I like the layers of light and different subjects you have chosen to photograph, the neon lights are a great example of this, along with the chainlink image. You did a great job playing with repetition in the 4th image with the stools.
The majority of your photos do a good job at using the rule of thirds. There is a lot of negative space with highly contrasting subjects that makes these stand out. Your second picture looks kind of grey.
The transition between the subjects of your photos as well as the change of the visual weight from one photo to another seems very interesting. I think photos 2-4 would have benefited from more contrast.
The clarity and contrast was impressively capture in nine and ten, despite the dark lighting. The contrast wasn't as strong in the other images, but all of them were well composed and the camera angles were interesting and diverse.
Image 1 is my favorite, both in composition and imagery. Image 8 ruins the mystery of image 1 a little bit. I like that they're contrasting as far as time of day, but the way image 8 is framed makes it a bit less dynamic in comparison.
Photos one and seven have the same subject matter. I know we talked about not making photos too similar in our top ten. A couple of the night time shots are a little grainy so I'd watch out for that. The third photo down has some interesting patterns. Try more varying angles like you did in the first shot.
Your compositions consist of a lot of weird angles which I think work very well design-wise. It seems like you really paid attention to the design elements. A few are a bit too dark, so maybe just pay attention to that in the next shoot.
Claire, Were you showing balance in image 3? If you were, that was a very clever way to do it! I approve. Some of your other compositional elements aren't as clear. where is symmetry? and texture? Some others I can identify so that is something to work on. Your exposures are good. And your exposures in various lighting settings are quite good. I would work on editing when choosing your top ten. Image 8 does ruin the intrigue of image 1 and image 10 is much stronger than image 9 ( I wouldn't have included both). I would also like to see some of the shallow depth of field mastery that you showed last week. that would have given you an opportunity to show textures. Kashif
