My random mini critique:

Picture number one:
Personally, I think the focus on the road takes away from the peice a bit. Personally, I'd rather focus on what the road is leading to, rather than the road itself. Black and yellow Asfault is only so interesting for so long :D

Picture number two:
I love the subject matter. Seriously- where do you live? If you have photoshop you may want to bring the contrast up a tad, but other than that I can't see anything that needs to be fixed. Well done!

Picture number three:
Again, beautiful subject matter. I especially like the way the greens, browns, and grays play off of eachother. You may want to crop out a bit of the white sky, though. The eye is immediately drawn to it, and everything below it isn't really noticeable.

Picture number four:
WHERE DO YOU LIVE?! I love this peice... with a passion. Theres really nothing to comment on. Let me know if you have a DA account- I totally want to fav this one.



Anyway, because of the stuff I listed really can't be fixed unless you want to run around retaking pictures, and its probably not the best idea to listen to me anyway, you may as well ignore this. So um... yeah. Have a nice day.
I feel the dire need to go buy tootsie rolls right now, and I can't really explain why.

I live them. Not crazy about the first one cause the angle you choose draws the eye up but the up of the picture is destablized and out of focus. Kinda makes it a not pleasing to the eye pic.

Second and thrid are gorgeous. Really very pretty.

and I love the angle on the fourth. I want to live where you live too. So pretty!

2nd and 4th = :D:D:D:D:D:D:D


Awesomely awesome.

the 4th is probably my favorite. But the second makes a strong case.

Oh, gosh Fabes... Even these photos without people are just stunning.

I loved the twisting road ever since I saw it in your blog, seeing it was the others makes it "fit" in. They all are of the same style.

You are so amazing with this. Print a book or something, with pictures and witty stories on the opposite pages that represent the pictures, lol. They're magnificent, as always.

I love the fourth, it looks so mystical, the way the water reflects the sun and the trees lining the sides. Brilliant!

The third is a little plain but the leaf carpet of the second is nice and a good contrast with the green.

The first and the third one are definitely my favorite. There is a road near my house that is much like that, and the scary part is today I considered stopping and taking a picture of it today haha. But, it's slightly more populated than yours. I love 'em!

ok, you don't like awesome?

Well here's more detail for yeh':

The two main aspects of the fourth that stick out as appealing, are the texture and gloss of the road at the bottom, and the shape of it at the top. Something about pictures of the glare of wet asphalt is so enthralling to me, and your angle is well chosen. The road shape up-top is just plain interesting, and again, then angle suits it. Also, the colors are rather complimentary of each other, so it makes for an over-all pleasant and intriguing piece.

I love the fourth one because it looks like the road is turning into a stream when it starts to wind.
