Art X Photography

good creativity and editing . well done 

by chance I came across your work Irina. wonderful and creative. compliments 

wonderful image, good technical skill to capture this 

Always a fan of your work Mehmet. This is no exception. well done 

As always creative and well edited. Having seen the original and the end result its no wonder your work is admired throughout phto.net. well done Gail 

this is a wonderful image full of character and feeling . I like the subject isolation from the background

I like the representation here. Sometimes an image can be more than just technical skill. It can be humour, tongue and cheek etc.. perhaps this image is a good reminder of that. well chosen as photo of the day

At 43 years old, Rigo really is a gentle giant. Part of a captive breeding

program at Melbourne zoo, he's helping secure the survival of the western

lowlands gorilla, currently rated as critically endangered.

I like that it is 'out of the ordinary'. That it makes people engage in the image, You've done well here Zsolt. Compliments on Photo of the Day

a wonderful image, well chosen for photo of the day. theres so much to see and study here, from foreground to background there's detail and purpose in what is captured. well done 

thank you my friends

One of four Tiger cubs this young male was sitting in the bushes quietly looking

at me between two trees

although not the cleanest image (probably because its such a hard image to take anyway), I like the angle closeness rays of light streaming in and the overall clarrity of the image. well chosen as photo of the day

This reminds me of a scene from an old movie. The editing effects in monochrome/sepia works very well to compliment the scene and create the mood you have here. Its an image that draws the viewer and makes them WANT to explore the photograph. well done 

this is a very nice image TM. I like the bokeh in the background and colour tones here. I do feel as though more DoF could have isolated your subject matter and therefore added "punch" to the image as a whole (as you have with many of your other images)

I liek the effort put into this shot. personally I find it difficult to achieve good results but I think you have done well overall. I like the sun light creating the shillouette. I'd only add that additional sharpness would make this a great image

nice crop factor. works well with the monochrome effect

thank you very much

thank you all very much. Appreciate your thoughts 

marvelous image

i like the editing technique here. good shot  

 Thanks everyone for your comments, I was very pleased with the way the image turned out due to the environmental conditions resulting from back burning. Dave I've inserted the original image for you to see this image is real. Cheers 

this image has not been edited to remove colour. The effect of monochrome

are a result of heavy smoke in the air due to back burning.

thanks for your thoughts

thank you very much 

Thank you all for your thoughts on this, they're much appreciated. Tommy, I agree with you, this image seems a little too symmetrical in terms of horizon placement. I did play around with the image increasing the space of the sky and cropping part of the foreground but there wasn't any interest to make me keep the extra sky and cropping the foreground seemed to take away interest from the foreground, so I decided to crop the image as you see it here. All that said, I recognise your point. I guess I was hoping that the off-center sun set would help break up the symmetry.
