I like this post for the tilt effect of your lens...with the sweet spot being in the center on the horizon. Your creativity shines with this upload...monochrome and then that pop of red button making a strong stand in that all important grid line. Personally, I would have loved to see all in sharp focus however I do like your artistic license as well.

It is the symmetry of this upload that draws the eye. The elements within are organized in a balanced manner with hood logo being one solid anchor point for our visual journey. Our eyes delight with colour and your colour palette of blue and yellow (opposites on the colour wheel) add not only visual strength but the yellow adds excitement for colour does that to us carbon based bipeds. I do have a suggestion for you to try. Have you considered a perfect square crop? The reason I say this is because if you have a circular focal point and place it into a square it becomes quite dynamic for the natural pathway of the eye within a square format is to go around and around and bounce off the equidistant lengths of each side...therefore our eyes do not leave the photo as quickly. This is a well seen and well taken image.

Yes to this one also. Love the grunge rusty effect..... it shows the texture well. Your tight composition and crop add strength to the shot and draws the viewer in and we engage with the image on many levels.

I really like the dof manipulation of this image. Your focus is sharp on the focal point which is not overcooked but natural and unpretentious. Having that diffused bokeh adds mystery to the image. Your contrast is well rendered, exposure also. You also have placed the star of the show into that all important grid point. Nice one. I like it.

Congratulations...

There are a lot of things to like about your creation. The fact that Mona Lisa is in shadows creates a mystery against the apocalyptic scene...it is as if there is still hope and the candle shows that we revere the beautiful in life. The three gas masks however look rather "glued on" there needs to be more combining, blurring of the hard margin to make them part of the scene. The yellow barrel is grrrrrrrrrreat with that shadow and feels like it belongs. What a great story you have created for our imaginations. Thank you.

Nice DOF.

AH.. the notorious SELFIE MONKEY!!! hehehe.. great idea

I really like the bokeh applied to this image. Keeping the eyes sharp draws us into his world and the background reminds us of his environment. It is important to capture soul and you have done this beautifully. Your crop and compositional style is well thought out...it is tight at the top but it matters naught because you do have "soul" and that is what matters most. Nice contrast, natural hues. Very delightful view.

Congrats Randy.

Both the glass and the bottle have a slight lean. Perhaps this has something to do with the other 4 corks?

Nice study
