I like this one more than the other. The linear devices are cool. I agree with filling the top left with something. You could move the body copy up there, or fill it in with an image, maybe 2.

Its hard to contrast without the second design but I like where the first one is going. Have to agree about the contrast issues, the type font may need a different color. I do like the imagery though...

Now see. That's just cool!

I really get a kick out of the geometry of this layout. The fact that it has a vanishing point, and that it uses contrast so well. For about 3/4ths of it, it really moves the eye around nicely. This also shows off what just a hint of color will do on a black an white composition.

I've got a couple of suggestions that I think will help this one out. First, I'd enlarge the TMCC logo to about twice as big as it is. Second, I'd put your buttons for Projects Two and Three along with your resources links under it. Third, I'd reorder the type on the slats so it went:
  • GRC 175
  • Web Design
  • Publishing I
  • Spring 2014
Fourth, I'd shrink your bodycopy slightly and put a little bit more spacing between your paragraphs.

Otherwise you have a neat geometric design with a great look and feel. Nice work! Very nice work!

This is a really nice design! I like the dynamic motion it creates. My suggestion would be to move the text up higher into the empty sky space instead of leaving the body of text over the sitting part of the bench.

Hello! I'm liking the vanishing point and the correlation of type, very thoughtful. Also I'm enjoying the black and white with the splash of color. The yellow is a great choice as it has high contrast. Don't forget to include buttons for your links, other than that this looks like it's headed in a good direction.

The photo looks great. Just need to work your elements around it.

Great image! This does need something in the top right corner, but I know you've already taken care of it, so good job :D
