Leo - The Lion
by GrandmaEMT

Comment:
The lion is too centered and way too bright when considering the surroundings. A tighter crop showing only the lion's bust might have better suited, drawing attentio to the statue and reducing he wandering efect caused by the surrounding area. This is a good example where a black and white treatment could have worked wonders. Sharpness is bang on. Keep up the good work.

Nice idea. You may have been going fro the grainy/slightly blurred look, but I think it's over the top. A slightly more focussed or sharper image would have been better. The treatment given to the image does not do justice to the presumably beautiful long hair. A second weaker light coming in from the left would have given more body to the hair as well. I like the crop and the concept is sound.

Another shot that should have scores much better if the damn cat-hating, dog-hating trolls could take a chill pill. Excellent shot. Keep up the good work.

Way under-rated. You should have been top-20. The cat and dog haters were out on this one. Keep up the good work.

That is the COOLEST perspective bro. The only thing I can wrong with this shot is that the floor to the right-front of the image is a bit blown out. Awesome crisp focus of the cat's face with everything else just out of focus. A winner in my book.
