Greetings from the Critique Club :)
Hi Martin...
This photo ties with your song title nicely. There is no doubt in my mind that I'm looking at a kangaroo :)
My first impression of this photo is that it lacks punch. There is not much here that really grabs my attention. I think the image could be a bit stronger with a few minor compositional changes.
See the large horizontal root just below the kangaroo's feet? Take a piece of paper and cover up the part of this image from that root to the bottom and then look at your image again. This minor crop change creates two improvements for me in this photo.
1 - it removes the uninteresting foreground. There is noting in that area of the photograph that adds impact to your image.
2 - it re-positions the kangraoo to a more desireable location in the frame (on a 'third' intersection).
In the current presentation, the kangaroo and the tree end a little too close to to the center of the frame to suit my taste.
A third improvement to this image may be to add a little extra sharpness with software. The image seems to be just a bit soft, but I think a sharpen filter in photoshop would fix that right up...
Keep up the good work :)

| Great tune! Neat picture (and I know you couldn't change this), but the 'roo and the dirt are so similarly colored, he blends in well. Very good focus/cropping. (Joke - it doesn't look like it is tied down at all!) 7 Swash |

| I love it! A Kangaroo. I want to see a closer shot of the Kangaroo. It's a little soft and lacks detail but cute anyway. |

| Love the song. The photo appears to be a little out of focus overall or needs sharpened some. I find myself straining my eyes to get a good look, and focus is only thing I can think of. The kangaroo is posing for you at all. You'd think he'd at least stand up for a photo. It's not a bad photo and might just be my eyes. I'll give it a 5. PTL |

| Looks like the cousin of the one that jumped in front of my car a few days ago. Cute shot. |

LOL! I thought it was "Tiny Kangaroo" when I was growing up! oh well.
poor thing looks bored, but what an awkward/ususual way for the animal to be sitting. hmm. interesting. |
