14 Aug 22 Reply Hello Xiao,

I prefer "active" shots, too. I'm just not good enough to capture them! That will be my next challenge.

Thanks for your comments.

He was, indeed, named after the famous British Prime Minister! He thinks he's in charge of everything!

Thanks for your comments.

14 Aug 22 Comment Hi Kamal,

OUCH - that's makes me hurt!

Great pose and terrific capture. I like the shoes, but the hair is distracting. I would love to see her lovely face the next time you shoot her!

I love your creativity...

14 Aug 22 Comment Hello Xiao,

Your edited version has an entirely different feel. It certainly brings our attention to the model's face. Great leading line of his leg, also.

Two really small nits:
1. The watch face that was mentioned earlier.
2. Add just a slight vignette to remove that bit of brightness in the upper left-hand corner.

This one is a winner! Great job.

14 Aug 22 Comment Hi Tom,

There is a definite moody/apocalyptic feel to this image. Great work in Photoshop.

I do have to agree with Darcy; I don't think I like that foreground so much. It keeps drawing my eye away from the real story in those eerie buildings along the horizon and that awesome moon. Try that foreground crop she suggests and see if a more panoramic shot gives you that same feel you're after.

Cool photo!

14 Aug 22 Comment Hi Darcy,

WOW! He is beautiful and beautifully captured! I love the composition and the placement on that leaf. The only thing I might suggest is removing that other small left to the right.

Wonderful shot!

Good point on that frisbee. That made me think... Everyone is bound to know it's a frisbee. Maybe I crop that corner of the photo to help focus on his eyes. Ya' really don't need to see the WHOLE thing!

Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for the reinforcement on the square crop! I liked it, but I may still try some different things before printing it for my neighbors.

I appreciate the feedback!

Good point on centering him. I have some extra real estate in the original. I might try a different, off-center crop.

Thank you!

14 Aug 22 Comment Hi Ingrid,

I agree that I would have never guessed this was a composite. Great job on combining two images.

I think it would benefit from a crop as well. Try bringing in the right side a bit to eliminate that lone tree. Having the right edge occur in the group of trees might give the illusion that they continue outside the frame.

I'm just a bit bothered by the legs of the horses on the left side. You might clone out the ones that seem to protrude from the belly of the brown horse. And, if you're up for a bigger challenge, also the ones that appear behind him/her.

I love the flow of the piece. great job!
