Running the rapids: A very nice action shot. You were even able to capture the _expression_ on the lady's face; splashing water, movement - great. I can't think of any way this could be improved. Rob Miracle
Camaro: I wasn't there and don't know the situation, but I think the models should have been either farther back, or closer to the car's front fender. Because of the title, I would expect the "Camaro" to be the focal point of the image and it's hidden behind the models. I also may have considered moving myself (as the photographer) more to the right. This may have eliminated the light post in the background that is a bit distracting. Everything is in focus and I like the hair blowing across the model's faces. It gives the photograph a carefree, easy-rider feel. Robert G. Earnest
House warming: Edgy; creates tension (for me, anyway). Gives a peek into a different lifestyle. Would I be nervous if these people moved in next door to me? Umm - maybe (although, I'm sure they are perfectly friendly and approachable). Dan Mitchell
Hedgehog: I like the green shrubs around the hedgehog and I really like the close-up of a creature I would rarely get to see "in person". If I had taken the shot, I think I'd have moved my camera so the hedgehog were a little closer to the right side of the frame so he/she weren't so centered. I really like this, though -great detail of the hedgehog. Bob Sull
Tarponssprings01: An unusual subject matter, and I think it took a good eye to see the photo op, here. Nice composition and framing. The sponges make a design. I like the mono-color and textures. Good shot. Christopher Strevens
Woodland Path: Your photographs are always different and creative, Christopher, and this one doesn't vary from your style. I know you are a good enough photographer so you put the brightest, straightest tree in the center of the image for a reason. For me, this causes tension and is disturbing A beautiful black and white image of a peaceful forest scene is sliced in half by the said tree. Kind of a dirty trick{:-< I want to relax and enjoy the quiet forest path, but can't. I like the lighting, the crisp focus; the detail. An intriguing shot and I like it. Kostas Papakotas
Room with a View: I like this photograph because I can see so many different images that could be created from the included subject matter. The title is perfect. The textures, "open" window, the sea, the colors all work together. Another intriguing shot that I can study for a long time. Roy Miller
What is it? Made in Japan: Did you find out what it is? My first thought was a purse, but there is no bottom. The color of the background and foreground work well with the bamboo item. I think I would have included some strong lighting at a distinct angle to take advantage of the item's slats. It may make it a more powerful image (can you see slits of light and shadow shooting off toward the background? A great object and I know I'd have fun working with it. Thank you to Andy and staff for hanging this
exciting show.
