37 Sep 23 Comment Nice shot. The comment on negative space reminds me I have been told by mentor judge's don't like negative space. (But I do). I go with the advice on moving the bird and cropping in to get the elements bigger. I think it's a very good photo and that will make it better.

I think. you can crop from the right even if you didn't move the bird.

I can't tell if the bright white thing on the ship--lifeboat maybe?--and parts of the clouds are a bit bright. But I'd tone them down. I darkened most of the areas a bit with PhotoShop so I don't think most is actual blown out although a bit of the sky may be

37 Sep 23 Comment Nice cropping of a very good scene. I'd agree onthe size of the photo. I would simply resize it. At a larger size it is much more dramatic. Just clicking on it and blowing it up shows it will look very good in a larger format.

Do you use Topaz Sharpen? It looks like it could take some sharpening, especially on the peaks. I'd tone down the highlights. There's a lot of glow in the clouds and it looks like that could be from processing. I'm not sure. Also maybe a run through Topaz DeNoise just for safety's sake.

37 Sep 23 Comment Very nice image. I would crop tighter, especially on the right. I don't think you need all that shrubbery. I'd probably clone out the white stone you can see between the feet of the first two on the left. It almost looks like a line of one solid stone Sep 22nd
37 Sep 23 Comment Nice image. As said, not the sharpest. I would tone done the glare on the seal's forehead--whether reducing highlights or burning a bit

I would probably try lightening the eyes a bit--don't know if that will work with this set of eyes

37 Sep 23 Comment Yeah, I thought about doing something with the back paw. but then didn't
As I remember it was a tough day for trying a lower f/stop and I need to boost the ISO as it was to freeze the action
