[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 255605, member: 9240"] It's so funny you mention the horizon because that's something I noticed immediately as I went through these - not critically but because it's one of the things that gives character to the photos. While composition is surely important the one things I'm seeing in a lot of great photographers is that rules are made to be broken - just not all the rules and all of the time. A slightly crooked horizon could mean a great landscape photo isn't nearly great, but it can also make that playful moment with the dog seem all that more raucous. There's a responsibility to the observer with a critique to be able to determine when details are missed and when normal conventions have been purposefully ignored, and with a good photograph it should be fairly obvious.
