Yes, get what you're saying about Ansel's special qualities, on top of what you've mentioned,with good landscape,
you need to visualise the shot and capture the moment, even wait or go back another time to capture the shot in the right conditions,
there may be others but i can't think just now, just came of a late shift.
On your landscapes, #1 and #7 fell short a wee bit, funny how colour seemed to lessen the shots impact,
all others are great with the beach shot being best, it has a timeless feel to it with the ebb and flow of the shimmering wave
and peoples silhouette dotted along to infinity, seems you have travelled a bit too with shots from the Orient. :)
Hi Andy,
I agree with you that colour or contrast did seem to lessen the impact of the shots. I am still learning the different editing features in Photoshop and always encountering difficulties in mastering many of the controls, a bit of hit and miss. :( :scratch:
I do travel a lot and have been to many places, including different parts of China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, France, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Czech Republic, Egypt, Israel, Turkey, Morocco, USA ……. Canada. :D
I have seen so much that my mind has been widening with open eyes and I think things very different than before. :)
Hi Andy,
I think it would be more appropriate for me to open a new thread for those photos. :)
Here is a few more pics for this thread:-

Err...he looks a bit burnt RB, you sure you didn't use a blow torch to stop him on his tracks for this photo shoot,
one of them tricks you learnt from the BBC Wildlife department eh. :sofa: :D
No joking, tis very good i must say, well done. :thumbsup:
:lolsign: No he's not burned that's how they are, the alarming thing is i was shocked how much bigger he was than he is suppose to be fully grown..

I had a Mantis in my hand for about 5 mins but couldnt get the camera out intime befor it jumped off into tthe curtains, i was a bit hacked off at that. They are a bit like chamelion where they change colour to compensate the background they reside..I couldnt see it on the curtains when it dissapeared for the life of me.
