15 Jan 24 Reply oh wow, you saved me! Thank you much. Jan 3rd
15 Jan 24 Comment Kathy, that is a wonderful image. I love you got all three faces and eyes. It is hard to deal with the sticks, and I think you handled those in a good way. I find the blue sky strong and competing with the birds, and you could lighten the sky a bit. I am not sure what is going on with the top of the bird's heads as they seem soft albeit the rest of the imange is sharp, and the heads are sharp. At f10 all should be sharp. Did you do some post processing of some sort as the bodies are a bit soft too, especially the one on the left appears to have something soft to the right of it's beak? But overall I like this shot. Jan 3rd
15 Jan 24 Comment Pei-Fan Mu, you certainly have nailed this shot! Sharp and a wonderful scene with great action. As to the pink, I agree, and the blue upper area is a bit saturated too. I wonder how it would look if you chose the background and simply took out some saturation. The birds are wonderful. Jan 3rd
15 Jan 24 Comment Mike, I agree the tighter crop Dr Isaac suggested makes the pic much more appealing, to an already good shot and story even stronger. I love that they are looking at each other and that really comes out with the suggested tighter crop. Jan 3rd
15 Jan 24 Comment Jim, your post processing was very well done, really. Colors are nice, and the suggestions I make to consider are to blur the background even more and darken the background to get rid of the bright areas, making the Flamingo look even more pronounced. Another possibility is to take some of the color out of the background to have a creative selective color. Jan 3rd
15 Jan 24 Comment Dr Isaac, what a great moment you captured. Love the wing span and the colors are outstanding. Although the branches interfere with the birds, they are part of the scene and do not cause a distraction, as you got their eyes beautifully. Jan 3rd
15 Jan 24 Reply Ah, Kathy I suppose you are correct, and I will see if I can figure it out. I need to write these thing down when I know and not by memory. Thanks. Jan 3rd

81 Jan 24 Comment Ralph, very interesting, and I wish he was looking at us. Bright tree on left could be cropped out, and a bit more room on the right would work too, as you would be taking us forward, but it works on the right as is too. More contrast and whites I think is needed. I like bnw, so bravo to you! Jan 3rd
81 Jan 24 Comment Kurt, I like what you are doing. It is bright and hard to keep looking at it. I like what Angela did. Texture and detail can be important. I see what you are trying to accomplish, so keep at it and find your style. Jan 3rd
81 Jan 24 Comment Rose, well done. I like the board and the pears, and the arrangement. The colors are great. I can taste them. I am not sure of the total black background as it is kind of floating out there. Maybe something dark but a bit of detail. Jan 3rd
81 Jan 24 Comment Janet, what a cutie! I love the expression, and the leaves. I like your crop. I suggest you blur out the background trees. Jan 3rd
81 Jan 24 Reply Angela, not sure the type of Geese, but you just may be right. I said ducks, but Geese seems to be what they are. And yes, the ice color is pretty spot on. Some is clear, some white, some blue, some black as it picks up the black sand. Jan 2nd
