    Before i begin, just to say that these are again (as i say time and time again), these views are only mine, and i am sure others may have different views.

    The images are a little blurred, which is a shame as there are some interesting photos here. The third photo does have alot of good promise as it instantly warps you into their world, and i can imagine myself standing there. A shame that there is a blurred shadow right in the front left of the image, but i think that if you crop the picture to just left of the light glow it could improve it a great deal.

    With the image of the lady behind the counter, again i would probably crop the right hand side to remove the person/object and probably also crop the man on the left from the middle of his head, thus making the eye lean more toward the image of the woman rather than the man. Again it would make me feel like i was there peering over his shoulder to see what she is doing - By the way, what is she doing?

    Keep up the good work !!

    Alex,

    From the top
    I sort of like this shot, it has a ghostly quality as if its the start of a horror movie soon to be splattered in blood. I think the blurryness adds to the effect.

    2. A different calendar would have been better in this shot, gives a very espionage type style.

    3. Doesn't really capture why the crowd is there and leaves me sayign so what.

    4. I like this a lot and the movement gives the photo atmosphere - good shooting

    5. does nothing for me.
