Hello to all... Again i don't know why i cannot post my comments along with my image! I tried firefox and internet expolorer, still facing the same problem. I even tried some of my work station running Linux, Mac OS and Vista. Seems no luck! Same problem... But at at least i knew its not from my end. Any who... I submitted a new tutorial last night... Its about "How To Create Soft Glamour Light Effect" I know it will be very useful for all the members/photographers who specially shoot models Hope you will like it and if you are interested you can visit the tutorial link by clicking the thumb nail below Now this shot here was taken from my backyard [LAKE]... Its one of those beautiful swans that I can see around my house Hope you will enjoy NATTARIOUS[C] Colours and as always, comments/reviews are most welcome. Love you all...

A very difficult capture with the sun in that position, I would have tried higher F stop & shutter speed with that ISO to try & reduce the under/ over exposure effect Stuart

I have this problem sometimes with IE and I hate that too... Perhaps you forget some "/" in your code html... I like so much this calm mood with this beautiful swan and as always, you have a very nice color and lighting !!! Excellent Dear Joe !! Good sunday and kiss :)

Beautiful capture - so serene and graceful. I love the contrast of shadow and light and the reflection is superb!. Thanks for the tut - I'll have a play with that one in the next couple of days (it looks nice and simple to follow with outstanding results - just like your first tut!!) xx

I like your compo, the image is too static thou, I think a bigger aperture would've been better to throw some of the water out of focus. As for the contrast, too much, it's caused this low detail on the swans face and burn out on the feathers on the right. I expect better from you but yes the swan is stunning, very graceful creatures. About the zombie woman: I understand why you used words instead of symbols - I bow down ;)

I like a slight diagonal way of the water flow. Nice pose, like this beauty looking herself in a water!

Your capture is so delightfully elegant. A swan, a creature of of pure beauty and grace, humbly floating alone in waters as calm as its demeanor suggest.... Superbly serene... Staring at its own reflection or perhaps cast down in contemplation, this swan is an image to embrace, a lesson to be had in how one ought to portray oneself - or the amiable way to greet others in one's otherwise lonesome milieu. Great mood wonderfully enhanced by your superior composition. I applaud with utter respect for your work.
