Hi,
Nice warm colors here, it looks really cozy. I like the old radio. Is this your home? About the composition, it's a little tight for me, 5-10% more around the edges would give a more relaxed touch to this picture.

Oh, I'd love to have your camera... I've really gotten into TLR's lately. Is C3 the same as C330? I thought they had a square format.

Nice shot, I like the strong colors and contrast and the fog really gives a nice mood to this shot. Feels like it's november already. The blown out sky disturbs me a little though, because it gives sort of a toy-camera vibe, which the rest of the photo doesn't have. It's not that I don't like toy-cameras, but for this photo I think it would be nice with a crisp and balanced exposure. Maybe it's just in post-processing?

Thanks for sharing,
Simon

Hi Alex,
The wide-angle effect distorts the shape of his body, it looks sort of weird, can't decide if it's good or bad. I like your simple composition, although the wide-angle perspective is subtle here I think it would have been boring taken with a tele lense from a distance. I like the colors too, everythings grey except the boy.

Nice, sort of original picture. I like that everything in the picture is more or less grey but the shoes very dark, almost black. The composition is nice with the legs really close and the alley disappearing into blur.

Hi,
Nice mood in this picture, I like the softness and colors. I get really curious about the face of the person. The blown out background definitely adds to the mood.

thanks for sharing,

Hi,
It's really nice how you froze the water with the really short exposure time, it makes it look even colder somehow. It would hve been nice if his face was more visible, on the other it looks like he's really struggling to stay up in this picture, and that adds another dimension to this action shot.

Hi Sam,
Like what you did with the background, it serves its purpose and really makes the rose stand out. The little drops add a nice pattern to the flower, and I like how only a few of the leaves seem to have drops on them.

Hi Le,
I love what you did with the blue. The blue tone is wonderful. Of course the picture would have been nothing without the two silhouettes. I think it's important that there are two there too. But I think I would crop this a little different, and rotate it a bit to correct the tilted horizon. I will try to do something in a workshop.

Regards,
Simon

Hi Jorge,
Strange effect, taking a picture of a flower in the dark with flash like that. Is this at night or indoors? There seems to be no ambient light whatsoever. This bud looks sort of unfriendly with thorns and all.

Regards,
Simon

Hi Leon,
I like the effect of the magnifying glass, it looks like this is taken with a holga camera or a lens baby. I'll have to try that some day. The light also has a strong effect since there are some very bright reflections and some chromatic aberration. Really nice shot.
