Stay Focused! (Go Bears!)

Greetings and happy new year from the CC. Well I like the idea of ghosting. I think specifically tho the table or flooring underneasth is very distracting, a solid color, probably black would of made it a bit more pleasing. I think your subject is 'cute' however I think this sort of subject has limited appeal to a certain grup of people. I think you did a good job with a somewhat blazee subject. I also think that the bear needs some room to look into in the top of the photo. Perhaps taking the tag off or editing it out may have helped as well, or position the shot so that it is hidden, just a few ideas hope they help... keep shooting!

Great contrast between the water on one side of the surfer and the surf on the other. The angle really gives a feeling of movement and action.

The water is nice, the surfer looks like a statue to me. I guess it's because he's so so dark...??
