Composition Photos

The good:

I like the composition of this photo (# 2). I think the focus is right where it should be and I really like that you can see the reflection in the man's binoculars.

The bad:

I don't really like the composition of this photo (# 32). I think the picture could have been taken from a different angle, or even cropped better to get the cars out of the bottom and the streetlights out from the front of the sign.

The ?:

This photo (# 10) is taken from underneath ice. Would the photographer be able to to get a picture without going underwater to take it?

#10 is really cool. I like the colors and the angle of the picture and the leading lines created by the fins and such.

The first photo is good. It could have maybe been cooler if it was another time of day where the sky wasn't so bright, maybe if the sun were setting behind the photographer, helping to make the guy holding the lens thing the brightest thing in the photo. Probably was out of the photographer's control.

I'm not a big fan of text in photos, but I think the photographer was trying to be funny by including the cars in the bottom - it's almost like an unemployment billboard, it emphasizes how big the unemployment issue is in people's lives.

I have no idea what is actually going on in that third photo. Are his feet submerged?
