A Gently Warming Sun

Thanx :)

I would like to see this without the sky, which "cools off" the warmth, but it is cool! Half-asleep early one morning when I lived in a desert...heading towards the kitchen sink...I once discovered a lizard on that stainless steel ... staring up at me. After the initial shock and staring contest...we didn't know what to do, so we named him, "Shmuel," and for a few days, we had a pet. : ) Then he ran away from home... This brings some warm memories. Take care.

Amazing image, very nice shadow (7/7 an)

I was viewing your portfolio and this one is my personal favorite.  A very original and beautiful photo indeed. The silhouette of the reptile is very clean and very well positioned. I also like the thick cetral vein of the leaf which makes a diagonal enterance to the photo from the left bottom corner of the frame. It really adds to this photo. I must say, I disagree with Donna Stavis when she says that this photo would be better if sky was not included. Like this one: http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=8482032 Such a framing excludes the diagonal vein  which is a major minus in my opinion. The sky must remain also I believe albeit it has blown-out clouds and blue saturation unbalance. Saturation is easy to fix as I do in the attached version but clouds need work.  Nevertheless a really beautiful photo. Congratulations.
