Brad started the topic Photographing snow and ice in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 4y, 1mo ago
I think that a layer of snow on tree branches or bushes is quite beautiful, but my pictures tend to be flat or, if I increase the contrast, stark rather than beautiful. I like how the picture below turned out, but it’s very different (just a single cluster). Do you have any advice generally or on the picture below?

Brad replied to the topic Ruins of a barn in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 4y, 4mo ago
I like the idea, but for me it’s hard to tell this was a barn. I know people advise to fill the frame, but I wonder if a little more distance/surrounding context would help to establish what this is?

A reminder that not everyone gets to come in out of the snow…

Brad replied to the topic First waterfall from my trip to Iceland in the forum The Shark Tank Feedback Forum 4y, 4mo ago
I like the waterfall itself (including the movement, as you note), and the perspective showing the river beyond. The sky, to me, has enough clouds to provide some interest. The rest of the scene, however, seems a little too dark, so there’s not much to see besides the waterfall; I’d consider increasing the exposure for the shadows and midtones.

Thank you.

Brad replied to the topic Which is better for this image; landscape or Portrait? in the forum Landscape Photography 4y, 5mo ago
I agree that portrait does a better job of displaying the waterfall. You might consider cropping off some of the bottom, maybe slightly below the bottom of the rocks on the right; that seems largely like dead space.

Thanks, both of you. I followed Kent DuFault’s suggestion of changing the blue helmet and jacket to red.

I confess to some luck here, when a kayaker joined the scene. Thus, I may not be able to retake the photo, though I suppose I could blend him in. I also have a zoomed shot, though I like the full scene more. Anyway, I’d be interested in any advice you wish to offer.

I was struck by the bird’s beauty. The image of eating baby turtles isn’t quite as beautiful.

I’m guessing fishing or boating, with fishing seeming more likely (since I don’t see a boat). It works for me, and I like the background.

I think it will help to bring out the river a little. It seems too dark, and could have the blue strengthened.

Monotone might work better if I want to make this spooky, but duotone seems better for showing aging and deterioration.

If you deleted the bar going through the man’s head, and perhaps also the vertical bar on the left, then you might create an image of two “animals,” each in their own cell.
