#1. The water is white, the bear is clean and crisp, the fast shutter speed caught the water at a good time.  Overall,  I like the picture very much, I don't think I would have done anything better.  The appropriate ISO was used. I really like this picture. 

#2. The first thing that caught my attention was the yellow leaves in the bottom left corner (which is apparently what females tend to notice more).  The tree in the right had corner leads into the picture well. The moving water has the "fog" effect, meaning a slow shutter speed was used, which according to the picture was a 1.6seconds.  The colors are very bright, and reflected in the water.   Overall, I think it is a beautiful picture.

#3. The photographer use of white versus black is amazing.  Neither the black or white turned out grey due to under/over exposing, so I'm assuming they edited it, manually exposed it, or used some sort of polarizer or filter (or maybe all the above).  I think this picture is really cool, but not one of my favorites. 

#4.  The ten second exposure gave the mountains a very looming, yet gorgeous effect.  The mountain is very sharp and in focus yet the stars are blurry. The fading of the sky from dark blue to lighter blue leads me to believe that the photographer used a graduated filter.  It is a breathtaking picture, but to me it looks fake. 

#5.  The bright colors of  the water draw my attention right away.  I noticed there are some plains going on.  The mountains in the background, the blue sky, the slanting hill, and the foreground with the hot water spring.  I love the colors.

#6. I love bright colors, so I especially love this picture. The bird, being the center of focus is clean and crisp, where the branches are slightly blurred. Everything ties in really well together and complements each other.

#7. The first thing I noticed was the the water and the bear are not in focus, nothing is really in focus. The water is blurry, meaning a lower shutter speed then should have been used. Overall, I think it is a cool picture, would have been 100x better in focus.

#8.  Red is the most attractive color to the human eye, this photographer did a nice job incorporating that in.  The contrast of the green and red gives it an extra pop.  The sun in the back corner rounds out the whole picture.  Looks to me like this is a composite picture, but it is beautiful non the less.

#9. The water is nice and crisp but the wings that are the closest are blurred.  The photographer focused more so on the lower body of the bird rather then the whole thing.  If they could have managed to get it all into focus, the picture would have been perfect.

#10. The polar bear in the foreground is nice and clear, to me the background is kind of boring, besides the other bear. Personally would have left all of the flat, white tundra out of the picture. The snow turned out white instead of grey, so the photographer manually overrode the exposure. If is a nice picture.
