Shot this one handheld by the river and am not able to make a positive

ID on the species

great scene but could have used some more careful exposure. too bad you cannot use a graduated ND on an S30.

Really interesting image. i Like the effect and the colors. the black smudges in the top left area are the only bit i dont like. This looks more like a painting than a photograph.

does the fact that the beak is not fully visible spoil the image?

lovely exposure but too much empty space on the top

great placement. not so sure if the fact that his legs are cut off is a good thing

very nice image. could be improved by either having a person at the far end or some subject that is illuminated by the ray of light coming from the top.

Just looking for general impressions of this image.

Shot this in of all places Boston Common. This bird seems to be a

regular visitor and dines on pigeons and squirrels that infest the

park.

Thanks in advance for comments and critiques!

I should remember to refrain from making exposure comments based on the crappy output of my monitor at work. sorry! great image

great composition and background control. the bird could have done with a little more exposure

comments and critiques please

shot this one while testing my new 1.4x tc. The background looks a

lot better on the slide. Sadly i only have a cheap scanner. Comments

are welcome

please let me know what u think

Thanks Ria, for this and other comments on my images. it is nice to see that someone took the time to check out my images and leave some constructive feedback. People like that are rare on PN. thanks again

I shot this one out a rather scratched up window of an airplane on my

way to LA. I believe it is the grand canyon... am I wrong?

Comments and suggestions especially on whether or not the buildings

should becropped out are appreciated

the out of focus bit on the right doesnt help either. I feel the light on the flowers is too strong and has washed out the delicate pink. Did u use a polarizer with this shot?

and the giraffes...

Cloning is often the simplest way to do such alterations. if you are uncomfortable with clone stamping you could try burning the hotspots or selective curves to tone down the highlights. I took the liberty of playing around with a couple of your images as an illustration of using PS to add snap to an image. I am my no means an expert with photoshop but the more i find that the more you experiment the more you learn.

Looks like a Kinkade. Lovely composition around the light.

Nice capture of a beautiful animal. those highlights however are really distracting. Some PS work may be in order to improve this image.

great capture. The light is a bit harsh. Have you tried getting the colors to pop a bit in photoshop?

beautiful colours, nicely done. cant say i can find anything i would change.
