26 Aug 25 Comment Thanks for your comments.
I agree that the bright area at the bottom should be removed.
Here is an updated version with straightening the building.

26 Aug 25 Reply This is a totally different presentation and does not show the size of the sculpture. Here it could be 6" tall!
I wanted the building to provide a sense of scale.

26 Aug 25 Comment I love the movement that you have created, and the expression that you captured.
I don't think the gas cylinders add anything to the composition. They are only meaningful to you as you were there. I would remove them, especially the one on the left.

26 Aug 25 Comment The orange shirt and its reflection make this a compelling composition.
I would like to see more contrast in the background.

26 Aug 25 Comment Shooting into the sun has created a wonderful mood to this image. Good idea to convert to black and white.

I would crop out the dark wall on the left as I think this would create a stronger composition.

26 Aug 25 Comment Good composition by focusing in on a small portion of the aloe.
I would like to see more contrast to accentuate the tones.

26 Aug 25 Comment Everything works well for you here and the cell phone proves that it is more than adequate for this type of picture. The 2 people are in a good position to create a center of interest. Aug 6th
26 Aug 25 Comment This is perfect use of your drone so that you have presented a composition that would not have been possible otherwise.
The afternoon lighting is beautiful, and the road leading out to infinity completes the composition.
I love Tuscany and can't wait to return there.

69 Aug 25 Comment Diane, the waterdrops make this image stand out from the ordinary. Not always easy to get the correct exposure on a white subject, but you are spot on with this one. Aug 6th
69 Aug 25 Comment This is a nice clean presentation. However, I would love to see more images taken with your new camera! Aug 6th
69 Aug 25 Comment Cindy, it looks like you had a wonderful trip to Madagascar.
What an interesting looking chameleon! I love that ed up tail, and imagine it can stretch out some distance.
The color palette is pleasing with just enough separation from the background.

My only complaint are those small bright circles above his nose. They are easy to clone out or darken. Or you could crop a little closer to the head. That would also eliminate the unnecessary branch in the top right corner.

69 Aug 25 Comment Everything works to your advantage in this Oriole presentation. The lighting is lovely, the bokeh is perfect, and the angle of the birds position is good. The curved perch of the feeder that it is standing on adds an extra dimension. Aug 6th
69 Aug 25 Comment Hi Dean,
You've done a good job cropping and sharpening the main subject. The lighting is good and appears to be early morning.
It is always difficult to photograph birds high up in a tree as you can never get a decent angle. As you can see here, the emphasis is on the underbelly of the bird and not the head.
