22 Sep 21 Comment The main reason I cropped it the way I did was because in most competitions the "hand of man" -- the rail --is grounds for disqualification. Sep 30th
22 Sep 21 Comment Cannot argue with the others -- great shot! For some reason the exposed horns and the grass coming from his mouth, as small as they are, add to the impact of the image. I do like Joe's crop suggestion, though. A great pictorial example of life on the extreme edge. Did you take this shot from your car? PS: is there a slight blue cast overall? Sep 17th
22 Sep 21 Comment I wonder perhaps if the flowers should have been included, and in a vertical orientation. There's a nice rhythm in the placement of the plants and that might add to an otherwise static picture. Maybe move in the plants on the right a little and the butterfly might appear to have been "launched" upward. Sep 15th
22 Sep 21 Comment Quite a clever shot! The colors are right on. Also, the glass seems to have been remarkably clear and free of reflection. Love the interaction between two different species. I am a little confused (and not for the first time, I might add!) about the original. The lost original must have included the entire man, or else where did you find the "missing" parts of the figure to have been able to include him in the final? Sep 11th
22 Sep 21 Comment I think Mike and Joe are pretty much spot on in their comments. One of the things that I have learned over the years is that there are just times, however tempting, that it's probably not worth even attempting the shot, because you have a sense that the background is going to be just too distracting. Unless, unless, you have an idea to work on the subject in editing with the hope that you are going to isolate it through selection and then place it in a different background. Sep 10th
22 Sep 21 Comment Very, very nice shot. Good colors and setting, and the moose as an almost regal look about him. Overall the moose looks too dark on my monitor. I like what Al did with the moose in his treatment, but I think you're right about his background -- the yellows seem to bleed together and lose detail. The mountains in the background, as Mike points out, along with all of the foliage surrounding the moose serves as a great forming device. Indeed, you were close! How far from your car did you wander? The others were crazy trying to chase him. Any ranger catching them might have handed out heavy fines. Sep 10th
