Hi Haseeb this image has a WOW factor to me ....... and definitely a very BIG one .
Love the overall scene , tone and colors . In a really perfect world i would have loved the sun bigger or the subject smaller for fully being in the sun ......... but that is just a wish
The only crit i have is the comp ..... look at my RP what i think where it needs to be .
Hi Haseeb - Thanks for the info about the Red List status. As soon as I opened this I said half of the fg needs to go and then I scrolled down and saw that Andreas thought the same. It definitely strengthens an already excellent image. Well seen and executed.
Wonderfully seen an executed and the repost is far stronger. Good work by all above :) a
