69 Oct 20 Comment I Greoffrey,
I agree with all the above comments. I am curious about his eye. Is this a reflection of his cheek on the lower portion of his eye? I would tone down, if not over exposed, the top if it's head and neck.
Beautiful bird. So sad about all the fires.

69 Oct 20 Comment Nicely done, even with a slow shutter speed.
I personally like the vertical crop but would tone down a bit the highlights around the stem. Really nice light.
Love it!

69 Oct 20 Comment I completely agree with all the previous comments. Very nice progression in learning how to edit photography.
As a suggestion: When looking in your vewfinder/screen, try to work on your composition - odd numbers are mentioned above are normally more appealing. In the original imabe the marble edge could have been avoided and the top flower could have been included. I really like how you remove distrators, although a little too much darkening on the upper end.
Great. Keep on practicing.

69 Oct 20 Comment I love it. Just wonderful.
This bird is thinking: Don't mess with me - I am a Raptor!
The dark background and soft light accentuate the feeling of power in this bird. Very nice texture.

69 Oct 20 Comment Thank you for all these comments and suggestions. I totally agree with the grass is a little too saturated and bright. Oct 16th
69 Oct 20 Comment Beautiful, serene, energizing, calming, fantastic...
Very nice lines, soft colors, reflection (was it from water or heat?)
I do not have any problem with the off center panoramic view. The reflection line/horizon is very suiting at half height.
I do not mind the other photographer. Could be a way to interest children in searching for it! (p.s.: I work with children all day....)

69 Oct 20 Comment Could he be practicing tai-chi or yoga? I love skin texture brought up by the light. This could also be great as a B&W.
Very nicely done.

p.s.: As a Urologist, I noted that there is an "extra" hind leg. To answer Dean, I think I know what he was thinking about!

70 Oct 20 Comment Nice work. I love your cropping. For my own taste, this is a little oversaturated.

70 Oct 20 Comment Lovely. I like the offsetting of your very wide angle capture. The way you did it minimize the curving of the forefront hedge and put the flowers in a better perspective. Nice sky and texture of this barn. Very nice donkeys adding to this contry context. Oct 16th
70 Oct 20 Comment Very nice. I normally use bracketing - multiple images with significant underexposure to try keeping the details in the bright area (sun).
I like the composition and mood. Very realistic.

70 Oct 20 Comment WOW! Lovely orange hour + patterns + farmers silhouettes and mirror image. Nice texture/details. Calming. Story telling. This is the kind of image that transport me in another word.
Very well mastered. Congratulation!

70 Oct 20 Comment Hi Todd,
I really like your composition. All in focus. Moody. Nice gradations.
I like your idea of a B&W conversion with the light is on the harsh side (the colors become undersaturated/washed out anyway...).
Thanks for sharing.

70 Oct 20 Comment Thanks for these nice comments. I really like the change of seasons. I am pretty sure that I would miss the snow and the mood variations that the changes of seasons is providing. Oct 16th
70 Oct 20 Comment Hi Lamar,
I agree with the above comments. Interesting reflection on our views been tinted with the present Covid pandemic. Parent and child on both side railings closer in proximity and lonely adult far from everyone.
In general, animal separation is more appealing in nature photography.
Interesting hybrid of Nature/Landscape photography. Well handled.
I agree with Kathryn - maybe "un-sharpening" the right railing would help.

70 Oct 20 Reply You are funny....
I love photography during cold weather. The air is dryer, leading to less haze/better clarity. 32F is not that bad, providing that one wear appropriate clothing.
It is less pleasant once the temperature is below 0F, especially if it is windy (in open space)
Tips:
1) Dress warmly - multiple layers - breathable material (otherwise one can become sweaty on long walks and then get cold because of this) - avoid cotton (wool is very nice).
2) Nice to have thin gloves, to provide access to the camera functions associated with a mitten allowing to expose the fingers temporarily. Windproof material helps. It is also possible to insert finger warmers in the portion of the mitten that can flip
3) always carry several extra batteries - keep them right on you to keep them warm. cold temperatures
4) do not change your lens.... cover the camera and wait for it to get warm back home before opening - this is to avoid condensation (needed for very cold temperatures)
Thanks for the cropping suggestion.
