Turn That Frown Upside Down

Hmmm... this is very clever! I'm confused about the 'extra' mouth on the shirt. And I don't like the partial bit of face and glasses... the hand and piece were enough, I think.

I also wish the eyes were more in focus, but I do understand that problem.

Those are just my opinions... and every voter will have one (or two). *grin*

Anyway, I hope this does well for you... despite the issues I have with it, it's still a 6 in my book. :)

So, why wasn't I in Pet Portrait? Hmm?

Too much noise in the image, I fear, to score highly. Cropped too much?? But kitty is adorable.

What are YOU lookin at???

HOW many images will be named this exact same title? Not puzzling at all... almost ALL of the ones where the animal is looking at the camera.

Oh. Sorry. I was ranting. *sigh*

Now on to the stuff that matters: I'd really like to have a closer crop on the bird... and I need to see his eye(s). With an Advanced Editing challenge some dodging/burning or shadow/highlights could be used.

Also, I'd have cropped the image a bit more... so the bird is not looking "out of the image" but into it. IE: more off the left and a bit off the top to get him in the left third of the image.

But, that's just my opinion. And every voter has one. *grin* I hope you do well.

Looks like somebody has the same dust on their sensor that I have... *sigh* The good news is that removing it is legal in even Basic Editing... and Advanced Editing. 'Nough said about that.

I'd like a bit more detail in the ant. Perhaps some dodging/burning or Shadow/highlights for this??

Also, a less centered subject would score more highly, I think. I'd have cropped off a bit on the left and a smidgeon on the top.

But, I'm just an amateur... so do as you wish. :)

Are you looking at me?

I really hate this title... I'm sorry that it's come to that... LOL! But, it has. Every animal looking at the camera has this title.

Sorry. Ranting is over for now. *grin*

Now, on to the stuff that matters... I like the idea of this... but I need to see more detail. With Advanced Editing you could have dodged the shadows and highlights to bring out the eyes a bit. Or maybe it's too much of a crop for that? Is there any detail left in the shadows?

Anyway... I like the diagonal of the branch as a leading line... I just wish there were more detail, especially in the eyes and the feathers.

Oh yeah... and find a different title. *grin*

Fantastic action shot... I really dislike the green sky. That bit of sand is wonderful.
