Interesting and thought provoking thread. 

I must admit that I am somewhat worried that I have fallen into the trap of being to "soft" in my comments, although I only comment on images that catch my eye or on artists that I think are showing an ongoing improvement in their work (another subjective opinion). 

This thread has made me think that I should try to be more critical but I have no wish to discourage others by being overly critical and I often feel that while there are things in an image that I am viewing I would have done differently that these may be deliberate on the part of the artist. 

In the end I suppose that I am guilty of commenting on the emotional content an image has for me rather than the technical quality.  I' m not a great one for analysis rather I go for the feel of a thing operating on an instinctive level and I hope my comments reflect this.

To all of you who read this I always welcome constructive critique of my images.
