Challenge:Zodiac (Basic Editing I) Camera:Sony DSC-F717 Location: King William District Date: Jan 24, 2004 Aperture: 2.4 ISO: 100 Shutter: 1/13 Galleries:Landscape, Animals Date Uploaded: Jan 27, 2004
Good color and exposure, composition is good. It would have been nice (if possible) to have made the background blurred via. shallow DOF - the detailed background takes away from the lions (the subject). Nice photo though.
Nice picture. (my opinion) The overall mood of the shot doesn't fit the title to me for some reason - I guess I envision a greeting with a warmer setting. I think it is the overcast light or something. But I still like it. 7
I see the link to the challenge strongly but the image itself lacks interest for me - there is nothing to draw me in aside from the fact that there are lions and the challenge includes leo/ lion.
More depth of field would really help the lions stand out from the background. Currently blends in too much with the background. Gaussian blur would help to bring the lions out also.
Lighting on the lions are causing a little too much glare. Did you try different angles? I'd have probably tried to take the picture with only one lion in it, but that's just me.
