    +I really like how the flower is in the center. Good position.
    -Like you said its blurry when it gets big, but when its small it looks good.

    Here's a picture I took from a concert I went to last week.
    The band is Between The Trees

    + great action shot. A lot of concert photos tend to look flat but this one really captures movement
    - the frame is a little busy. Perhaps a closer crop on the musicians?

    for adorable_crazy, a closer/tighter crop of the bird

    + Wonderful shot, good composition, nice cropping, good depth of field.
    - I can't really think of anything except if you could get a slightly less angle but I know (zoos are one of my favorite places to take picture) sometimes you have not choice.

    Mine for today, a Muskox, taken at a zoon near me.

    + The Muskox is in great composition and works well again the background.
    - I know zoos are hard to take photos at. Would have been nice to see more of the face than the side of the head.

    A random painting I found on a wall at one of the schools near by.

    + Good close up shot, easy to read the text as it really stands out.
    - Not much to criticise really, except it becomes slightly blurred when viewed larger.

    The Ferris wheel in Belfast (Northern Ireland). A shot from below.

    + The contrast of the light against the black works very well and causes the ferris wheel to pop and shine.
    - Small it looks awesome, larger it's blurry and grainy. Perhaps try upping the resolution or another setting on the camera.

    This is my photo from the last challenge, just wanted some opnions on it.

    + So that is who entered that picture, beautiful. Nice composition, clear and sharp. Good job
    - Try increasing the contrast just slightly, that might make the sky really pop and bring out some of the green of the bank.

    Mine for today. Another tulip picture. I was trying something a little different this year, I noticed that most of the professional photographs were of multiple tulips and not of just one like what I normally do, so I game it a try.

    + Beautiful picture, composition is great, it's really clear and sharp, looks brilliant.
    - I can't really find anything to criticise about it, it's an amazing photo, well done.

    The Cliffs of Mohar, Co Clare, Ireland.

    + The overall composition works very well, horizon is straight and easy to see what the subject is.
    - There seems to be a slight haze and the dirt patch on the left is a bit distracting.

    Random sign for today.

    + The colouring on the shot looks great, it's rather eye-catching.
    - The shot is a little busy, my eyes seemed to be wondering, unsure where to look the whole time.

    A shot of the pond near my house when it snowed.

    + Beautiful picture. The focus on the bridge is good, interesting shot.
    - upping the contrast just a small amount could make this picture really pop.

    Mine for today.

    + I really like how the main flowers have been sharpened and the ones in the background blurred, it really draws your attention the main focus.
    - The flower in the middle has another flower to the right, but not one to the left, but appart from that the photo is symetrical, it takes away from the picture a little.

    Lough Swilly, Co. Donegal, Ireland.

    + Very good use of the Rule of Thirds with the water in the middle of the photo.
    - Try upping the contrast and saturation so the colors pop more. Also when the photo is made larger there is a slight grainyness to it.

    Here is mine of a random cake from my friend's birthday.

    + The nice close up shot really draws your attention, also the contrast between the bright colours on decorations and the icing, are very eye catching.
    - There seems to be more shadow on the right hand side of the cake, making it darker, it's also a tad distracting.

    'The North Coast.' Northern Ireland.
