2 May 23 Comment This is a busy, action photo. It is sharp and well caught.
I seem to be in a "cropping" mood today and would suggest cropping out the sky completely and desaturating the background ever so slightly.
Just a thought!

2 May 23 Comment Wow!
What a dramatic image.
I love the crop and I like the new background, even though it might DQ you from a nature competition.
This bird has a look of determination on it's face.
Well done.

2 May 23 Comment Another great image Jim.
I agree with Shirley that increasing the contrast might "lift" this image ... and certainly printing it on Aluminium would make it a really dramatic print for the wall.
Piers is right when he suggests that sweeping curve from the foreground up to the peak leads the eye into the image. A lovely image, I wish it was mine.
Well done!

2 May 23 Comment Hi Susan and welcome to our group.
This is a lovely photo and I love the interaction of the brown horse with the other one. Is the whitish horse a called a "grey"? Our local police force ride horses of a similar colour and markings.
As Piers and Shirley have already said you may eventually find Snapseed a little limiting and need to move to something more powerful like Lightroom and Photoshop. I am sure the members of your camera club will help you with the intricacies of these programmes.
I would suggest looking at the drama Piers created in his photo of the gull, simply by cropping his original image. You could do the same with your image and turn it into a "portrait" with the focus on the two heads of the horses. A simple crop is sometimes all that an image needs to "lift" it to a new level. I always look at cropping to remove anything that does not contribute to the story of the image, or even create a new story! If it doesn't work for you, then go back to the original image.		 May 1st
