    Re: Seal

    Hi Bernard,Mr./Mrs. seal is nice but I think he or she is lost in a lot of brightness and is also lost among the branches and shadows.I'm not experienced but some cropping from left might help to make the seal stand out more and it makes the composition simpler.Another crop suggestion would be from the right side to have a square frame with a simpler composition.I don't know what can be done with PP for the brightness because I don't have the experience.Let's see what others will say about Mr./Mrs. seal

    Hi Bernard
    I like the composition just the way it is because it shows that one must be observant and quick to catch. Also the volume of water makes an image full of energy - even the branches caught in the stream above add to the atmosphere. Perhaps a little could be done to emphasise the animal but not sure what.
    Good capture.

    Ooo,if the second one is so tiny ,you certainly have to crop your image Bernard because it can't be seen in the original photo at all..or you can sacrifice the second one.
