87 Jan 23 Comment Good morning! Great image! I like the overall composition and the details throughout the photo. The color is excellent as well. Thanks for sharing. Jan 16th
87 Jan 23 Comment Good morning...excellent image and great story line! I like the camera angle on this, which allows me to also see the sky at dusk. I also like your handling of the individual lights...not too bright or overreaching. I always have trouble with this aspect of a holiday photo. Thanks for sharing! Jan 16th
87 Jan 23 Comment Good morning...Great image! I like the sharpness of the bird as well as the shallow depth of field. The composition is excellent. I agree with the others in removing the leaf and perhaps making the branch next to the bird not as bright. Excellent work..thanks for sharing! Jan 16th
87 Jan 23 Comment Good morning Steven...great image! I like the sharp details throughout. I also believe that the B&W version is perfect for this photo. In my opinion, the sky as you have shown is perfect for this photo. A more detailed cloud structure could possibly be a distraction (my thoughts). As it is, I can focus more on the mountain structures, trees, and other details of this photo. Excellent image...thanks for sharing! Jan 16th
87 Jan 23 Comment Good morning Chan...I would definitely consider this image art! This is very creative in taking something that you see everyday and making an artistic expression of it. I agree with others that the conversion to B&W enhances the quality of this photo. I truly appreciate your creativity...I am learning a lot! Jan 16th
87 Jan 23 Comment Good Morning... I really like these images! The main photo of the ice has great detail and tonal contrast. As others have noted, I also like the blue hue as this adds to the feeling of the cold climate as a part of the overall scene.

The original is also very interesting. I think the B&W conversion on this adds to the quality of the image.

Thank you again for posting thoughtful, creative photos that allows me to think!		 Jan 16th
87 Jan 23 Reply Thanks Chan! The Creating Competitive Images course is a great course, very challenging. I had an excellent instructor and learned a great deal from this course. Jan 16th
87 Jan 23 Reply Thanks Lance! I agree that the angle is a little too severe and should be adjusted, which would create a whole different effect. I hadn't noticed the spots of dust, thanks for pointing this out to me. As I mentioned to Cindy, I was probably more interested in completing an assignment for the class and moved too quickly. Thanks for your input and teaching me valuable lessons in my photography growth! Jan 6th
87 Jan 23 Reply Thanks Steven! That is a great idea to adjust the lighting to create a fade into darkness effect! I'll definitely work on that on the next photo. Thanks for your input! Jan 6th
87 Jan 23 Reply Thanks Jennifer! Jan 6th
87 Jan 23 Reply Thanks Cindy! I hadn't noticed the rings before, but should have. I needed to adjust the lighting to handle this. I was probably more interested in completing an assignment for the class and moved too quickly. Thanks for your input! Jan 6th
