8 Feb 24 Reply Thanks, Pinaki. Love your ICM work! Although this is multiple exposure rather than camera motion, I think the two techniques can create similar impressions. I also enjoy ICM, and look forward to your feedback when I get around to sharing one of those. Feb 11th
8 Feb 24 Comment I like your approach of having the outside full of light that streams in to illuminate Nandi. Your exposure eliminates what could be distracting details of the outside, leaving only hints of green that add to the happy mood. I think this would work even better if the highlights within Nandi's space were more controlled, so that the qualities of the horizontal stone surfaces behind Nandi were as visible as they are on the sides.

8 Feb 24 Comment I like it! I'm curious if the tilt is intentional? If so, I just want to say it works for me. Your guy is swaying to his right, and the tilt emphasizes that, and also the "wave" coming in on the wall upper right. Speaking of that wave, I like how the shape echoes the yin/yang symbols on his hat. If this were mine, I'd lighten the wall to the left of the door to give the door more separation from the background, because I think that door is an important framing element for the guy. Feb 10th
8 Feb 24 Comment I like the mix of fuzzy and sharp. The sharper lines provide a nice diagonal framework within which the fuzzy lines dance and play. Have you tried rotating it? I think I might like it better rotated 90 degrees clockwise, but I'm not sure ... Feb 10th
8 Feb 24 Comment What a wonderful moment, perfectly captured! The bird is sharp and has a captivating posture. The background is pleasingly soft, so f/5.6 looks like a great choice. Since the bird is looking down, I wish there were more space below the bird, and less above. If this were mine, I'd crop it, losing maybe a quarter off the top and halving the space on either side of the bird. Then I might clone out the dark area that would then be along the right edge of the frame. Do you allow yourself to clone out elements of your photos? Feb 10th
8 Feb 24 Comment I like those crossing shadows, and the whole idea of someone entering the frame just as someone else leaves the frame. Your shadow in the middle anchors the composition, while also making the image feel more personal. The equal space given to the feet entering and exiting the frame conveys a sense of intentionality. A happy accident indeed! Feb 10th
