60 Jun 24 Reply Tim,
It is a great image (your last month photo). I am glad it was recognized.

60 Jun 24 Reply Yes, three of anything is usually better than two for photography. Jun 13th
60 Jun 24 Comment Tim,
With the extension tube the depth of field becomes smaller (I assume) so the focus stacking works well here. I like the strong diagonal composition and the muted background against the nicely lighted onion flower. I hope you got to eat the onion too.

60 Jun 24 Comment Rita,
This is a pleasing (early spring/late fall?) landscape. I think your crop was well selected. The sky and clouds are lovely and I like how the eye is lead from the foreground to background by the sinuous shoreline and the water (which I think is the main subject). The dark trees and reddish shrubs provide nice contrast - well done. As usual, I might place a light vignette around the image.

69 Jun 24 Comment Thanks Pierre - the crop dilemma. Jun 5th
69 Jun 24 Comment Dianne,
I like the b/w contrast within the feathers of this pelican. I would like to see an image of this bird in flight. With their big wingspan they are quite amazing in flight. I agree with Pierre that, if there is room in the frame, including more of the reflection would be helpful.

69 Jun 24 Comment Jaswant,
A harrowing story. The bit of blood on the lower lip of the lioness makes this image much more interesting. One wonders if that was just after the other photographer was eaten:).
I might remove that lighted twig to the left of the lioness.

69 Jun 24 Comment Cindy,
Everything about this bird, even the rear, is colorful and sharp. The pads provide a nice environmental context.
I don't understand your question about resizing (resolution). I think when you crop in the resolution decreases unless pixels are added somehow. I would crop and then, in LR, export. In the export dialogue there are some choices to specify the resolution. I just specify the export to be less than 1024 and then I recheck the exported file to be sure.

69 Jun 24 Comment Pierre,
I agree; flies usually at not very compelling subjects for photos unless you can get in at the macro level. However, your shot is an exception because the green leaf, with its texture, lines, and lighting, provides an excellent backdrop for the sharp fly. I like the iridescence in the wings too.
Are these biting flies?

69 Jun 24 Comment Mervyn,
You definitely captured a great frame for the calf. That framing is the center of interest so I might even crop in a bit more from the left side. It is never easy to know where to exactly draw the line.
