I think the wriggly wall helps to make that work

White leopard by MikeRC

So 2.8 would be a touch optimistic and its probably not necessary to cut it so fine, 5.6 probably would have been OK, and 4 focused just behind the snout (muzzle ?) might have done it.

A romantic stroll by Phil_Nunez

I quite like it.
However the romantic stroll is a personal memory - its not in this photo.
I see architecture, perhaps history, interesting squares and lines and a cute little flag. The foreground gives a sense of where it might be.
Its interesting, and nice light, but not attention grabbing.

Unfortunately perhaps, ephotozine does tend to go for photos that give an eye catching thumbnail.

Lord Fergus by Fishnet

the background is a bit messy, but its truly a majestic portrait.
clicking!

BLACKMOUNT RANNOCH MOOR by Photo_Joker

I like the composition and colours in this one. Its a much more absorbing and competent work than the usual imgaes from that area.

Air Door Gunner by col.campbell

Looks like a good composition, but unfortunately is too dark to see properly

Me by Matilda_Green

Unconventional - like it

Far Away by Fishnet

thats good - and its different - versatility

but its got a wonky horizon tut tut

P.S. actually its kind of cute - sense of wonderment - and lots of space

Succulent by Mikkx

I like the straight on approach with the geometry of this plant, and the water droplets help.
i don't usually bother about borders, but I do like this one, it works for me.

** by CathyT

Contrast between dark rough textured background and light feminine subject very good.
Pose and composition very good.
Mono good choice for this.
Very appealing.

I Dare to Sleep by Diana

Very moody, lighting and colour work well, I suspect the make up and style are working with it.
Don't know what sort of mood.
Not sure if I want to be there when she wakes up.

Abii by brittanyxanthelouise

The composition is dead on, the light road in the dark trees, and the dark figure in just the right place. having her back turned adds a touch of mystery, so you wonder why, and as you say, make your own story.

Abii by brittanyxanthelouise

make your own story ?

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

-- J R R Tolkien

Slate Mountain 2 by Steven_Tyrer

Interesting subject. B&W brings across the texture and the boiling sky.

The Collection Grows.... by cattyal

Intriguing collection, good choice of colours, good arrangement, not sure about the background colour. The shadow on the bottom right shouldn't be there, I know its not easy though, I get that problem.
