21 Mar 24 Comment It is good to see the well-lit eye as the duck turns it's head. The reflection is nicely caught too. Mar 15th
21 Mar 24 Comment Super depiction of this colourful bird. Compositionally, I think the fact that the bird's beak points directly to the top corner is perfect and no adjustment to the top area is needed. Background is well diffused, and if any adjustment was needed, I might have included the bottom of the right-hand leaf that disappears out of the frame! Mar 15th
21 Mar 24 Comment A good pose from the bird, but the face is a little indistinct in shadow, and Tom's suggestion improves this immensely! Mar 15th
21 Mar 24 Comment Super sharp shot of a totally different tree sparrow to those that we get in UK. The bird is shown in it's surroundings, but is so well depicted I wonder if cropping might make it even more attractive? Mar 15th
21 Mar 24 Comment Although the young bird does merge into the background, it does demonstrate the way that camouflage helps to provide protection. I enjoyed viewing an interesting bird. Mar 15th
21 Mar 24 Comment A lovely capture of a bonding pair. Their eyes are especially well portrayed. Background has been kept to an unobtrusive minimum. As close to perfection as is possible. Beautiful image! Mar 15th

34 Mar 24 Reply I did a mono version and couldn't decide whether to use it instead. More threatening? Mar 4th
34 Mar 24 Comment I like what you have done to the good original. I am not so keen on the grey areas of the skirt of one woman and the bag of the other on the left, and I would consider a red psychedelic fill in would work better! For me, the girls on the left are better portrayed than those on the right. Do you really need the mirrored girls on the right at all? I think the image would still work well with the original space on the right hand side without the mirrored area, but with the psychedelic base. For me it is a great start, with further possibilities! Mar 2nd
34 Mar 24 Comment I like this a lot. There is so much for the eye to explore. The muted colour scheme works well, and the stars at the ends of the 'sunrays' are beautifully constructed. I might consider lowering the tower and crow so that the crow is looking up slightly at the 'sun'? Another of the images that one can't imagine anyone else but you to have taken! Lovely! Mar 2nd
34 Mar 24 Comment For me this works much better than last month's dance. The composition is great and there is a great sense of movement. The colours are beautiful and vibrant. I think it would be interesting to see if flipping the front dancer to face left would work as an alternative? Lovely image! Mar 2nd
34 Mar 24 Comment The mono version accentuates her beautiful eyes which seem to fix on the viewer. You have created an image of Phoenix which the whole family will love! I like the angle of her head within the frame too. Creativity has been achieved in a perfect way! Mar 2nd
34 Mar 24 Comment That car has provided you with some great colours! You have accentuated this well in Original 2 which works well in it's own right. I like the crop which makes a square image, and a beautiful abstract. Mar 2nd
34 Mar 24 Comment This is cleverly done and works well. I would be inclined to eliminate the gent's moustache which is cutting across the centre of the image, and I'm not sure that I like the choice of border. All else is great! Mar 2nd
