I've read all the comments. I agree the colorful border was too distracting. I made a new border with a color form the images.
I think the real problem, though, is that each image is a different scale. There is no way to arrange them that gets around that. This looks a little better, but I can see that to really make this concept work I need to go back and try again. |

That's amazing! The wildest thing I've seen around here are a flock of wild turkey crossing our yard.... we seem to be on their regular route because that's happened a couple times. |

I agree with Catherine - this is street photography!Just happens to involve animals.
Where do you live? Where did you see an elk like this? Incredible! |

I admire that you did this and got this moment.You truly have an eye and should keep doing street photography.
I am trying it too, a little, mostly with my phone. I have some fancy apps on the phone to get RAW images and so on and use that. The click on my DSLR is quite loud - that gets people's attention more than anything.
Keep taking street images! We live in interesting times - they need to be documented!

A powerful picture. I had a strong visceral reaction to it whenI first saw it as I am not familiar with these flowers and I thought it was some kind of huge spider!
I am actually fascinated by the caterpillar in the original. A wider crop that includes the caterpillar might be interesting.
On the other hand, it might look better without it. Maybe cloned out.
I did a little slider work and added a little vignetting. See what you think. |

Wow, wow, what a catch! Great image!
I assumed it was a long lens so that you could get the picture from a distance.
You can open the original image in Photoshop and get the info of the original from there. It will give you lens, aperture, ISO, shutter speed, etc. That is the information our visitors want.
About the suggestion to get more bokeh, you could add bokeh in PS but I think that would look very artificial, as the bokeh would apply to the next and they are sitting right on it. The vignette solution is perfect, IMHO.
If you have PS you probably have Camera Raw too. Try opening the original image in Camera Raw and playing with the sliders there (bring downhighlights, add a touch of warmth). If you don't have camera Raw you can use the Camera Raw filter in Filters in PS. This will enable you to make the changes that Gary made for yourself.
Really good catch. And I think what you did with the eyelight was brilliant. |

Great image! great catch! Shows off your excellent eye.
It was clear to me right away that the blobs were children. I like Stephen's flipping of the image. I would also like to see a more contrasty B&W version with the shadows darkened further. I like both B&W and color. You can take it in several directions. |

I agree with everyone that this spot deserves a return visit.
I thought the wall was a train at first too. The new version is less confusing, as I can see there are no wheels and the footpath.
I'm curious to see how a B&W treatment would look.
I love this image as is! But I do hope you can go back and try Henry's suggestions among other things. |
