Well, Kari..I know this is a little late...but I wanted to give you a comment at least...since I know it's yours I'll pull off the gloves (per say)
I gave this a 7, great colors (nothing was pushed to much, has great balance), excellent detail in the ducks themselves...I think that just a "touch" more sharpening could have helped this a bit more (it seems a "little soft in the focus" a higher aperture (f/13/14) would have given you alot more feather detail), the tail of the one duck is cut off...that might have hurt you a bit (but that's minor). And finally, I don't know why but duck/swan pictures don't do so well in FS's...if this had been a "wild life bird challenge" I think this would have placed very well....the tweaks I'm talking about are more "make it perfect" stuff....you get it... |
