Very strong composition, beautiful silhouette.
The hint of sidelighting increased its interesting factor. Perfect for framing and display on the wall of a game room or something like that.

Beautiful ... the diagonal is very attractive to the eyes. Even the the black sucks a lot of energy, the sun, the orange and the diagonal composition are strong enough to counteract this 'black hole.' (This is quite a feat because in a weaker composition, that 'black hole' will really catch your eyes and keep it there.)

And happy valentines to you too! Love the framing and the border. Very appropriate.

Beautiful portrait! I love the expression you've captured, sort of curious and teasing ... her interaction with the camera is so spot on that when your viewer looks at this, it is as if he/she is also interacting with your subject.

Beautiful explosion of colors!

The image is quite jarring because you just don't expect the bottle to be there. Diagonal composition is great here ... but it is a little bit static because of the centering of the bottle. But a thought provoking image nonetheless.

While this portrait is better composed and has better lighting etc. than the previous one, the emotional impact of this one is lesser. The other one is really thought provoking. This one, in itself, is quite superb but if you put the two together side by side, this is very safe. Safe is good, but thought provoking is better :-).

Very provocative subject ... but very beautiful and tastefully done.

Coneflowers are my favorite flower subjects. I like the Fibonacci spirals in its conehead which is very well depicted in this photograph. Beautiful isolation from the background. The bee is the icing on the cake. Man, you have quick reflexes.

Suuwwweeeet! The dew, colors and details are such eye candy. One of the few situations that centering works.
