PXL Shots

good shot, but not the best angle

The angle creates the mood, like don't talk to me, I'm not interested, or like me leave me alone until I've had my coffee lol . It's more a mood shot that a technically correct bird photo.

I strongly disagree with kyricom. Spectacular shot. Congrats!

these colors are amazing

I can totally relate to this morning mood, author...well captured

I love this. It has a lovely feel. The colours are perfect. And the position of the wires! Ah! This is a beautiful shot.

very nice shot. great job. like the mood. nice composition and placement.

super shot!!!!!!!!!!!!!! everyhting, starting from the angle, colour finishing with details and mood!

beautiful captured!!

one of the few pics I would hang in my place.

Thanks so much for your comments. It's one of the few of my pics I have hung in my place. It is not a crow or raven, it is smaller than that, also the beak is different, this has the beak of a seed eating bird. I have not actually worked out what it is yet. Have to get the bird book out.

Evil looking crow ,well seen.

instant favorite, love the composition and the colors and the mood of this shot, he has that leave me the hell alone attitude, this would make a stunning print to hang on a dark wall.

pose, schmose!..............leave me alone to look at the world..................! nice shooting author.

congratulations!!!!!!!!

ehm, wow! this is AWESOME! the dof, the focus the light. everything!

its looking at me

AMAZING, if that were me the paper would have gone flying and the spider would be no where to be seen.

wow, great detail.

very nice!! Bet it's heading for the employment ads... lol

so cool...awesome snap

Pretty eyes... too bad they're filled with tears

nice shot, try to change it into B&W, it will bring out that gloomy look and create a sad mood. just an opinion.

Excellent focus and definitely on topic. You have captured the fallen tear and the one about join it perfectly.

wish i could wipe them away, well done

great shot.

very clear, great photo...makes me want to cry ;]

Wow, just a perfect shot!

Really nice entry, B&W would perfect it I think.

She has a gorgeous, subtle face. The portrait is full of emotions. Added to favs!

Amazing. I think this is better in colors than in B/W.

NIce entry, guess this won't fit in the hole huh!

Good entry

Really cool idea here. You used the right technique to create a desired effect. It has really worked and the ball seems HUGE! Really well done!

Perfectly done to fit the theme of the contest. Stellar.

great, now a golfer would have liked it better it he hole had been huge and the ball small.

Really well done!

Wish my golf balls were that big...maybe I'd do better, well done author

It looks big, indeed....good colours and light, great entry...

This is really good.

what a shame, she would have been a beauty

Excellent shot and right on theme.

Fabulous entry. My favourite.

Very good entry, indeed!

Oh yeah, it fits. Late entry though ^^ But nice shot!

Pretty much anything is on topic in this contest as long as the background isn't black or white

Indeed -- and it's one of only a few which actually cared for a "user created" background. And by now it's still 3 hours until deadline, so it's not late either.

Really creative entry, well done.

ummm... what do you mean "reduced shadows by about 60%?" reduced with the lighting, or by editing?

Bad gramma kyricom. Should have put 'this' reduced the shadows by 60% don't have photoshop anyway on this computer my 30 day trial ended and I await my bought copy in the mail lol

you can download Gimp for free!................nice shooting by the way!

Nice entry, well done

nicely done

VERY nice. I cut some of this once in a while. I love this stone

What an amazing stone - fabulous, it looks sort of soft and squishy, nice pic.

Beautiful shot.

lovely

woow ,thats gorgeous !!!

wow...realy cool rock...nice find

this is amazing!

i love this so beautiful, no color? oh you mean as in gem to wear. wow this is so much better! i would keep this too, very nice shot, good job controlling the glare and capturing the colors

nice texture

speechless...!

It is not a chrissy as they are not in flower in my country at the moment, they flower from around Feb to may depending on when you prune them. This flower was picked in June. The daisy family is large and not restricted to the European daisy, all should have access to a daisy type. There are around 100 species just in australia and they are just the native ones not including the many introduced ones we have living in our gardens.

i have double daisys like this in my garden that haven't bloomed yet so no photos they boom in early august in the midwest USA, this on looks on the edge of opening all the way and looks similiar to the photo one shot down when opened, Mum which open much later in the year do looks similiar i agree

Some well known plants like Dahlia, Chrysanthemum, Aster and Calendula belong to the Daisy family, as well as some less common plants like Tithonia, Inula and Xeranthemum.

lovely

not so smart giving your identity away.

well done .......got it right for sure

Nice, classic, well done.
