14 Jun 24 Reply Much better. Now clone out those distracting grasses on the chair and you're done. It's a nice portrait of a lovely child. Jun 15th
14 Jun 24 Comment Yes, crop the extraneous background out, and then with your clone stamp get rid of the distracting grasses in the foreground. Lovely child and good contrast with the whites. Jun 14th
14 Jun 24 Comment I like Tom's vignetting. Jun 13th
14 Jun 24 Comment Always fascinated by good graffiti. Unfortunate black blob in lower right corner is not helped by upping the exposure on the most colorful piece. You would have to have taken the photo from a slightly different angle. I would like to see more of the pieces on the left side, they seem interesting too. Jun 13th
14 Jun 24 Comment you might use AI to get rid of the out-of-focus branches in front of the gators face. Otherwise, nice crisp capture. Jun 13th
14 Jun 24 Comment I like your conversion. You might try darkening the pond to make it look like water. Perhaps up the contrast just a tad. As Tom noted, more clouds would be nice, but you'd have to add them. Jun 13th
14 Jun 24 Comment great view of an iconic feature, and I love the history lesson Jun 13th

21 Jun 24 Comment Oh just driving around collecting speeding tickets. This excursion was post 5-week safari with a local outfit. I'll send you a link to the photo blog. Jun 9th
21 Jun 24 Reply much better with the darkened background. Jun 9th
21 Jun 24 Reply you are right about the highlights. Don't know quite why this version looks so bright, nearly blown-out. Jun 9th
21 Jun 24 Comment This was such a large format photo originally, I notice with the 1MB limit it is very pixelated when viewed here. I have it printed 30 inches long and it looks much better than this. Alas, sorry. Jun 9th
21 Jun 24 Comment Nice action shot, lovely penguin. Water foam a bit bright, but am sure that's what it looked like. Lucky you to get to go there. Jun 9th
21 Jun 24 Comment Oh Jeez, they just are sooo gorgeous. He looks like an almost grown-up. Like the over the shoulder capture. You got all the colors. Jun 9th
21 Jun 24 Comment Beautiful birds, cardinals, just beginning to migrate into Colorado in the last decade.
This pair is sadly not in very good focus at least on my computer, and sort of lost in the busy background.

21 Jun 24 Comment We get a lot of these in the CO foothills in the winter, they go farther north for the summer. They are cute little guys. Background does work well with the bird. However, not sure how artistic it is to have a bird at a feeder? Jun 9th
21 Jun 24 Comment We don't have these, it's a beauty and I love the open mouth. Maybe a little dark at the head, but that's all I have to say about this lovely hawk photo. Jun 9th

38 Jun 24 Comment Lovely image, but I think you have a leopard there in the tree. You might say where you took the photo. Jun 5th

94 Jun 24 Reply Thanks Sherri, it is definitely a weird plant. Jun 12th
94 Jun 24 Reply Well Peter, I think the whole animal looks a bit grey probably because it was taken in the dark. The rhino could be pepped up a little. I would say take it into Levels and use the sliders to decide what looks good to you. Dark background is nice. Or try shadows/highlights and see what that looks like. Or even select the rhino and try brightness/contrast to see what happens. Pick your favorite. The joys of Photoshop! Jun 9th
94 Jun 24 Comment Indigo buntings are lovely birds. Unfortunately this one is a bit out of focus, and looking away from the camera. Perhaps it was there and gone before you had a chance to get more shots? Jun 9th
94 Jun 24 Comment Lucky you to see this. Good action, good water drops, needs to be sent through Levels in PS to lighten it up a bit.
I don't use Lightroom so maybe can be done there as well?
Jun 9th
94 Jun 24 Comment A great shot. I've never seen them with throat sac extended, and appreciate your description of how it's done. Focus on bird excellent, knowing how difficult it is to get a shot through all the branches. Curious why you chose a light vignette? Jun 9th
94 Jun 24 Comment Tack sharp for the whole bird, in flight...quite a coup! I'd say it was a good day of shooting. Background is very nice, presumably with trees behind it. Harder to catch the flying bird with stuff behind it. Impressive. Jun 9th
