I forgot to "work the subject" and take various views such as zooming in. A zoo is a good place to use very long telephoto, for sure. Next time! Thanks for the reminder. |

I hadn't thought of how clean and neat she looked as compared to her being photographed in her natural, non-zoo environment. Good point! She was sufficiently scary in person! I appreciated her hairdo and manicure only when looking at the photo! |

You found a great pose! Nice capture of those eyes and whiskers. The eyes are at the right place according to the rule of thirds. An impactful pose! As with most tree branch pictures, the bright spots shining through the branches and leaves are distracting. I know it is hard to darken and soften them enough, but here is my attempt. I decreased the contrast and texture and clarity and whites and brightness. I brightened the animal and added more texture. |

This composition makes it an easy photo to look at and comprehend. There's a group of the main fish. Then the group of people all posing about the same way. I laughed when I saw everyone holding a phone-camera! That's what tourists look like nowadays. So different from a couple decades ago! This image almost looks like you purposely chose and placed those size people to make the spectator silhouette. The lighting has no glare distractions. Perfect for the aquarium's brochure! |

Hey, everyone - click once on her photo! It will be displayed really big! See the cute twin baby elephants even bigger and better!
I'm fascinated by the written description about elephant twins! A wonderful find for our zoo theme. I appreciated them so much more when I saw the enlarged version on my screen. Their faces were so impactful when I saw them without the large expanse of very light background and rock. One way to post edit such an environment is to darken and blur it a little. Here's my quick edited photo. You can click once on it to make it larger. Then close it by clicking once on the word close at the bottom. |

So adorable! You've given us a creative view of the animals in the zoo. I'm impressed by how sharp and clear the lights are. I can't ever seem to do that! Did you use automatic exposure? The blue border is perfect. |

Welcome to our study group, Bunny! This line-up of elephants walking by are a great subject. For me, the 2 baby elephants are the special part of this image. I think the picture could be improved by making the elephants stand out more. They are the same brightness as the background and foreground. I made a different version by darkening them and also editing out a few bright spots in the background. The elephants' backs were quite bright, so I darkened them, too Finished with a very slight black vignette. I may have overdone the effect, but perhaps you could do a similar kind of brushing on the darkening in LR and see what you like. Thanks for your first image with us. That was a great description. Hope you get some good tips. We love seeing "real" animals in the jungle! |
