        Hi Roberto, Welcome to Lightstalking. I would love to travel to Italy one day, I think you live in an amazing part of the world

          A wider crop would give the boat a better sense of loneliness or isolation and given us a better view of the incoming storm and give the sense of something left behind for another day

              I love the irony of seeing her through the barbed wire and ‘confined’ in a tight crop. It did take me a little minute to work out what I was looking at though, maybe getting slightly more square to the wall would have helped but otherwise, great image

                I think you missed your moment by a fraction of a second. For this to really have impact (pardon the pun) you need to capture the moment of explosive energy. This image doesn’t show any energy, the girl and tyre could be resting there or gently stretching for all I know. It might have been better to capture her just prior to making contact with the tyre, while there was still some tension in her stance

                  Lovely image, kids will find fun no matter how bad the weather. I’m not sure how you did the black and white conversion but it is pretty dull, I would try again with a little more contrast and yeah it’s a real pity that right foot got cut off. The feet are important here to tell the story so we should see them in there entirety

                    This would be a much more arresting image if the bottom half of the frame was brighter. Try and bring the exposure up on that section to get a bit more interest in there or try a more panoramic crop to get rid of the darker area of sky top right and the bottom third of the dark city area

                      I don’t mind the idea of having the volley ball net in focus and the background out of focus but I think for this to work you need the foreground – in focus area to be a little more interesting or tell a better story. Perhaps if there was an umpires stand or a flag or something the concept would work better. I have done a similar thing with a post and sign at a waterfront area

                          No I don’t think it’s too bright, providing you haven’t blown out the red channel it should print up well. Such gorgeous colours! I’m torn between loving the right palm tree splitting the image in two and thinking that a slight crop from the left hand side would be good. All a matter of personal taste I suppose

                            Actually I think this is a female – males normally do not have hair on the tops of their ossicones (horn like objects on their heads)!!

                            There looks to be a green cast to the image, try upping the magenta a touch and see if that makes a difference. Otherwise nice shot

                              What a great subject to photograph. I agree with @Yumarena on the out of focus area to the right being a little distracting. I also would have liked to see the hand closest to us in full rather than being cut off at the base of the thumb so maybe a slightly wider shot would have worked. Otherwise it is a really interesting image

                                You have captured nice sharp silhouettes and the colour is beautiful. I would have waited just a couple of minutes until the sun dipped below the horizon a little. You would have still captured the beautiful golden light and I don’t think having the sun visible adds anything to the overall image. It is lovely though

                                  I agree with @karamen on the processing. The little pop of red sets the image off.

                                      Yes it is a light. The water tower is in the middle of a public square with a small water feature at the bottom and some seating and the underneath of the tower is lit with some in ground lighting and these lights on arms
