    Compositionally this is a great image. Unfortunately, something happened when you resized it for posting here. I suspect JPEG compression. Unfortunately, it has rendered some artifacting in the foreground. Supe work, however! Thanks for sharing with us.
  1. It's so hard to believe that you stitched this together from three shots! Nicely done. What a great spot. What lake is that off in the distance? Great action shot!

    Very CUTE but please, resize your picture for normal screens. I use 72 ppi, and about 11 inches in width, and that seems to fit most without side to side scrolling.
  2. Despite a dying monitor your shot STILL looks great! Nice composition, balanced. Ordering that cloud into the scene helped, too. The only thing you could have done to make it even more perfect would have been to add a person off to one side or the other, looking into the view which would add a bit of human interest and scale to things.
  3. You would be amazed at the images you can get it you simply carried a small tripod along with you into the woods. That's what this image needed,--a stable platform so that you could stop down the lens so as to get more in focus. Right now as it is, there is no central focus (it's higher up nearer the framing green leaves than on the primary subject, which I'm assuming to be the bright yellow leaf. From a composition standpoint you should generally avoid putting the primary subject flat in the middle of your shot. Try for a more asthetically pleasing composition where the leaf is near one of the intersections of the 'rule of thirds.' That may be a good start for you.
  4. I'm guessing that the original Polaroid image was unacceptable so you decided to use PS to manipulate it a bit. That failed. It's a very ordinary shot made worse through manipulation. Some images lend themselves to such extreme manipulation. This one doesn't.
