1. Wow, those are pretty

Wow, those are pretty terrible.

Does the photographer know anything about exposure, framing, composition, or form? Or is he/she trying for the amateur/novice snapshot look?

2. As it's name implies, Orbit

As it's name implies, Orbit Art, it is meant to look static and hold as little life as possible. I think for it's theme it's good, you have to be able to go one step further into understanding the concept of the photoshoot.

Notice the contours have a pattern, the orbit.

3. I think the first post is

I think the first post is obviously written by an insecure-no-talent-having-likely-canadian-wannabe.
try include some intelligence to your comments, or better yet, post YOUR work.
you’re obviously incredible.
p.s. it DID make you react, and that is more than most photography can do.
learn from it.

4. The set would be much

The set would be much stronger without the last three shots, especially the final which not only misses the grace of the first in series, but may actually do them a disservice.

The washed style is appropriate given the nature of the name/subject - isolated, floating coldly in space, frozen. However, here again we have the final three frames which break the theme in both composition and colour.

The typography in the first frame is - assuming it was provided by the client - weak and out of context to the composition and is typical high-fashion shill. Quite cynical really; not expecting or eliciting much from it's viewer and failing to define why it should. This however, cannot be blamed on the photographer; yet, the real insult to the eye is the placement of the text in the first frame. Seriously, is that the best you think of your viewer?

The concept begs for more, but a rather flat delivery fails to boost this project into orbit.

More of 1&2; send the others to the black hole.
