Love it.. POV, composition, light and details.. all work very well for me Ian. I thin the chosen DOF works well in this as well. Nice work.

Very clever. Made me smile straight away. Fabulous composition and POV :toast:

Had some doubts about the composition - here's an alternative

I like this too Ian, however doesn't quite have the impact of the first, for me at least..

It's the first one for me too Ian, lovely colours and the use of DOF is superb, a very well thought out piece of work.

I would go for the first one too - much more impact. Well put together and great use of dof too :toast:

Love them both - yes one has a little more impact, but if I had to make a choice it would be No. 2!

at this size I think the first one works best, although if seen a bit larger I think the 2nd one might clinch it. :smile: Both very nice shots though.

This is a real cracker. I like the second one best. Great pov, light and composition. :smile: :smile:
Posted by Paul Inglis on September 7, 2009 at 6:04 AM
Brilliant Ian! Love the first as it has loads of impact but the seconds is equally as good!
Posted by Des Ong on September 7, 2009 at 9:11 AM
I think they're both great Ian, good capture.

Both are great pictures. But like the second one most.

both excellent - but would prefer the first as a touch more impact in the shot - well captured

cheers
