27 Feb 19 Comment I was referring to natural history NH images rather than textures.

By using masked adjustment layers it is easy to either increase the contrast on the leopard or reduce the contrast on the background. However the addition of the texture overlay reduces the contrast of the background. The left branch is an important part of the story as the leopard had been using it to conceal itself behind.

27 Feb 19 Comment I can see why the leaf attracted your attention to be included in the image, as it is a strong colour and therefore makes a good centre of interest. It may have made a stronger image if the whole of the leaf was included and the out of focus frost bottom left, left off as you have a death of field problem there, and it being out of focus draws the eye.
I think that your second version with all the fros in sharp focus is much better, though I would be inclined to darken down slightly the white background area on the right.		 Feb 21st
27 Feb 19 Comment What a superb reflection of the cliff and sky, the water must have been absolutely still. Usually a reflection such as this, depending on the angle of the viewpoint often appears to be much darker than the original scene especially if the sun is not very high in the sky. Feb 20th
27 Feb 19 Comment To me the monochrome treatment really suits this image, and the group of birds makes a very strong centre to hold the viewer's attention.

27 Feb 19 Comment An excellent composite image, you are fortunate to have 'dark sky' areas, where you can take images like this, we have very few here in the UK because there is so much light pollution from our towns and cities. To me the very bright area caused by car headlamps lets the image down and would be better toned down. Feb 20th
27 Feb 19 Comment Great Image. I really like the colour gradient across the the back wall and the character and their shadows. What I really like is that you have broken with tradition in having the main subjects walking out of the image with very little space ahead of them. But then so called photographic rules are to be broken provided we do not have narrow fixed minded judges. Feb 20th
