Fire 'n Water by mikesmith

Great shot! I like the lead in from the stones and the clear water in the foreground - and of course, the orange sky on the right. A good choice of wide angle lens too.

Mr.Tansley's Glasses by chase

Great concept. Great composition as usual. Steeped in atmosphere.

Old Bridge by Kim Walton

I like the moody tones - the lighting and tones are crucial in making this particular pic so successful.

Abbey Dore Stairs by Kim Walton

As already has been said, pleasing lighting and tones - and good composition.

Calla Curves by chase

Very accomplished result.
As said above, it's like a painting.

Dancing on Water by mikesmith

This one is exceptional - even by your standards, Mike!
What a beautiful print to adorn the wall with!
Well done!
I find it impossible to imagine how it could have been done better.

Side by Side.. by chris-p

Great shot! Wonderfully atmospheric - I love the many shades of grey in the billowing smoke. Black and white was a good choice.
Just about as good as it gets with steam loco shots.

Oil and water by MandyD

Excellent abstract. Effective and simple composition and colours.

Cauldron "Falls" by mikesmith

Great Job! I like the depth of this pic and the perspective makes me feel as if I'm there standing in the water - with my wellies on of course...
As already said by a previous voter, you've chosen just the right shutter speed and the composition is excellent.

Megan in Mono by chase

Soft and feminine but slightly gritty - Yes, I think you've achieved that result: Megan's expression reflects that effect exactly - a feminine but strong personality.
You always achieve such fine tones whether in colour or black and white and always with an impeccable sense of composition.
Well done!
You should do well in the competition you entered.

Museum of Liverpool Life Stairwell by Blackcrag

I like this. Nicely cropped (whether in camera or software) with no unnecessary distractions.
There's something hypnotic about this pic with its curves and light and shade.

Elgol by John_Duckett

A fine composition. I like the depth provided by the foreground rocks which lead nicely into the scene.
I like the spray between the rocks too.

Garth

Freesia by chase

Brilliant! Composition, pastel shades, background - all superb!

Garth

Mellow Moods by mikesmith

Great sense of composition, colour and light.

As good as it gets!
