Solid whiteish sky doesn't look natural to me. I like the sky behind the birds especially since you are taking the picture from below, we'd expect to see the sky.
Just having had cataract surgery on my right eye, those eyes really drew my attention. Told my surgeon please don't put a flower in my left eye next week when he does my 2nd eye.
Enjoyed the different stories in them all. The first ones speaks of tension, oblique lines of graphics and colors. The second of plants growing taller than I am, the 3rd of textures, hard stones, prickly plants and further out soft blossoms of blooming trees and the last of the season to come.
I enjoy high key also. Your fox is right up my alley, so to speak.
Thank you for this image. Love the striking colors against the night sky. Decided to crop to what I considered the main subject to highlight the strength of the subjects vertical orientation, along with it's graphics and colors.
I enjoy them all........#3 my favorite here.
I like the Golden Age preset, but the original was well seen to begin with.
Very interesting to see it that way..
They definitely are beautiful. Nice captures.
I haven't tried it in-camera, I use Photoshop and layers. I do like your first one. Can almost smell the wonderful scent from the blossoms.
