10 Nov 18 Reply Thank you ! I wasn't sure how this one would "fly" (or not). Nov 23rd
10 Nov 18 Comment It's a little trick I learned when I took an online class through Bryan Peterson Photo -- very helpful ! sometimes you have to clone or repair a bit but it does work ! Nov 16th
10 Nov 18 Reply You can actually make a slightly larger size, leave room at top, (I'm talking Photoshop here), click on top where it says "content aware" and then press your "Enter" or return button and it will add content at the top. I'm submitting an example to show you what I mean. Nov 15th
10 Nov 18 Comment I think it's really a striking image, dramatic even without the raindrops. I'd love to know what F stop you used? It seems that the entire bird is in focus but the background is blurred, I'd love to know how you did that. Can you let us know a little more about how you captured this image? It's really beautiful. Also where were you when you took it? Nov 11th
10 Nov 18 Comment There's a lot to look at in this picture. The background, in particular the whitish background to the right, are distracting to me. The water droplet itself is pretty cool, except that what's reflected in it is not especially attractive (a white stem?) . It might have helped to move around, find something in the water droplet that was more colorful, and really get in close and make the water droplet your main focus. Nov 11th

10 Nov 18 Comment I think your exposure is spot-on, good saturation, etc. But I just don't think what's see through the window is all that remarkable. Too bad there weren't some Canada Geese out there. I would have liked to see something through the window that really grabbed my attention other than the garden sculpture. Nov 11th
10 Nov 18 Comment I love those baobob trees, they are so beautiful. The sky is really nice, too. The Giraffe in front of the tree blends in so well with the tree color that I didn't notice it right away. I know you can't tell the animals where to stand and they aren't predictable but I would have liked the giraffes to be more noticeable somehow. The very top of the tree is cropped; I would have like to see a little space above the tree. Really nice exposure, nice lighting. Nov 11th
10 Nov 18 Comment Very interesting shot ! I'm curious as to the person on the wall -- is that a speaker at the conference? Why is he there?
Why are people dancing?
I guess the picture just has me asking questions, but aside from that I think it's well exposed, and I like the silhouetted dancers and the reflections in the water. I just find the man's face distracting. I don't know if I want to look at the man or the dancers. I would have liked you to crop way down to the dancers and do something to change the background behind them.
