Great comp, view, leads, and angle. Colors seem off -- sky and green look good, but red seems overdone. Because other colors look right I may be way off base.
-
Perfectly shot within the limitations of the kind of pic you are striving for. A much more challenging shot is an action shot with similar detail. -
It is hard to make a portrait distinctive, since we have all grown up on them. THis is a very beautiful subject and the pic as is as good as it can be given the limitations of the style.

Sorry for the delayed response. If the duck is th focal point he needs ot be clear crisp and detailed -- obviously a duck. The colors of the"frame" are stunning but they overwhelm the subject. Start by getting a good pic of the duck. You can probably correct the "frame" to have the best of both worlds>

Hmm . . . Hard to find a reasonable middle gropund from these widely divergent comments. My two cents -- I've seen a lot worse and many better. I have taken literally thousands of shots over 25 years -- this is a keeper, or it would not have been posted on photo.net. When I look at the ratings I see the same people over and over giving my work very low ratings -- that's why I don't post here any more. -
A high power zoom would do the trick. Compositionally, this is a nice framing device. But the duck is too small relative to the overall composition -- even if you really crank up the brightness of the duck it still is lost in the picture. I would want to try different compositions.

ANOTHER SHOT OF THE NIGHTLY WATER SHOW AT BELLAGIO'S; COLOR
CORRECTION, CROPPING ONLY

First attempt at capturing animal in rapid motion. Thoughts?
-
It simply doesn't get better than this -- I agree this could well be a classic in many respects. Look at the other "sraircase" photos on photo,net -- this is in a different league. ANd just when you thought you had seen evey possible way to shoot stairs. -
A photo is itself a manipulation of "reality" -- nothing like this actually exists in two dimensions. This is an enhancing use of PS and should draw no more or less reaction than from any photo. All in all a nice job.
-
This looks like it came from the same period as the Flatiron Building. Composition is outstanding -- less grain would make this a truly amazing photo. -
Quite beautiful
-
Its the lines that distract -- the vase seems to be at an unusual angle to the "frame" of the arch and the lines of the arch are not parallel to the sides of the photo, nor are they perpendicular to one another. I am usually not this fussy but something seems out of kilter in the picture.

Hard to tell as near as I can figure out it is the high winds when the ice forms. This is on the shore on the windward side of Lake Champlain and it is not unusual for there to be 40 to 50 MPH winds in late fall and early winter we live up the hill about a mile or two away and when the wind begins our house sounds like a ship in high wind.. Add freezing temps and anything can happen. It also could be that because of the wind, the ice does not form uniformly and, when it melts it leaves holes behind.

After a very cold Vermont winter, the ice pack is still very and is
only yielding slowly to the spring. This small bush and the leaf
beside it seemed to be emerging from an ice cave.
What do you think?

I would have thought it was not possible to capture some new previously unphotgraphed view of the Eiffel Tower. But, voila! Very vice shot
-
I cannot agree with the comments about whether this is or is not a pohtograph. I see it a lot, as when someone takes a photo of a photo. If we stick with such narrow definitions we could not accept any digital manipulation or to go further any darkroom manipulation. Bye bye Man Ray and others. -
A bright of color at the end of a long cold Vermont winter

I agree with your treatment -- the mountains and the background add a depth which helps to define the scale. A great shot. -
Inversion via PS 7 of 2154628. Night shot of fountain at the Bellagio
in Las Vegas. Comments.
-
Shot at night, hand held. Shot at 3200 ISO F8, 1/250. May explain some of the lack of clarity -- DOF v. grain trade off.
-
To answer both questions, it is not a crop. I also don't know what "soft" means -- part of the lack of acuity is due to the constraints of photo.net as I have noticed a loss of clarity when the photo is displayed.
As the the direct look, I looked back at several shots taken that day. It was taken in day light, no flash and with a telephoto a fair distance from the statute. I do have others from directy below which do not capture the direct look.
