This image had great composition and nice framing a good moment in the rear view mirror. The repetition of the hearts makes this an unusual and well seen photograph. Super composition, nice emotion.

This black and white image was very stunning. The photographer left enough space to give it a great spacious composition. Very moody yet intimate feel to this picture.

An interesting technique where the solid, bright background color adds to the excitement. It views like a movie and a sense of motion is conveyed in the photographer's choice and placement of images in the series.

The nice composition and body language of the couple makes this image work. The isolated color helps the subjects jump out, but at the same time the color of the street light may have added to the mood. Thoughtful composition, good direction to the subjects. The result is a photo that gives the sense that no one else exists in the world from the subjects' point of view.

This image is very elegant. The single eye exposed through the veil makes this photo work. It is however, a little tonally flat and could use a little exposure.

Great feeling, nice dash of color in the frame, not too overdone. It really evokes a feeling of serenity to the viewer.

The great angle and repetition pattern of the ground makes this image very stunning. The coloring toning neither helps it or hurts it a great deal. Looks like the cover of a romance novel.

Smart shutter speed choice combined with clean background. A dizzying picture.
