[quote=Sunfish 33] Welcome to the HOG Sunfish 33. I hope you can catch a few rockets taking off from your back yard. I miss the great shuttle launches. David in Florida. PS Nice photo art.

Sunfish you crop looks good. you got rid of the rock in the far left background and positioned the lonely tree at the 1/3 compositing sweet spot. One other trick to try on the cropped one. We in the west read from left to right... in the photo far left is the subject then... empty sky. Try a horizontal flip and then you start in the rocky beach area and then end up high in the tree which is the major focus of the photo.

It is obvious that you have a good camera AND a good eye for photography. By the end of a year you'll be a prize winner.

Ouch, yes now I ended up in the tree, you did not tell me it had thorns... !!! :lol:
Great work Sunfish. :hunf:

Yes, it could have been cropped tight portait on the tree, but then what is the feeling, why is he showing me a tree...... as you have cropped, the rocky beach now at the left sets a mood for the isolation of the tree; a tree all alone there with wet lands and birds in the distance..

Almost forgot how good the angled grass is in the fore ground, not too much, you are right on with that. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thanks......have you seen the "Florida Bald Eagles" yet?
I cropped them keeping your advice in mind. I think they are much better now. I didn't post the before image for comparison, but let me know what you think if you have the time.

No, have not seen the Bald Eagles yet... where?

Just noticed that the branches on the ground point to the tree, serendipity indeed. :thumbup:
