So, in a wild departure from the subject du jour, I have these offerings...

Your thoughts?

These are good photos. The second is definitely a keeper: well frames, well exposed, well lit, well focused, ..... and ..... interesting. I wish there were a repository of well executed photos that the forum could use as examples of what other members here are capable of doing. Yeah, I know, we can link to the member's thread. But it would be nice to have, say a locked sticky, with examples of the best of the genre to use as aids with C&C or were someone looking to improve their skills could go to have a look at well crafted images.

Thus I would nominate your second image to the repository.

Wow, I really appreciate those kind words.

And that is a great idea for the "teaching" of photography!

Cheers

The model needs a lot of skin smoothing. I like #2.

 

[Mike Lamb]

They are both sublime. You could crop 1 so the rock is on center. The tails come off anyway, right?
#2 is sweet. It looks like there is a little hair above the nose that could disappear.

These are awesome, and I love that little dude! I wouldn't crop the first one though, solely based on how cool that piece of woods looks in the upper-left.

WOW! Number 2 is amazing! Look at those details

#2 is very nice!!!!

Yeah, don't you just hate scaly skin on the models?

Thanks.

I could crop...I was also going to do a little cosmetic surgery to fix the tail...will take a look when this week gets a little less busy.

Many thanks for your input.

Now that is interesting - you are the second to notice the wood, but you like it...the last person didn't.

Thanks for the nice words.

Thanks Derrell.

Both are really good. Specially #2... the framing is great.
Probably some cropping in the first one and as you said, fix to tail to make it end within the picture.
