"I love the use of negative space and leading lines in this shot. Nothing is out of place and the people provide a great sense of scale for the actual size of this staircase. Wonderful shot." - Casey McCallister
"I'm a sucker for a long exposure shot. This shot is excellent on it's own, but the traffic adds that "it factor" making the image complete. The orange and blue tones compliment each other and the starbursts on the tower pull me in to the main area of the photo. " - Casey McCallister
"I'm drawn to photographs of real moments and this is one that stood out to me. I love the expression on his face and the reflection. The wide angle lens really adds a lot in terms of leading lines and with the height of the birds - leading the viewer's eye right to the main subject. " - Casey McCallister
"Long exposures of the ocean can be tough and this one was done perfectly. Great composition with the C-curve on the left side pulling the viewer back into the photo. The white surf shows off the motion of the turbulent water and the dramatic clouds really top off the mood. " - Casey McCallister
