This. This is just absolutely beautiful. I feel that this cosplay set really captures the spirit of Fullmetal Alchemist, and of Edward's melancholy, like few others. Melancholy is the word that comes to mind, because I feel that your cosplay captures his pain and loneliness beyond the energetic and confident alchemist that he appears to be at first, but in a way that is full of beauty and not despair. These pictures seem both thoughtful and thought-provoking.
The setting that you have chosen, quite a topic to FMA, you use to its fullest potential. I like this picture especially, because Ed seems to be hovering on the edge of something, not quite falling, not quite knowing which road to take, and yet still standing strong in spite of the wind trying to blow him in different directions. It's a very powerful photograph, and a brilliant cosplay.
The only negative critique I would offer is that the fullview size is so big that the picture cannot be fully appreciated in it.
