5 - Nosy Gorilla

Comment:
lol -- too funny. I like the soft focus on this one ... the gorilla blends into the background, and it almost looks like a painting. Quality is in the eye of the beholder. ;>P

Interesting image here ... deep rich black tones, and nice detail bringing out the shadow of the umbrella on the floor.

Nice tonal range, makes the cactus pop but still shows the dramatic background sky. Well done.

Great expression, and nice soft lighting on the child's head. Works very well in B+W.

nice composition and tones. Looks a tad soft in the upper third ... maybe you were shooting at a 45 degree angle to the ground?

Nice image and processing ... looks like a scene out of a sci fi movie. Congrats on a new personal best, and welcome to the K100D page!

Wow, Jeff, I really like this image. Great colors and composition. I don't see any excess noise here at all; what some call grain/noise I see as texture of the grasslands that enhances the feel of the image. My only nit is that I might have eliminated the red dirt triangle on the left by shooting from a slightly different location and/or cropping, but that's just an artistic choice that isn't mine to make.

Nice exposure of the nighttime sky and use of a flashlight to illuminate the far shore. I would have cropped off the bottom fourth of the picture, from about where that rock juts out to the lefthand shore, as there's not a lot of foreground interest there, and I think that detracts somewhat from the composition.
