Day 9 - Ripples

Comment by JunieMoon:
Your water is wonderful. The goose must have been moving though because it seems less sharp then the water and also not as well exposed. Maybe could use a little fill in light on the front. Not sure if that is something you can do in photoshop. I have a setting called fill in flash in my Photo Impact program which lets me adjust darks. Maybe if you went to shadow/highlights and adjusted shadow it would give just enough extra exposure to create a better detailed area on the front of the goose.

lighting is good and so is the clarity. Would love to have seen more of her face since she looks adorable!

Very nice reflection and contrast / movement in the water. Maybe consider a little dodging on the white part of the swan's face? Pretty photo.

beautiful symmetrical composition, i like the circular ripples of water around him, gives a nice sense of motion.

The dodgeing in on the bird seems like it extended out past the actual bird's head and into the water and so it has only like half a halo around the bird and its a tiny bit destracting. Either way, there is some nice sharpness in clarity in the reflection in the water is very nice
