14 Aug 20 Comment Hi Syed, bird photography is not my strength despite spending quiet a bit of time trying. With his image I like that you have captured the bird close to the surface giving a degree of reflection. The detail appears to be sharp, as far as I can see in this small image, except for the right wing Being blown out. The bird is nicely separated from the background, making it the clear subject of the image, with the colour of the lake being well handled. A shame the bird is caught flying away. Looks like a a very pretty bird. Nice capture of a difficult subject Aug 25th

14 Aug 20 Comment Hi Xiao, it's difficult for me to comment as you appear to be working to your clients needs not you artistic endeavour. Which is the way it should be if that is what your client wants. On the technical side the image appears sharp, perhaps losing detail in the highlight at the bottom rear of the fish. To me the colour looks a bit underdone, perhaps consider lifting the overall saturation a bit. It looks like Gregory has lifted them a bit in his version. All the best with your journey down the product photography path.
Stay safe

14 Aug 20 Reply Thanks Darcy, knowing where to crop has always been a weak spot with me, I agree that the crop you suggested would make it a more powerful image. Aug 4th
14 Aug 20 Comment Nice capture and the conversion to B&W works for me, great detail in the aircraft everything sharp. For me the soldiers in the rear compartment does not stand out, perhaps the cabin could be worked to bring him out a bit more. I also suggest a slower shutter speed and a slight blurring of the propellers would make the image a bit more realistic. I'm jealous I would love to see these in action. Aug 3rd
14 Aug 20 Comment Well balanced symmetry with all three domes, shame about the modern building, but other than demolition not much that you could do. I like your choice of cropping and the juxtaposition of modern interior clean straight lines to the old buildings domes. On my screen there seems to be a green colour cast on the sky and dome, I accept that the some is probably copper, however the colour dosn't seem right on my screen Aug 3rd

14 Aug 20 Comment Well captured, I'm always intrigued by the colours in birds, otherwise plain birds, that revealed in photographs. I like the bean if lights toss the top and birds face, which helps draw you the the eye. I like the contrast provided by the birds body and the hole in the wall, but find the complete blackness unsettling, if there was any detail in that blackness I would try and bring it out a little. The texture in the wall is also well handled Aug 3rd
