David,
Faves, and direction that you do really well in your portfolios is the elegant detail shot, such as:

dead bird and burned door in Manmade,
seaweed under Coast,
tangled trees and pond image in Sierra.

As far as comments on this go, I remember Carl Weese, inveterate Ziatypist, telling me his prints online are not scans of the real prints but digitally colorized to approximate the real prints because it was impossible, in his opinion, to show a real ziatype on the web from a scan of one, that a digitally created "ziatype" looked like the real thing.

I do scan my tricolor gum prints, or photograph them with a digital camera, because it does matter with gum. But usually the scanned gums look milky and way more textural than they are in person. Like seeing a movie star's pores in the movies nowadays.
