Maiden with a Young Coconut

Fun image. I like all the ripples shadows in the water. The figure's shadow is a bit odd with the waves making her thigh a bit large and her arm a bit skinny.

All in the same spot. In the past I tried once or twice to move sideways along a coast or up and down on a tall building. Lightroom stitching seemed to then get confused and it made a poor result. Maybe other programs support this type of projection, but I never looked into it.

Only 21 images - those are rookie numbers :)

Great job. The exaggerated perspective is eye catching. I always manually fly the drone to create the images and post process myself. I used the auto modes at the beginning but then wanted more control. Plus my DJI made a bunch of oddly named files in subfolders on the SD card!

Thanks all.

As to the 44 photos, it is 3 rows x ~15 images in portrait orientation. I really dislike the wide angle distortion/lean off center from the drone so I am in the habit of overlapping the photos a lot to give the stitching algorithm more data from the center of the frame to work with. Takes a long time to merge!

Nice interplay of the lights and shadows on the two subjects. Not a fan of the facial expressions here. Street photography is tough and getting facial expressions, leg stride, and background to all come together is often hit or miss.

Nice bit of seeing here. Love the dark shadows on the dark squares. I am assuming this is something you set up and could rotate the board. I think centering the pieces in each square would really increase the symmetry and increase the impact.

Very nice image. The symmetry is great and really turns an ordinary image into some unique. Not sure the "lightening" hot spots adds to the image. Perhaps clone it out and see if you like it better.

Light, Interrupted

Good doggie. Very nice capture with the shadows both on the dog and the dog casting a shadow. I always wish there was a smaller collar/harness on these images but you have to shoot what is front of you.

What a nice simple composition with lots on interplay of textures and lightings. The bird adds a lot. Maybe step a little left and get a bit more angle accross the image and see how that looks.

One of my top picks. I love how you caught the light. It is almost forming a water fall in the middle of the garden. Maybe crop down a bit to remove the tree branch and see you you like that composition better.
