58 Mar 24 Comment Hi Ed -- I would suggest cropping tighter to eliminate the white area on the right and the bright spots along the bottom. Mar 24th
58 Mar 24 Comment Hi Bev -- I would suggest cropping more closely, mainly to reduce the promenence of the "belga" sign, but also to bring more attention to his face. Mar 24th
58 Mar 24 Comment Hi Isaac -- The first thing I saw was the lady on the left with her arms crossed who seems to be giving her opinion about something. That then led my eye to the seated man with the fancy glasses. Then the stars of the scene, the dogs were finally revealed! An interesting narrative to contemplate. Mar 13th
58 Mar 24 Comment Hi Bruce -- I have lots of pictures of children taken in public places. I would - and have - occasionally used such an image in these discussion groups, but I would likely not use it in anything published (not that I have images published, but just on general principles). I agree with Sergio's edit. The missing feet don't bother me and this crop puts more attention on the face/expression -- he's whistling while he works! I also like the stairway showing; it gives more information about the setting. Mar 13th
58 Mar 24 Comment Hi Pinaki -- I agree with Sergio's crop. The repetition of the lovely shape of the earthen jars is very appealing to me. Nice work. Mar 13th
58 Mar 24 Comment Sergio- I love this image. It is dynamic and has immediacy and movement. You present it in color; and I think it looks good in color; but in my opinion it would also be a good monochrome subject. Congratulations on a nice capture. Mar 8th
58 Mar 24 Reply Thanks, Sergio. I see your point about the noise in the jacket. Your edit looks good. I appreciate your feedback. Gracias! Mar 8th

99 Mar 24 Reply Hi John -- I also wished for more of his face but didn't realize it until later when I looked at it on the computer; I probably could have done something. Oh well. Thanks for the nice feedback. Mar 24th
99 Mar 24 Reply Linda -- thanks so much for your thoughtful feedback. The vignetting you propose really creates a different mood. I wish I could give this guy a copy of this image. It shows off his bike pretty well and I bet he'd like it. Alas, this was taken several years ago and we were just strangers passing through. Mar 24th
99 Mar 24 Reply Hi Gerard -- I see the point about the white line. The subject would work just as well without it. Mar 24th
99 Mar 24 Reply Thanks, Barbara! Mar 24th
99 Mar 24 Comment Linda -- I love your bird portraits. Wonderful detail of those deadly talons, the pattern of the feathers, and the twisted branch. Excellent. Mar 24th
99 Mar 24 Comment Hi Peter -- What a neat opportunity to make a nice portrait of this interesting-looking gentleman. I like that you enlisted his cooperation and were able to get a good formal portrait rather than if you had been stealth and used a long lens without his knowledge. I like the tone and what you did with the background. Beautiful details of the lines around his eyes and beard. Congratulations! Mar 24th
99 Mar 24 Comment Hi Gerard -- this is lovely; cold and minimalist. I wouldn't change a thing. Mar 24th
99 Mar 24 Comment Hi Barbara -- To me this looks like an illustration in a children's book because the deer look like creatures in an enchanted forest. The vignetting gives it an other-worldly feel. Lovely. Mar 13th
