17 Sep 22 Comment A great little moment in this bears short life. Who is watching who. I really like it just the way it is. Sep 19th
17 Sep 22 Comment Very much a European influence on the 3 architects of this magnificent building. Not the look of a building that I associate with New York. The sky adds to the picture. A nice record of an impressive building. Sep 19th
17 Sep 22 Comment A clever bit of work on using the tipis for the background. Having seen the original and you reworked version following Peters suggestion, I prefer the rework version. The subject looks better against a clearer background and the light balance is better. Sep 19th
17 Sep 22 Comment A nice punchy portrait of the angler and his catch. The scene is set by the background and the story is completed with the inclusion of all his fishing gear and the other fish in his bag. Sep 19th
17 Sep 22 Comment I like this, it appeals to my sense of humour. The shoes to one side add balance but also make me wonder, 'why so close to the water'. The people although there faces are hidden give the impression of being in conversation.
It is a pleasing bit of story telling to which the viewer can make up there own version.

17 Sep 22 Comment Thanks for the comments, I appreciate what you have said about blurring the background, it is something I need to learn about as so far I have never done that. Sep 19th

19 Sep 22 Comment What simplicity. The matching stroke is a touch of genius.Well lit and well composed. Sep 19th
19 Sep 22 Comment A nice simple flower arrangement competently photographed. The choice of background is good as is the lighting. One slight niggle is that I feel a little more space is needed at the top as the red flowers are a bit close to the edge for me. Sep 19th
19 Sep 22 Comment This has been well taken. I can imagine your trepidation at being so close to the bees. The position of the beekeeper and the way he is holding the part of the hive (its technical name escapes me)is good, it does not look posed. I think it is an excellent illustration of the beekeeper at work. Sep 19th
19 Sep 22 Comment One can see why this is called Cathedral Rocks, the shapes do look like a cathedral. Well done for the effort of getting down to include the reflection in the remarkably still pool of water. You have got a good balance of colour and exposure between the scene and its reflection. Sep 19th
19 Sep 22 Comment A magnificent building which we are led towards by the curved wall. Your work on the corner was un-noticed by me until you mentioned it, so it must have worked. The time of year has not helped for me, the foliage is full and bright hiding some of the building and also the blinds on the window spoil the splendour of the frontage. Sep 19th
19 Sep 22 Comment I like the toning on this picture, it takes away the bright distraction of the flowers natural colour and lets us look at the beauty of the detail. Is there too much in the picture ?. well maybe for my taste I would take a touch off the bottom but otherwise it is fine by me. Sep 19th
