13 Dec 20 Comment The large patch of blue sky provides a nice counter balance to the boat. Makes me wish I was there. Dec 24th
13 Dec 20 Comment Great use of negative space to emphasize your subject and it does beg the question as to why there aren't more windows. The texture in the wall is an added plus. Dec 24th
13 Dec 20 Comment Great use of negative space to emphasize your subject. The reflection leads to an interesting composition. Dec 24th
13 Dec 20 Comment I love all the in the water/out of the water/reflections that interplay together to make you take a closer look. I have never seen a dragonfly with that color before. Dec 24th
13 Dec 20 Comment Love the detail of the egg shell and the effective use of negative space to highlight your subject. Dec 24th
13 Dec 20 Comment Love the beads of water on his/her head. The negative space really makes you focus on the subject. Good job.

13 Dec 20 Comment Thank you for your critical remarks. Indeed there were many things that might have made the image sharper: me not being on a rocking boat, me not knowing that an eagle was going to suddenly fly over me, a faster shutter speed, etc. Perhaps it is my shortcoming as a photographer, but when it comes to wildlife, sometimes I have to take what I can get as there are no do-overs or second guessing. As far as the vignetting being a distraction, I was only trying to follow this month's lesson. Since I am locked down at my house, I am somewhat limited in images that have sufficient negative space, so I went with what I had. I apologize if the vignetting is a distraction, I was only playing around with the negative space as a way to frame the eagle. I guess it was unsuccessful. Dec 7th
