I'm always taken aback when I see the orange teeth of some rodents, even though I know that it is the correct (natural) color. I just found out that it is because the teeth of gnawing animals have iron in them instead of magnesium--making them better suited for the job at hand (really, at mouth). They are stronger and more acid-resistant than other rodents teeth. |

This is a very compelling portrait. The ewe is certainly engaged with you (sorry. . .). The shallow depth of field puts the viewer's attention right where it should be. Warming up the colors a bit in post makes for a more inviting image. |

I agree, this is well done. The silhouette of the acacia trees pegs the location for me, and stand in marked contrast to the extraordinary sky and reflection. |

Janice, your comments are to the point. Since this is my first go at this sort of thing, I think I stopped too soon; i.e., with too much texture for the bird. I've done tow additional versions; one with no texture on the bird and one with considerably less than this first version. I think I like the reduced-texture one the best; glad for the comments of everyone else. |

You've captured a very inviting scene, and I'd love to take a swing and splash down into the pool! It shows ups as dark, but definitely turquoise on my monitor. Maybe a radial filter would bring out the colors a bit better and draw attention to the "target area" of the water. The slow shutter speed adds to the inviting nature of the image,with the silky appearance of the falls. |
