    I love the expression on the woman's face. The fences create a sense of tension, that I believe is relieved by her smile.

     

    Unfortunately, the image is pixelated when viewing the larger size. You might want to reduce the size of the image.

  1. Gorgeous - subtle glamour that you don't see too often these days. I like the expression on her face. I am not sure if it is a product of scanning, however, the nose and cheek on the right side are blown out. Maybe some burning would bring the highlights down? It is a beautiful picture!
  2. Wow! This is really nice. This is one of those photos that deserves more attention on this site than it has received. I like the composition, the vertical lines of the chair backs being repeated in the lines on the floor. I like what you've done with color here, also.

    Thanks Liz! I did adjust the colors a bit, including the water and the tiger. This tiger resides at the Philadelphia Zoo. He was particularly active that day! I will play around with zooming and cropping to the subject. Thanks again.

    Could you please take a look at this photo and provide your insight

    into the colors? I am just learning how to "see" colors and adjust

    them in Photoshop. My photography instructor always sees something

    different than I do and so I do not trust my own judgement. I hope

    to submit this picture as part of an assignment, so you constructive

    criticism is welcome and needed!

  3. What attracts me to this image is the diamond shape created by the trees reflected in the water. They are far enough to the right to avoid the old "thirds" issue, but still they strike me as the subject. Of course, the fact that we are guessing which element is the subject doesn't bode well for the image, does it? This aside, I like the stillness of the water and wish that I was there right now!
  4. I'm glad you mentioned that the photo had not been altered in PS. I was in Alaska this summer and was taken aback by the surreal colors - especially the mineral-rich waters and out-of-this-world foliage. Many people don't realize that much of Alaska's forests are moderate rain forests, which accounts for incredible growth and that the summer foliage is bigger, juicier and lavish in colors that are more surreal than what we often see in the lower 48. Ok, well, like in Jersey and Delaware :-)
  5. Thank you for posting your photos. I have a very long way to go in terms of becoming the photographer I want to be. I was becoming discouraged, because I love nature photography so much, but I thought that it's all been done and that there isn't anything else to be offered. Then I saw your name in Top Photographers. I am studying your portfolio and I find that your images have a quality different than much of what I've been seeing. I love your work and I thank you for posting, because I am encouraged and inspired.
  6. Nice image. I like the composition of four striations (sky, trees, grass, water). It would be great if the trees weren't so dark, but all in all I would be proud to have such a nice image in my collection!
  7. I like it! I mean, I've seen the concept before, but I like the fact that it was done with a point-and-shoot and that the outcome was a nice silhouette. My memory isn't what it used to be, so I can't remember the photographer's name, but there is this woman who uses a point-and-shoot exclusively to create these awesome images that are reminiscent of 50's movies. So bravo for you getting something this nice!

    On a photoshop note, I would remove the dark area of the upper right-hand corner just to remove the distraction.

    Ok, so that's what I think. Thanks for sharing the photo!

    There is a tree just like this visible from the Northeast Extension of the PA turnpike. I have always wanted to photograph it, but alas, haven't been willing to take my life in my hands by pulling over. I'm glad to see that you have captured this magnificent tree.
  8. What I like about this:

    1)The shallow depth of field works well; 2)the execution of this shot for which you had 1 hundreth of a second before it changed!; 3)setting the focus on the bird with the attitude; 4) The bird with one leg on the ground adds visual interest; 5)For me, the matting works with this shot. It gives it a voyeuristic overtone, which has clearly offended Mr. Bird on the left!

     

    Nice work!

  9. I did an internship at Byberry and it left an indelible impression on me. I worked on the male schizophrenics unit. I will never forget the sound of the big heavy door closing behind me and the finality of a succinct little click that told me it had been locked. Anyway, it is with some experience of that place that compells me to tell you that your photograph has captured its ill spirit. Even though yours was taken after it was abandoned, I can tell you that everything about it carried a huge sense of abandonment. Even when it was occupied. Thanks for posting this. It made me think of things and people I haven't thought of in years.
