43 Jul 24 Comment Hello Lane. I really like your image. You made a good "atmospheric" choice. I think fog is a great time to take photos. You photo is a perfect B&W. All the tones are there. The photo is soft and peaceful. "The day is done". I think the dock is trying to steal this photo. I suggest dodging the dock. Jul 16th
43 Jul 24 Comment Well! You are showing us a bird that isn't at his or her best. This is what I look like when I get up in the morning. This is good story telling and is showing a different view based on the behavior. It is almost Wabi Sabi. I like what you did with the background. The eye is perfect as is the crop. Very sharp and wonderful light. Jul 16th

You certainly have given this thought. The rotar blages are certainly a factor. When using a long lens I try to use a monopod. It keeps the camera steady and you can still "react" to your subject. I think you did everything right here. I like the tighter crop suggested by Harley. I think Bunny will hereafter be the official Group 43 research person.

You are becoming a master urban photographer. There is a lot going on here and it is all good! The fog seems to be a buffer seperating the urban environment from the sky. There are multiple leading lines! A very sharp and exciting image. You used a very wide angle lens and got some distortion on the edges. This can be fixed in Photoshop. I used "transform" and "warp".I read that Hong Kong is the most expensive city to live in. My hometown of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is the most affortable.

43 Jul 24 Comment Thye crop is excellent. The background isn't a distraction and complements the gull. The gull is white so the the overexposed areas on the tail, head and wing feathers is hard to avoid. I would try to burn in some detail there if at all possible. I like the detail in the wings. The eye and beak are very sharp. That it has something in the beak is special here. Overall the image is ellegant. Jul 15th
43 Jul 24 Comment Hello Bruce. I tried to comment on your photo a couple of days ago but for some reason I was unable to. This photo has IMPACT! There is absolutely no doubt as to the subject! It is as if you had a mirroe under one of the planes. The higher ISO paid off with a very sharp image. I have a suggestion. I think these jets need some room on the left. The exhaust doesn't really add anything and in fact seems to be slowing the planes down. Jul 15th
43 Jul 24 Comment Thank you Harley. I good correction. These owls are constantly checking their surroundings. They could be a meal for a Harris Hawk. Jul 15th
