Very cool silhouette of the birds that matches really well with the lighting of the sky. I like how the treetops frame the bottom of the picture as well.

Love the details in the man's face, along with the very contrasting black and white composition. Great close-up portrait.

Really cool perspective and colors in the sky. Looking up at the windmill makes it look much more extravagant.

Really awesome action shot, but I would have liked it if the colors were less muddy. Good shallow depth of field, though.

I really like the perspective and the contrast in colors. White backgrounds always add to the simplicity of the shot which I like.

Incredible landscape shot, I'm a sucker for flared sunlight and slightly long exposures.

I don't normally appreciate architecture photography, but the leading lines that the staircase creates is incredibly intriguing. Great shapes throughout the composition.

With the bright colors that the snake possesses, the vignetting editing really makes it pop. Really great detail in the scales as well.

Really good lighting which emphasizes the detailing and geometry of the rocks. Awesome slow shutter speed as well.

The lighting, leaves, and bokeh all are absolutely stunning in this photo. Such a great capture.

Usually I don't like the harsh direct lighting that is present here, but with the red rocks and contrasting sky I think it's very intriguing.

A legend is back. Cool artistic shot, with the precipitation acting as a really cool border.

Another awesome travel portrait. The lighting could not be more perfect, and the perspective of being on the boat along with the trees on the coast lead to a very interesting composition.

I really like the black and white travel portrait. The location is phenomenal, and his pose with the fading background eludes promise and adventure.

Very cool stop action photo, the background is perfectly out of focus and subject perfectly in focus.

I really enjoy the shimmer of the water in this landscape, which was most likely achieved through a longer shutter speed and a larger aperture value.

Really cool sentimental connection between the dog and child in this photo. The soft back lighting makes this picture really uplifting and peaceful.

I really like the expression on the girl's face in this portrait. Also, the contrast in colors between the green, blurred background and her red clothing really make her pop. Fantastic lighting as well.

A cool shallow depth of field travel shot that has a pretty cool lighting scenario in the background. Leaves a lot to the imagination.

Incredible light-painting/ firework design photo. I'm not sure what the artist is trying to convey but the lighting was perfectly executed!

I really like the bokeh here. Very abstract, and the water pearl necklace-esque detailing above is very intriguing.

Really like the fact that the only things in focus are the chair and horizon. The long exposure in black and white is really nicely done.

I would have liked this photo more if the log wasn't as centered. The rippling of the water is really intriguing, and the clouds bring out a lot of detail.

Artsy winter photos. I could take something like this with a macro lens. And good lighting.
