Great subject matter. Was this planned?

If anyone would like to comment, I'd be ever so grateful.

Anyone see any artistic merit in this photo?

Beautifully simple.

I realise that this shot must be intentionally muddy and dark, but I would try for just a little lighter.

Wow, I didn't even notice that! Thanks.

I will definitely experiment with that. Always feel free to play around with my images... I'm honored that you took the time.

Fuzzy white object in lower foreground?

Umm... are those power lines? Whatever they are, I would seriously consider removing them.

This shot seems a little boxed in, but nice capture nonetheless.

In the land of Mordor, where the shadows lie... incredible shot!

If I was the bird, I would not want to have my name associated with this shot... lol. Good for you for being a rebel.

Gotta love the out of doors. This a great shot... In fact, I not only like the folder, but your whole portfolio! Very fine photography...

Keep shooting!

 

Note: Going on what I've seen (your portrait). I think that you should make a self-portrait folder. -- Just my humble opinion.

Actually, I was looking after him for a friend. Definitely a cute little animal.

 

Anyhow, you're absolutely right about the lighting. I've raised the brightness by 10% in the image. Thanks for your comment!

This is a great shot! Unfortunately, the ferry has some patches on it just as bright as the gulls and distracts the eye a little. I would recommend equalizing everything but the gulls and the rail to make them the CLEAR object of the photo. Otherwise, I really love this shot.

 

(I hope you don't mind my borrowing your photo to show you what I mean -- attached)

Thank you for your valuable and insightful feedback, Jim.

Yay Canada!

Although this photo is a very nice capture, it lacks a subject, I feel lost in it.

Sorry, I'm not a big architecture fan.

interesting subject

 

beautifully conveyed mood

I'd love some feedback on this one. If anyone has anything to say!

Thanks for the comments. I've removed the entire wall/doorframe section. It looks a little strange now, as though the corners of the chair were cut off, due to the shadows that no longer have a source (see attached original). I have experimented with lightening the remaining, faint corners of the chair, but it is difficult to get the selection lined up and feathered properly to match the edge of the sun-lit part. Does anyone think this is a problem?

Is this shot any good? I'm not really an abstract kind of person.

Doesn't he look surprised! (guilty conscience--probably stole those nuts) I would have tried to capture him facing into the frame (so leaving a little more space on the right), but the lighting and colours are great.
