Thank you Barbara. Yes, we had some interesting interaction with him. He is ambitious and told us that he wanted to be the "Sheikh" (read Lord/owner/ Big Man) of the place where he worked. We wished him luck...!! |

Thank you Ian, you have improved the image specially with the opening of the shadows in the darker part of his hair. Much appreciated. |

Hey Gaetan. Well spotted but some limitations in execution as stated by Butch. I have tried to strike a balance between what you wanted to see and what Butch suggested. A stronger silhouette of a subject, a lighter background....I am not sure what he meant when he stated "cleanly frame the sun within the branches in a graphic way". |

As usual much to learn from you Butch. I am going to look up George Noebeshi. I doubt I will ever get a view such as yours where I live....where it hardly rains and storms are a rarity we look forward to....Go figure.
Amazing approach, so much planning and almost perfect execution. I did feel that I was watching the approaching storm from within the car. The colours are great and the windshield idea was the highlight....a wish list...just a few drops on the windshield along with the smudged curve would be the cherry on the cake. I just thought that the dashboard was a tad on the bright side and so darkened that a bit to still give the presence of being in the car and yet not taking away anything from the spectacle that Mother Nature presented you with...!!! Great job. |

One image so many different opinions....but one thing is clear... you have a great image...as it can be interpreted in more ways than one. On this one I will move away from Butch's interpretation which itself stands on a strong ground. In my opinion the human subject is the main element with the lights in the ceiling and the curve of the platform being the leading lines. Everything else distracts. My eyes should stay on the three elements above with just a hint of the environment without taking away anything from the above three. My version included herewith. |

Hey Barbara. I will have to agree with Butch on this. The perch forms such a large portion of the image that the main subject is dwarfed in comparison. The bird is sharp, you have a nice catch light and the colours are brilliant. I removed the web as it was distracting without really adding to the image. I burnt the white a wee bit on the chest of the bird as it was also a bit washed out. I finally cropped the image to make the bird the main subject of the image. |

Lucky you Tomi to be so close to this marvellous creation. I see that you shot at 200 mm and to get this detail you must be pretty close. Fantastic image with the natural colours in the background and the droplets and details on the fluke. I was a wee bit confused with the two colours in the water till you mentioned that they were clouds. Good stuff. |

Thanks for sharing a lovely image Tom. I like your second edited version. Agree with Butch on the integrity of the truck being compromised by the branches inside the cabin. Your second edition also appeared to have toned down the red a bit sitting very nicely between the original colour and your first edit. I would have left the logs alone giving that bleached look indicating long hours in the sun. I also like the way the wheels are angled and the worn out threads still evident. I would definitely use this in a salon and called it "Forgotten Load'!!! |
