Hi Giorgio, One thing that Australia is missing is scenes like this, and you've shown it really well here. The central composition was an interesting choice and I think I would have chosen to put the town in one corner. But tell me, how did you achieve that great sky? Cheers, Steve

Hi Lisa, I'm envious of your holiday. Like Yves I found the blue a bit heavy and tried a WS. Composition is good. Keeping the sea to a narrow band and of course the inclusion of the boat works really well. Cheers, Steve

Hi Lisa, Well composed shot, lots of depth provided by the FG detail and the sillouetted (spg?) rocks jutting out of the water. You waited for the right moment from a light POV but not a safety POV. Glad that you were able to escape unharmed. Cheers, Steve

Hi Alfred, Following Santo is a risky activity, but you seem to have come out ok :-) Like Andrew I like the framing, especially the inclusion of the menu down the side. cheers, Steve

Hi, Interesing shot. I particularly like the texture of the wall, and of course the little piece of grafitti works well too. Might have been tempted to crop the dark square at the bottom, making it less central. cheers, Steve

Hi, I like the use of the repeated forms of the chairs, drawing the viewer into the image. good lighting too. Cheers, Steve

Hi Benny, composition works well, using the buiding to frame itself and inclusion of the people provides a nice focal point and scale. nice work. Cheers, Steve

It seems strange to me that as building materials provided either more flexibility of design OR cheaper construction and bland design, we inevitably chose cheaper construction and hate it afterwards. Your image with its dark tones and grimy texture shows this well. cheers, Steve

Hi Kaludio, my favourite, so far, of your Japan series. Like the simple and effective composition, and red always works for me. cheers, steve
