A nice memory photograph of a trip taken somewhere in Europe ...(those sausages?)

Night time / evening time darkness yet the image is sharp and we can see you thought about the composition.

Mobile Kitchen

You needed to tell her she was beautiful (and she probably was), although many an older woman shy away from the camera as they look their age (old). This kitchen has a nice warm feel to it, it feels like I've just come "home" and I bet the food was to die for. Nice and sharp and interesting too, not your usual "kitchen".

Good for you to see this...and to photograph it. Do make sure it is level. I think it is but just make sure...OK.

This is the kind of photo that makes one feel comfortable with those gorgeous colours and details shown. Could use a bit more marginal space on the left but we enjoy the image clearly.

An OH WOW kind of find. To underexpose is a good idea because you can bring out details in the final processing. A touch on the shadow/highlight lever would bring out small details. Nicely composed photograph. You do get around.

Good eye with this shot, a bit of a nip at the right but it is still very pleasant to study as it is sharp, clear, good contrast.

I can hear her...yada yada yada do it this way.... Nice action shot with story although it is a re enactment. No blow outs on white and full of white. I bet this would look great in monochrome as well.

Yes, dof has been softened with focus on main characters. Why did you not wait for the "photograph to be born"? Them chowing down would have made a more interesting shot, still I like this in b/w making it timeless.

Hello, really nice yellow colour (ahem, get it?) ...at least it's not a flower . My only hitch is that orange car protruding from the side, but it is what it is...had you stepped a little more to the right side you could have hid that part.

The Tilt Shift effect can not operate with such a view where the camera is at the same level as the subject.
For a maximum effect you have to take the photo in height, far enough from the subject and with a minimum angle of 45 degrees.

The story here for me is the choice of languages for the different messages. I understand that there may be things you wanted to exclude, explaining the very tight cropping, but I could have used a little more breathing space.

A very eye catching shot, full of patterns and so suitable for monochrome. Remember how in photography school we were told to not ever to shoot anything from behind? Well pffffffft to that theory (and many others). I like how the focus is not only on their derrieres but on the carpet. It is a crowded scene and is well done.

I laughed out loud when I saw this. I sure as heck would be afraid of these people....are you in Texas? Sharp and pointed, and I see one of the shooters looking directly at you. Colourful, humourous as all get out and why oh why did you cut off all their feet?
