Too much information on the Right side.  Not quite enough on the top.

>Bob McCulloch - Boats

Extremely common shot.  Just a report.  If you live where this happens all
the time, go back and take the same situation 15 times or so until you find
a new way of saying it.

>Dan Mitchell - Android

It's a shame they didn't alternate the womanniken legs when they set them
up.  Kinda a standard perspective showing some tired slice-of-life but not
enough effort on the part of the Android holder.

>  Tina Manley - Children with Pig, 2002

Really dark on my monitor.  I wish there were some connection between the
kids and the pig, instead of between the kids and the photographer.
Personally, I'm not much into posed shots.

>John Palcewski - Hand

It would be more interesting if there were some evidence that the facial
expression was connected to the hand, or the hand shape.  The facial
expression is very strong, competing with the position of the hand within
the frame and possibly giving the lie to the captioned subject.

>Yoram Gelman - Veranda in Decay

I looked for quite a while trying to figure out the decay part. 
There is a small gap between the farthest post and the railing to its right.
I think I'd prefer a little less black.

>Christopher Strevens - The way.

Trash.  No particular evidence of a way, except possibly of the way people
abuse their environments.  Somehow I doubt that's what Chris was trying to
say. 

chris
It was the wrong photograph. It shows the smokers den in this proudly
proclaimed non smoking hospital....

>Art Faul -

Not sure what the image has to do with the caption, especially when digital
display in the forum gallery is so poorly suited to revealing evidence of
print quality.  Not inclined to keep looking when such ugly language
accompanies the presentation.

>Randy Little -

Wonderful how much improved graphic design has become since this business
card.  The card exposes to me how ugly typewriter font has always been.  No
evidence on the card for why "Meyer" is being mentioned in the caption, or
for what a bi-plane aerial photography service has to do with the Indy 500.
