Kitten Clarence in His Leopard-Skin Bed

Comment:
PAW - Clarence is really cute. He probably imagines himself as a leopard in that bed. I like the framing of the box and how the front if the face is highlighted. it looks like something to the left of the camera had Clarence's attention.

After The Fog Rolls In
by JeffryZ

Comment:
Congratulations on the ribbon! Great shot. You managed to get the fog that I was unable to get when I went to the same location (I think, or is it Crystal Pier, OB Pier or IB Pier?) when it was foggy inland but not so foggy in La Jolla. I love the sharp surfer shapes against the hazy ocean and Scripps Pier.

A Sri Lankan Goldsmith

PAW - He looks very pleased to be working a job he's overqualified for. I like the comparison with the equally out of place native American (apparently) in the picture. I might suggest cropping out some of the right side and bottom to see the subject better.

PAW - This reminds me a lot of my growing up on a farm and being expected to drive tractor and truck years before being old enough to get a license, without the hat up North though. I can identify with the nonchalance; by the hundredth time doing up and down the same thousand acres of fields over and over year after year it got very boring. Nicely composed and good lighting, apparently early morning or evening of a long day.

PAW - I like the close-up macro with the petals filling most of the frame as a beautiful background. You did well on a hand-held shot.

Snoqualmie Falls

PAW - Very nice iPhone shot. Good perspective. I saw the falls along the Oregon side of the Columbia when I went up there but never got to this one. Did you have to do much post-processing to make it look this good?

PAW - Excellent shot. Great lighting, composition and preparation. An outtake from the "Stock Photos: Cooking" challenge perhaps?

Week 2 - The Argument
by Ann

Comment:
PAW - Great shot. I love the seagull taking it all in. I'm going to have to find that rock. Is it near Bird Rock? I didn't recognize it as yours, not being a hummingbird ;-). I think reducing the brightness slightly would improve it.

PAW - Excellent memorial picture of a road that comes to a visual end but then continues in the unseen light. My condolences to Jon's family and friends. Very nice videos in the comments.

PAW - I like the very shallow DOF but still very detailed on the 2nd tine. A little blown out in the bottom parts of the tines but otherwise good lighting.
