That is gorgeous, Prieni! And the walker is perfectly positioned in that vertical line.

Prieni, I love the spectrum-like bands of color across sky, sea, and dory - lovely!

My wife and I just finished watching the documentary, Manufactured Landscapes, by Edward Burtynsky, which features his photography in industrializing China, among other places where people have made radical alterations to the environment. His images are stunning, most done with large-format cameras, but those of us with something smaller can learn from his creative vision, not to mention the moral impact of what he communicates.

I see his website (http://www.edwardburtynsky.com/) has some of the same images as the film.

First one is very cool! Love the coloring and DoF! Ribbit!

Darkmunk, nice job, with the caveats mentioned already about the centre being too empty. I did want to add, too, that you did well to get more than one of the daisies in focus, creating a nice balance with those that are blurred and those that are part of the bokeh. Keep it up!

Well done! A great image - beautiful light, and comically curious cow! Congrats!

Another welcome to the forum, Gareth!

I don't know anything about biking, but I do like your photos, especially the second from the last in your set!

Giving Tree,

Nice set! Especially 2 and 3. Great choices for depth of field and square cropping.

Have you tried any of your son with the guitar, e.g. close-up of fingers picking?

Great ideas for some I'd like to do with a couple friends - thanks!

Cheers!
