17 Jan 24 Comment A colourful creature set against a very suitable background.The framing is good and the chameleon is nicely in focus. I like the tail ed around the branch. Jan 14th
17 Jan 24 Comment What an interesting name for a waterfall. I like the way you have captured the water as it tumbles down between the green foliage. As others have said a bit more space for it to fall into would have been nice. Jan 14th
17 Jan 24 Comment A perfect sky to capture these birds against. The birds are nice and sharp and well positioned in the frame as they fly in formation.Your trip paid off. Jan 14th
17 Jan 24 Comment The colours of this picture have great impact. The low autumnal sun has given us nice lighting. I like the composition with the track leading the eye into the distance. Jan 14th
17 Jan 24 Comment A spectacular fungi that just had to have its picture taken.The colour is really eye catching. I am not too sure of its size. Whilst the ground around the fungi is sharp the fungi its self seems to go a touch soft towards the top. Jan 14th
17 Jan 24 Comment A nice silhouette against the morning sky. The sun has been carefully positioned so as not to draw the eye and dominate the picture. I like the way the boat fills the frame. The title obviously refers to the flag, but this is not to clear, maybe it could be lightened a touch. I would not lighten anything else. Jan 14th

19 Jan 24 Reply Stan. I believe the wall was much higher when it was built. Many years of locals taking stones for other purposes and parts collapsing has led to the current state, which is now a preserved site many miles long. Jan 19th
19 Jan 24 Comment I like this a lot. I love all the movement as it conveys the bustle of a busy concourse. Then we have the violinist with a small group of onlookers. It is a great story picture. Jan 15th
19 Jan 24 Comment A portrait with a story. I like it just the way it is. Jan 15th
19 Jan 24 Comment A well seen picture. I would concur with Jay regarding a crop, but maybe not quite so severe. Jan 15th
19 Jan 24 Comment I have dabbled with ICM, but not successfully as yet. I appreciate the creativity and the way you have used the technique to overcome security constraints. Keep experimenting. Jan 15th
19 Jan 24 Comment I like this just the way it is. At first glance I wondered about cropping out the top, but on reflection I would keep it. I like the colours, including that nice sky reflection in the glass, it works particularly we;; on the door. Jan 15th
19 Jan 24 Comment I have to agree to some extent with Adi's suggestion of a crop. I would maybe not go quite so tight. As the head is grey then I do not think a monochrome version would work quite as well. I can definitely see the appeal in taking this picture. Jan 15th
19 Jan 24 Reply Thanks Norm. see my reply to Adi about the water. Jan 8th
19 Jan 24 Reply Thanks Adi. I do see what you mean about the water. My original composition was to include the water as it showed a quarry that had removed half of the hill that the wall crossed. The quarry came long after the wall in the days before preserving the wall was even considered. Jan 8th
