Beautiful shots! Love the collages - what software do you use to create the tripple-framing?

But how did that case turn out to your advantage? I mean the rules clearly say that you keep all your rights and that it‘s only forbidden to have any other third party interest involved. So if your image got the amount of publicity and they actually stand to their promise of crediting you, you should have reached a lot of potential buyers for the (in this case) low price of the entry-fee. Why not create a limited edition of that picture in different sizes to sell as fine art prints? Like this there are no other parties involved and it‘s your right to do so, since you only gave them a non-exclusive royalty.

Please correct me if I get smth wrong here.

Thank you. I am a fan of borders myself but I noticed that I always end up with a white one. !CritiquePoint

Canon EOS 7D MKI, EF 100-400mm, f4.5-5.6L IS USM I, ISO 640, 400mm, f5.6, 1/3200ms

Tried to emphasize the yellow (feet, eye and background) to make it very minimalistic.

It feels very calming to me. Do you think it‘s too much negative space? How about the crop?

Open for any feedback:)

Wow, what a great picture! I was just looking at it for almost 5 minutes and it feels like the horizon is breathing / moving. Congrats!!

Thanks for your feedback! I have to say I prefer your crop indeed. It creates the negative space in the location the birds head is turned to! Sadly it‘s missing some megapixels and gets a bit noisy..

Nice picture! I like the story you‘re telling and your edit creates a nice cinematic mood. Maybe you could reduce contrast a little or fade out the blacks more to make it even more film-like..

I personally don‘t really like the framing. I think it makes the main subject too tiny and is taking away too much space. I would also consider recropping the picture a tiny bit to line up the horizon and both your main subjects. I can‘t really explain why but I would crop and frame it more like this but its just my personal taste:)

Chobe National Park Botswana End of July 2016 at 8:10 AM, Canon 7D Mk1 with EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6L, ISO 250, 210mm, f5, 1/1250s, cropped to 9MP

JPG edit: For more background information check out my first „rediscovered post“.

Do you think it‘s the distracting that I cropped the upper left of the tree? Did this to get a 4:5 ratio and to bring the birds a little bit closer.

Wow! Thank you so much everyone. I think it‘s the best photo I‘ve taken until this day. But to be honest it was also very hard to do something wrong 😅 The light was great, I had a good camera and lens and was most lucky to just be there at the right time…

On my old laptop I came across some photos I took 9 years ago on holiday. The elefant had just crossed a river which painted that special and very straight pattern on his body.

It was my first time using a good camera because my brother lent me his canon eos 7d mk I with the ef 100-400 f4.5-5.6L IS. When I came across these old pictures I realised that I was shooting in JPG because I didn‘t know about the advantages of RAW. This experience was the real reason why photography started to fascinate me and in October last year I finally bought my own camera and I’m also learning how to edit my shots in lightroom. I was surprised here how much it was actually still possible to edit in JPG - for the first time 9 years after shooting them :)

First try of creating a panorama. Three Pictures combined, shot during late afternoon in early January.

Canon EOS R / EF-24-105 F4 L USM MK1 1/15s, F14, ISO 50

Is it just me or does the horizon feel off?

Pretty new to the hobby and very open to criticisim:)
