Wel... Views: 1034 Photographer: Chaerul Imran Bakri Category: Outdoor Photography Camera: Nikon D300 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Not the most original subject but pretty well executed, you've obvious got a pretty good knowledge of photography already. Keep it up. Views: 1574 Photographer: Christian Lukey Category: Travel Photography Camera: Nikon D300 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Nice shot, an interesting subject that could be part of an nice photo essay to tell more about the story. Views: 4768 Photographer: Eric Bas Category: Travel Photography Camera: Canon Rebel T1i Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A great shot that with a little extra care could have improved. Views: 1002 Photographer: Albert Zurita Category: Travel Photography Camera: Canon EOS 400D Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A nice shot, with some very strong compositional elements, if not totally original Views: 1483 Photographer: Anthony Category: Documentry Photography Camera: Nikon D90 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Its always difficult to know which elements add to the story of an image and which ones are just outright distracting. This image in my mind has too many of the later... Views: 1198 Photographer: Lyndsea Heather Sands Category: Nature Photography Camera: Nikon Coolpix S230 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon While normally I like images that contain a human element I think this shot works very well without. Strong and bold shapes enhanced by the warm colours. Well done. Views: 895 Photographer: carla Category: Animal Photography Camera: lg lotus phone camera Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A lovely dog with incredible eyes makes for a great subject but I feel you've been let down by your choice of camera. Of cause if all you wanted was a snap to share w...

Views: 821 Photographer: russ goodban Category: Travel Photography Camera: canon eos 350d Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Lovely colours but laking in terms of compositon Views: 917 Photographer: shara Category: Adventure Photography Camera: olympus m 720 sw Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A strong moment that, for me, is lost with over processing the natural scene. Others may disagree on artist value. Views: 1011 Photographer: michael rothon Category: Travel Photography Camera: Nikon D300 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Very nice shot let down by poor exposure Views: 947 Photographer: becky husted Category: Outdoor Photography Camera: hp photosmart Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A nice scene with decent composition but let down by lack of contrast and detail. Views: 1115 Photographer: Eremei Category: Travel Photography Camera: Canon 30 D Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Nice composition, but for me it's let down by too much playing in post production Views: 825 Photographer: Jacek Jamz Category: Nature Photography Camera: Canon Rebel T2i Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A well spotted moment that has all the makings of a stunning shot, had the image been sharp I'd certainly have given you some higher marks Views: 1050 Photographer: shelby flaherty Category: Portrait Photography Camera: Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A nice little memory shot but lacks real impact. Views: 548 Photographer: Marcus Taylor Category: Nature Photography Camera: Nikon D300 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A nice shot. Views: 581 Photographer: Pat Hartley Category: Nature Photography Camera: Canon Digital Rebel XS Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Well done a strong composition and powerful image that I'm sure other pros would have marked you even higher. Views: 903 Photographer: Sydnee Moy Category: Still life Photography Camera: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX5 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon I think in you excitement you may have rushed this shot. While the subject has potential the composition and lighting lets the image down. Views: 559 Photographer: Pat Hartley Category: Nature Photography Camera: Canon Digital Rebel XS Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Another nice shot, where you've got the basics nailed. Well done Views: 575 Photographer: Sam McLeod Category: Nature Photography Camera: Canon EOS 50D Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A nice moment, with potential. It should be easy to set up again and try the improvements I´ve suggested. Views: 550 Photographer: Pat Hartley Category: Nature Photography Camera: Canon Digital Rebel XS Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A vast improvement in my opinion, I can clearly see progression over the 3 images you´ve submitted, I hope you can too. Views: 657 Photographer: Efrain Bojorquez Category: People Photography Camera: Nikon D3000 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A nice subject at a great moment shot with imagination, but your let down by the composition and exposure. Views: 554 Photographer: Pat Hartley Category: Nature Photography Camera: Canon Digital Rebel XS Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Capturing images of animals flying is never easy and you´ve made a good attempt, you´ve managed to get the entire bird in the frame, in focus and in reasonable ligh... Views: 606 Photographer: MICHELLE CROSS Category: Nature Photography Camera: Kodak EasyShare C182 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon I wouldn´t really call this a nature photography, if that´s what you were aiming for you´ve failed big time by poorly focusing with the resulting image with very l... Views: 517 Photographer: jason cower Category: Nature Photography Camera: sony cyber shot dsc-w80 Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A lovely scene, well spotted. However had you taken a bit more time and experimented a little more you could have achieved a stunning image Views: 603 Photographer: Irit Nino Category: Family Photography Camera: Canon PowerShot S2 IS Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A lovely moment, with beautiful light captured in a creative way. Well done Views: 843 Photographer: Pat Hartley Category: Nature Photography Camera: Canon Digital Rebel XS Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon For a portrait shot I think you´ve nailed it, well done. Views: 355 Photographer: Pat Hartley Category: Nature Photography Camera: Canon EOS 7D Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon A very difficult, but fun, subject to shoot. It's a good effort but there is room for improvement.

Views: 223 Photographer: Pat Hartley Category: Nature Photography Camera: Canon EOS 7D Critiqued by: Tom Bourdon Hi Pat, These types of shots are very difficult to capture well, having to think about composition, lighting conditions and exposure when you don´t know where the su...
