Hi Tom,

I really like Cosmos too and I really like the sharpness of your shot. I find the light a bit harsh, however. Maybe a couple hours earlier in the morning or late in the evening would give you softer more even lighting. Still a nice entry.

I agree Steve and I changed the photo. Sometime when I have a few more minutes I will try the Cosmos again with softer light.
Thanks for your comments,
Tom

Interesting photo, Tom! I like the idea although I wish there were a few more flowers for the WA topic. My principle complaint would be that the left side is so bright, even making the statue's right leg look blown out. The same shot with even lighting with perhaps some highlight light just on the stature would be perfect. Still, it is very nice to look at.

All the best,

Endre

Love the idea and the composition. But it does seem a bit too contrasty. Maybe if we saw more in the shadows and less highlights?

My thinking exactly.

Happy shooting,
