30 Nov 20 Comment Great capture! I agree with Robert. I would get rid of the one car that is closest to the viewer but leave the other car way in the background. I think adds intrigue. Nov 11th
30 Nov 20 Comment Fabulous Fall colors!! I have been trying to grab them around me, but I feel like they never really go this brilliant this year! I sat and debated your framing thought. I see your point. I like the cropped in version where just the three leaves are there. It's not that original version bothers me, I just like the cleaner version better. Maybe try a hybrid? Clean up the bottom left corner and leave everything else! Nov 11th
30 Nov 20 Reply Lenoid, did you add lighting to the hands or take away lighting? Nov 11th
30 Nov 20 Comment Nice capture. I like the slice of life you captured with tis image. I can see where the little patch of green on the left is distracting. You could try to clone it out and just make it all whatever that is he is in front of. It really is a great image. Nov 11th
30 Nov 20 Comment Nice capture on the flower. I like the white vignette, but I would pull back on it a little. Have it be a little more subtle. Nov 11th
30 Nov 20 Comment The sky feels a little grainy and the image is little too dark over all. I like Leonids bright sky and his suggestions do give an over-all high-key piece, but I don't know if you have to go that extreme. I would definitely crop off a little of the water, I think compositionally it works better. I would try to go somewhere between yours and Leonids. Nov 11th
30 Nov 20 Comment I think you did well with the still life aspect. The colors are really fresh and I like how you captured leading lines and elements with the carrots in the basket. The image feels a little flat. The elements are so realistic, I feel like you need some more contrast with lights and shadows. Nov 11th

57 Nov 20 Comment I like the angle of the flower you captured, but I find the leaves and pink elements a little distracting. What if you tried to crop in slightly? I find the background distracting. I would also try content awarding some of that blurry stuff out. It could make for a more striking composition. Nov 11th
57 Nov 20 Comment Great capture. I think you did very well since it is through a glass window. You also managed to capture the bird showing it's personality. Is it chirping, is it hungry? The background is a little distracting. As Bob suggested in the future you could try a smaller aperture, but since you never know if there will be a next time with this shot, have you tried trying to just blur the background slightly with software? Nov 11th
57 Nov 20 Comment So, I have tried this as well, on a light table. Not much success. I think this is great and I like the abstract quality you captured with the flesh of the grapefruit. I wonder if brightening the image over all would jazz it up a bit? It feels dark. Nov 11th
57 Nov 20 Comment I love shooting dead leaves hanging on branches!! The way you captured the light coming through the leaves is great. I think the gradient works well. It is very subtle and encourages you to focus on the subject. Perfect background blur as well.

57 Nov 20 Comment Nice, fun image, and I love the color. I would introduce the stem back in, so the flower isn't floating. I do like the textured background as opposed to the original. Nov 11th
57 Nov 20 Comment I think you did a great job of capturing the texture and feel of the feathers. I think the composition is great. As for the background, as Bob said, it feels like you erased something or tried to cover something up out of the image. I would also try darkening the background. Nov 11th
