macdaniel's Gallery Comments
 | a critique comment: like the image not only for the robin, which always seems to attract attention, but also for the upper background. The image is sharp and very well exposed. But for me the image consists, at least that is how I perceive it, of four parts competing for the eye's attention: the lovely upper background, the lower, bit duller background, the stake, and the main subject, the robin. Maybe by a simple more panoramic cropping one could reduce the role of the duller lower background and the stake. By: Oldroadster |

 | Thanks Lynne, you made me dig for the crop By: macdaniel |
and to make something of it 
. | Many thanksl for your comments and for your votes; as with **** I am also curious to see what modification work Lynne had done with it. I realize the small portion the human element has in the mainly landscape matter. Didn't even attempt to search for a crop that would emphasize the searching people party though realizing they are a very important part of the image or maybe the most important; I mean to say: leave them out and the image becomes far less interesting. In order to make their presence felt I uploaded the image as large as could be by making the image panoramic. By: macdaniel |

 | what a lovely image taken with an old Takumar, very good lighting in it and a great sky signature; thanks David By: Big_Beavis |
 | the closer you image them the more hightech they become; well done! By: sarasij |
 | very interesting image; why not rework towards B&W and bring out those boys a little more and that sky and detail under control By: sarasij |
 | Can you make a great shot of despair? It drips from the image like the streaks - are they blood or tears - on the door she sits against and the street is wet. There is only one niggle to despair you: would have liked to see her a little bit out of the center by cropping a little from the pavement. By: Angi_Wallace |
 | like it and the idea of contrast which is well dramatized; maybe, maybe: too much processing, girl too much centralized? By: NeilWigan |
 | I never knew that birds did also exercise gymnastics; indeed so amusing to see, thanks for sharing this one. By: Dreameruk |
 | indeed rough and saddening the eyes; but you present here an excellently manipulated image with serious subject matter too and that should deserve more attention. By: barberpics |
 | wonderfully clever indeed, first the asymmetrical geometry, the texts that make no sense, then the eye dwells to the treat of the image and the leash is the finisching touch that makes you wonder who ..... By: david deveson |
 | A fine snap from life enhanced by the casual composition; thanks for your comment on "view on paris"; it was taken without a tripod, in a causal way By: rayme330 |
 | two defining principles that show civilization is in progress, though it is a tough and hard way. By: wideangler |
 | men do only think of sex, I am a man By: wideangler |
 | a vote for your work but not for the creator who must have got his inspiration from a nightmare; funny how the other colours resemble. By: Archangel72 |
 | david, i really like your way of presenting your flower images in a sort of simplified way; if possible take care to take them not too frontal but in such a way as (in this one) to preserve some depth in the image. Well done! By: Big_Beavis |
 | hAi alan, nice image, like the selective colouring; should uncolour the blue/green stuff in the bottom; I quickly read the comment and no one mentioned the image seems to be not straight which is not always a must, but in this one it is. regards By: scoobsmx6 |
 | like this image and as said especially for the watercolour suggestion; seen in that light, it is sharp enough; and indeed monopods and tripods are cumbersome tools in macrophotographing those little beasties that tend to fly away on approaching; as said, the dragonfly can be easy as it sometimes stays in place until you try to kiss it. I have also noticed with the damselflies that they sometimes tend to persistently return to the spot they just sat on. In such a situation a tripod can be ideal to take a pinsharp image of them > so, this one well done, like it and could be a sort of raw material for a print. By: HarrietH |
 | This one should have had more attention; it is a strange, a bit surreal image as if a piece of coast in suspended in the air, the dots one the white ice being pinguins on a beach which is a broken glacier covered with vegetation. Puzzling one. By: GraemeBrooks |
 | an image that needs time to look longer at; interesting as it is and even contains more of them popping up with cropping and rotating. By: GraemeBrooks |
 | Mike, rather like this different image made up of photographs I suspect; whoever can vow on its own sanity and so I have added some of mine.....lol. See the modification with the nights you talked about in the description although I like the image already as it is; thanks for sharing it - alfred By: MikeRC |
 | quiet a lady; she reminds me of a know-it-all primary schoolteacher. Well done! By: annaliese |
 | like how the long shadows and the rather orderly array of the trees (enhanced by your pov) do cooperate to give a sort of abstract from nature. Maybe it could have been a bit sharper? By: randomrubble |
