Nice angle and sharp details and I think that the sepia tone works well with the feeling of age from the architecture.

Nice playful portrait shot - I like the odd angle and the composition which seems well balanced.

A good composition with both heads in the frame like this. The lighting is warm and details are good. Slight niggle would be the distracting post in the background (although that could easily be cloned out).

An excellent shot to use the fractalius filter on - the yellow centres to the flowers give good focal points for the lines of "electricity" to flow from and to. Its a very dramatic and eye catching picture.

Welcome to TL
Very graphic shot - good use of the light and an interesting composition. Details are sharp and I think the use of b&w suits the subject.

p.s. as a tip going forward it's usually considered a good idea to put some info in the photographers note section, to give some indications as to how or why you too the shot.

Well lit, interesting composition and sharp details - looks like this experiment worked very well

Nice timing to capture this scene - definately a case of being in the right place at the right time. Colours are a little muted and details could be sharper, but with shots like this sometimes the opportunism supersedes the ability to get all the technicalities right.

Where to start......
* the composition is poor - no contact with the eyes, only seeing one face
* the sky is badly overexposed
* the colours and skin tones are flat
As Richard says, its an exploitative snapshot. And with 10 pictures for every 1 critique you're not exactly entering into the spirt of TL as a community are you?

Nice composition with the water leading the eyes to the windmills, and where you see an unfortunate cloudy sky I see some nice drama and contrast for the land.

Nice natural and relaxed pose and expression and the sepia tone works well. The skin smoothing does look a little unnatural and too "plastic" but then again as a fashion shot if this was the effect you were after then its worked.
