The weather was too cold for the gorillas to be out in the

Congo "habitat" so they were stuck in their dens - where we got to

be very close.

She liked hanging out right next to the glass.

This is a very emotional image to me.

Comments please.

Thank you

Nice clouds.

You might want to try a panoramic type of crop, as the clear blue area seems a bit excessive.

Secondly, I think the horizon might be a little off. You may want to straighten that some.

Thanks for the thoughtful critique.

I appreciate it.

I think I showed him the photo, and he liked it. We bought two of these plates, which I'm sure he also appreciated.

Are the eyes noticeable enough, at this size? At full size on my

monitor, the eyes really are piercing.

I was at the Met museum with my girlfriend, and really liked the

lines.

I desaturated it a bit. It was warmer, but I wanted an almost black

and white look.

Thanks for the comments.

I was actually on the Monorail that tours the park ground. It's slightly raised, but the bluffs the eagle was on, weren't too high.

I'm pretty sure it's got a rabbit.

This is a really, close in crop, so I lost a lot of sharpness. Any

comments otherwise?

It was a fountain. Water was pouring out of the top, spilling over the side, and falling along to a raised pool. Very eye catching.

Thanks for the comment.

Visited Minneapolis for a conference. It was nice seeing a place

that has clouds in the sky (I'm from Los Angeles).

Comments please?

I wish the eye was open, but since they have pretty small eyes, I'm

not sure if it would have made much of a difference.

This is my fledgling attempt at "Environmental Portaiture"

Please give me any comments, suggestions, and critiques. I could

really use them.

PS: We bought 2 of these plates.

Amazing shot. Beautiful.

I would just like point something out. I'm pretty sure the ref isn't holding the boxer back. He's counting "3" out of 10 for the knock out count.

Amazing shot, great in Sepia. Love the psychological lines all pointing at the downed fighter, and his slight turn away from his opponent.

How does the blue triangle work?

Any comments appreciated.

Should I have upped the exposure? I feel it may be a little too

dark.

I thought the animal print in the background really helped. How are

the "keylights" on the eyes? Is the blue too distracting?
