69 May 24 Reply Hi Diane,
I agree that seeing the landing spot would have added to the image. Unfortunately, these are split-second events and framing decisions. Furthermore, it really depends on how wide your lens will allow you to see the surroundings as one needs to very quickly zoom out as the Eagle is aiming in your direction. I added another image of this Bald Eagle on it's way to that spot.		 May 5th
69 May 24 Reply Hi Dean. This is a spot due West of Buffalo, NY (approx 2 hours). Let me know if you are interested to know more. May 5th
69 May 24 Comment Hi Diane,
I like how you cropped your image and kept the dingo well-lit. It would have been interesting to see the mom interacting with this pup, or interaction with other pups, as it would tell more of a story.
Nice image.		 May 4th
69 May 24 Comment Really nice capture and process. Would you have the original for comparison? May 4th
69 May 24 Comment Nice shot. I was sooooo... ready for that one, but unfortunately we had a very thick cloud coverage from my spot (my front yard) during this crucial phase....
Great result.		 May 4th
69 May 24 Comment Really nice and colorful birds. Nice crop and live action. Considering your considerable cropping and resizing, this is a great result. May 4th
69 May 24 Comment Thanks Jaswant,
I agree with you. 		May 1st

70 May 24 Comment This is a funny conversation as English is not the primary language for at least 3 members! I am still struggling with it! May 24th

70 May 24 Comment Thanks Kirk,
This is «Â new territory » for me. I like your modifications.

70 May 24 Reply Thanks Kirk, i agree with your suggestions. I am not used to these landscapes as I mainly lived on the North East (Quebec, Ontario and New York State). May 5th
70 May 24 Comment Very nice image. Ominous sky and scenery. I like the crop that you used. Did you add up a vignette? If so, this vignette might be a little too strong for my taste. There is a black line (probably from a bird in flight) on the top of your image (approximately 1/3 left) that I would remove.

70 May 24 Comment Hi Frans,
Thank you so much for providing the original image.
Maybe I am too much of a purist (or a stick in the mud!), but I am not a fan of sky replacement.
In this case, I agree that it was probably the easiest way to bring the mountain contours in the background. I tried to do the same without using sky swapping (selective masks, etc...). This is what I came out with using your small jpg file. 		May 5th
70 May 24 Comment Very nice. Greet feeling of cold, loneliness, and magnificence of the landscape. Reminds me of my trip to North East Greenland!
The birds (I think that these are Mures), are adding to the perspective.
You image might be very slightly tilted (I believe that the left side is a tad lower than the right side.)
Another WOW!		 May 5th
70 May 24 Comment Hi Geoff,
These are quite majestic peaks!
Nice preservation of the details in all light tones.
I would have like to see more details in the foreground, which is very hard to do when there is such a range in light intensity throughout the image.
I tried to do so, but with only limited success.		 May 5th
70 May 24 Comment Another good example of the long exposure effects. Nicely done. Great direction lines, framing, color palette, mood, etc...
The only suggestion would be to remove the Orange post in the water (right in the corner of the building base).
Great image.		 May 5th
70 May 24 Comment Hi Tami,
Beautiful scene with nice direction lines and color palette. The only suggestions I would make are:
1) that getting the sun right on prevents you to get details in the very bright spots. Just moving yourself a little bit to the left (or to the right) would have allowed you to hide the sun behind a leaf. 2) Furthermore, underexposing would also allow you to increase the richness of the colors.

As mentioned in previous submissions, I would normally bracket these scenes (various negative EV) and hide the sun behind something.		 May 5th
