Thanks everyone for your comments.
Leslie, thanks, I'll have a look at that crop. Hope you're doing well.

Great eye for this! The forms of the bridge are great, especially as you framed it, and together with the contrast of the sky and the perpendicular patterns of light, it's wonderful!

You always seem to keep this very fresh! Wonderful work again. One minor crit: I think the hand on the left is a bit too close to the margin.

Beautiful flower, and one of the few "outside the frame" shots that really really works. Nice!

I like how this worked out! Is it all natural, or is the right side done in PS (it doesn't matter to me I am just curious)?
This is quite original.
See my hawk photo for a response to your question. (Wish this site had a real "reply" function!)

Yannic,
I am not sure what you mean--his wing looks just like the original, except reduced for this photo, and USM applied. The white lines, the white blotch, the feather pattern, are all there just like that. I'm not sure what they are exactly, I'm not a bird expert. Maybe someone can answer.

Wonderful image; good combination of surreal and previously real. Not sure what the figure is on the left -- mythological I assume.

After I wrote my comment I noticed your alternative version. It's fantastic. Much better in my opinion.

Great tones and concept again. However, this one's a little flat to me; I think it's mostly the drawing like qualities of the front sillouette and the texture mapped on the mountains. A very creative piece of work, as all your work is!

Nice scene and good color contrast! Excellent sharpness throughout. One suggestion: the bee is very centered here; you might consider a different crop to use the rule of thirds to focus interest.

Exceptional catch! Great composition, great scene, great colors. Nice portfolio too!
PS. Thx for your comments on my "The Flying Turtle." For the record, those lines were not PS'd in, they are the suns rays shining in the tank. All that was done to the photo was levels and then a very slight applcation of neatimage throughout for noise reduction. (Oh, and of course it was reduced to 640 and USM applied.) Sorry to put this here on your photo, but the site doesn't really have a response function!

Fantastic closeup! I like the composition here too, and I find the natural light works well here. A minor nit is that the antenna is a bit cropped off and slightly hot. Regards--Neil

Wow, that's FANTASTIC. Very ingeniously done. This is one of my favorite images--of all time! As to your question, at first I saw agony, but the more I look, the expression on the face looks like a yawn. The water yawning on a tired, summer day.

Wonderful lighting, subject and composition! I also like the toning! I have a Canon G2 as well; I'm curious if the sepia was as shot in the camera or done afterwards?
