A remarkable family portrait. I have never seen anything like it. |

Nice composition, good subject, and interesting counterpoint with the sky.
Please do tell us where this is, what the building is if you know, and the architect's name if it happened to be on a plaque on the wall or you know it. These things are so interesting if you add them to the story. Thanks. |

I don't know about the technical problems, but the finished image is very charming and successful as is.
Please tell the story of where and what this is and if you have a relationship with the dancer or the dance group. It's very interesting to hear those parts of the story of getting the shot. |

Great composition. Good eye to have spotted it.
Do you have any shots of the vendors as well? |

All very interesting, both your image and your colleagues' comments.
It is interesting that the picture frame appears to frame nothing at all but the plain wall behind it. I think it is great to keep the picture frame, but the question of cropping out the top edge is enormous. First of all, the presence of the incomplete picture frame adds tension and discusses infinity in an otherwise tranquil composition. This is a great idea. Cropping out the top edge would be a significant change. I tried it both ways, and my sense of disquiet was different for each, to my surprise. |

The shadows of the four-section window frames on the evidently drawn shades inside add a lot to the rectangular complexity of this image. |

Nicely done, the wall texture and the shadow.
How about the story of where you were and how you got there? It is great fun to travel the world with DD images. Thanks. |

Nice shot. I also love to shoot ropes.
Suggest you include the rope ends because they tell the story of how well the sailors have cared for their ropes. |

Nicely done, better in monochrome than in color.
I enjoy visiting interesting places with you. |

This approach is high drama. Well done.
The ends of both wings and the talons are just barely separated from the black background.
My automatic thought to suggest a white stroke border does not apply here, because I really like that the eagle is poised on an infinite black background. |

This is a nice portrait of the lynx, in a good pose.
But I like the blue streaks of sky in the original, which don't come through in the monochrome.
Also, I think somehow some of the longer fur is blurry. Did you shoot very slow, or was a strong wind blowing waving the fur? |

Yes, I think your square crops gets just the right picture.
But I did like the brightness of the sky in your color original, and wish a bit more of that came through in the monochrome. |

Thank you for the story. I like to travel around the world with the photographers in the DD groups.
One more thing if you don't mind. What was the period of the invasion, and who were the invaders? Mughals, or earlier? |

This is a charming view. I wish you would tell the story of this place, and your hike, if you took one, to reach your viewpoint. Is that you, a friend, or a stranger? Is the place dear to you? Stories enliven these DD images. Thank you. |

I really like this. It is a classic shot of a time gone by, yet still preserved in many present-day diners here and there across the country.
Are you aware that you have shot this when the worker is in the exact same position as the worker in the famous Edward Hopper painting, Nighthawks? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Nighthawks_by_Edward_Hopper_1942.jpg

I am going out there with my grand-kids soon. I remember those engines from previous visits. I am inspired by you to try a few serious shots like this. Maybe also a perspective shot of the Blackbird. |

Good shot and a good location for your shot.
About the shutter speed. Since the action was approaching you, as opposed to crossing in front of you), there is much less blurring from the action. |

What an interesting travel shot.
Are those calcium carbonate terraces, called travertines, or something else? |

You have rendered lovely colors of the statue and similar tones in the landscape, a nice combination.
I suggest considering removing some of the left. The people? The bush? The railing? The wall to which the railing is attached? Not sure how much, if any, of that you like, but I like the isolated serenity of the statue. I am personally fond of architectural shots empty of people. |
