Wonderful image! The colours make a lot of difference, they give the image depth and bring it alive. Beautifully composed. |

Yes, again you have raised a very good point here. I think the way to overcome the pixel issue is to completely shoot in manual model at a speed set as high as possible. I am not entirely sure about this, my technical knowledge is not good enough, it may well be impossible to do. |

Thank you for your kind words Andrew. I have toned down the hot spots and it looks better now. |

Thank you Prasad. Where would we be without post processing tools! |

Hi Prasad, that's a good point about capturing the entire building. There is a way of overcoming the lack of a wide angle lens, but it requires more effort. You can take a panoramic shot ie, take 2 images overlapping each other by about a third (that's what I do) and merge them either in Lightroom or Photoshop - very easy to do in either tool.
Try it out - it's a very handy tool to have in your photograph arsenal and it does not weigh anything :). When the light is good (not applicable to your shot), you do not even have to use a tripod. |

This is a great composition and capture of the scene.
When taking such a shot, one has very little control about the background, but you captured it well. Maybe you could try and darken it slightly with the masking brush in Lightroom to emphasis the focus on the birds. You could even crop another centimetre from the top, but it may not give you the desired effect. For bird photography I always try to set the speed of my camera to at least 1/1250 to better capture movements.
It's a very good shot Shirley.

A beautifully composed image Andrew. It has three tiers with the backwash in the front adding balance to the image. The breaking waves suggest motion and drama and the waves building in the background tell the story of the rolling sea.
I would try to sharpen the spray of the frontline wave which may add more drama and maybe emphasis the focus area. Not sure if it will work, but I would try. |

The shot is beautifully centred and the light is good. I agree with the other comments that the foreground needs some work. To me, the people in the foreground add to the image and they are well captured, but the metal cage is quite distracting. It often happens to me too - I am so focused on the subject I want to capture that I do not even notice the distractions in the image. Over time I have learned to look twice before taking the shot and place myself in a better position before pressing the release button. With this image, the ideal spot would have been in front of the cage.
All the same, it is a beautiful image Prasad, technically well executed - perspectives very well handled. |

What an incredible shot! Catching these two youngsters at the same time is fantastic, you must be very proud of it. The eyes are just perfect. If you use Lightroom, you could try and bring down the highlights on the tree trunk and the beaks a bit. You could also try and sharpen the red feathers if it's possible.
It's a great shot Kathleen, congratulations!
