landscape 8/10

I like the lighting and the over-exposed look, but I'm not too keen on the composition. I think there's a bit too much background and the model's a bit small in the frame, and I don't think the background's particularly interesting.

I'm only giving it a 6/10 because I've seen a lot of your other work and it's really excellent, and I don't think this photo is to the same standard as a lot of your other shots. Looking on your flickr, I much prefer the more recent shot of the same model standing in a river. For me that's a much better shot than this one. Also your motorbike shots, dancer portraits and the M3 with the motion blur are amazing.

Good composition and mood. I like the green and the light at the bottom. 7.5/10

Really like the tones and the lighting. The floor and the wall look interesting too.

8/10

While it's pretty creepy, it's very well executed. Nice comp! 8/10

Solid 8/10 I love the use of the warm bokeh balls and the box goes along with the xmas vibe. The shine is a little strong on the bottles and obscure the writing in them. Also the right side of the box is very hot and it shows off that slightly folded corner of the box. But again I really like it.

lovely model and emotion captured lighting looks like a window very soft.. nitpick i have is the skin tonality of the face and arms... and the knee and forearm in the forground takes away from the shot.. consider cropping right above that and i think this would be a much more impactful image.. 6/10
