New Joiners - People #546

This is a lovely image, made all the more poignant after reading the caption and realising how significant it is. The use of silhouette against the wonderful sunset has been skillfully handled and artfully realised. Good work, keep it up!

A cunning combination of documentary and staged photography works well here in a complex narrative about our relationship and consumption of food. The composition and lighting all work well and play into this narrative with a cool contemporary vibe. Kudos!

Wow, I love the sense of narrative in this exquisite tableau. The main character is beautifully lit and stands out against the other protagonists in a story that says a lot about the human condition. This is a really good photograph that's been taken perfectly. Keep up the good work.

What a clever and creative idea. Using a cunning combination of black and white and colour, sometimes known as 'pop colour' works well, especially after reading that the mono figure is a 'ghost'. This has been well executed, keep it up!

The fun and playful vibe of this image is wonderful. The colour palette and studio lighting have been carefully considered and work well in harmonising the image. The pose and position of the subject in the composition have been well considered, too. Good work.

What a lovely moment, perfectly captured. I love the use of a silhouette. The water with its ripples, textures and reflections adds a wonderful foreground. The hazy, foggy light creates a sublime atmosphere. This is a great image, well done!

Clever use of a wide aperture (f/3.5) has created a shallow depth of field, which has artfully blurred the background, creating separation from what might otherwise have been a busy distraction. The subject, looking away from the camera in thoughtful contemplation, is a nice touch

The sense of depth and story that the blurred face in the foreground creates is inspired and works exceptionally well. The clever use of black and white also works and suits the subject perfectly. This is a good image. Keep it up.

There's a lovely sense of history in this beautifully arranged composition. The two protagonists are perfectly positioned along the street, which artfully leads the viewers' eye into the image. The vintage style mono treatment, with a slightly warm hue, works a treat too.

It's not often that people feature in drone images like this, so it's refreshing to see. I love the layers of the composition. While I appreciate some folk find it important to watermark their work, in this instance, it does not help with the composition and creates an unnecessary distraction. Otherwise, a cracking shot, keep it up.

There is something beautifully poetic about this street shot that carries a poignant resonance. Shooting into the light (contre jour) has created some lovely lens flare, long-reaching shadows and a sense of depth that all add to the poetic vibe. Good work.

This is a good action shot that has been perfectly timed with the ball and bat a fraction of an inch away from contact. As previously mentioned in this round, don't let watermarks distract your composition. Otherwise, this is a cracking shot. Keep up the good work.

Great attitude in this strong image, which packs a punch. The composition is sublime, especially with the perfectly positioned strip of pink to the subject's right. The subject's penetrating gaze creates a real connection. This is good work. I would love to see more. Keep it up!

Wow, I love the ethereal vibe that the pink and purple hues evoke. The clever use of fabric, also adds to the ethereal vibe and is a clever accessory. The lighting and composition are the icing on the cake. Good work.

What a lovely idea, which artfully and creatively expands the compositional idea of the frame within the frame. Aside from this cool idea, the natural lighting position of the subjects and the lovely natural setting all skillfully play into the romantic narrative.
