Good shot. Simplicity at it's finest and love the expression of solitude. The long shutter time makes the clouds fuzzy and that creates a nice contrast with the sharp sea. To be honest I think it would also have been fine with a sharp sky. Excellent composition. Without the sun being visible there is a nice glow on some of the poles. That's a nice touch. Well done.

Nice shot. Good POV and the colour are strong. Like the pot in the foreground. The composition is good too although I think it might have been better with the pot covering the pole and without the part of the sunshade in the top left corner. Well done.

I gave fond memories of Cambodia and it's friendly and warm people. This nice portrait remembers me of that. I like the expression and the hair across her face. The hand gives it something peculiar but it's a pity that a finger covers an eye. Still, well done.

Lovely geometric photo. Good composition and selection of the diagonal lines. Also like the even lighting and the green-bronze color cast. Well done.

Nice composition and beautiful vibrant colors. Great clouds but perhaps the grey one at the top could have been cropped.

Nice shot. I like the warm blend of colors and the lighting that makes the man stand out from the background and accentuates the wrinkled face. Have to get a bit used to the square format of the photo but it works well here. Only drawback is an unbalance in the photo, it tilts a bit too much to the right. Good effort!

Wow, must be difficult to get a good photo in those conditions (snow & against the sun) but this one is perfect. Very well exposed without obvious areas of over- or underexposure. Composition is well balanced as are the colors. Excellent!

I'm sorry but I really don't understand all the positive comments. Sure it is pretty special and of course exciting to capture a fox in it's natural environment but that has little or nothing to do with the photographic quality. As you indicate yourself the technical quality of the photo is not good but apart from that neither the composition, POV or exposure make this an interesting shot. I see many, many great photos in your gallery but this is not one of them.

Excellent photo. Love the solemn rural setting and the composition with the little black figures against the snow and grey sky really sets the mood and makes this an interesting photo. Well done.

Minimalism at it's best! What a beautiful and tranquile (almost dreamy) photo. Excellent effort. Compo is excellent although placing the concentrating fisher even more to the right would have been interesting as would a tad more sharpness of the face. But that is really nitpicking over what is a splendid photo. Nice reflections.
