About the Image(s)

It might take you a second to see what this is about. At the time it struck me as almost obvious that there was a creature in this log. It's cropped and I worked on the "eye" which was sort of there to start with. I darkened and added some blur to the background.

The shape is certainly there though doesn't jump out at me. Open the shadow a bit might help. I like what you did with the background to bring your eye to the subject.   Posted: 02/14/2025 00:46:54

To me it looks like the photos I've seen of Nessy. This wasn't at Loch Ness, was it?

Would it have been possible to lower the camera angle and get the sky as a background? The lake might have even better if possible. I would have like to see the shadows lightened some if it wouldn't had added too much detail to the Dragon.   Posted: 02/17/2025 19:51:28

I get the imagery but would like to see the shadows lightened just a bit. Not enough to destroy the fantasy, but the darkness sort of masks it also. Fun image.   Posted: 02/18/2025 19:36:07

I can see what yo were attempting to convey but had a hard time
seeing the eye. Perhaps more dodging of the dark area would help.   Posted: 02/19/2025 19:33:01

Looks like Nessie in Scotland. I might try lightening the dark area a bit.   Posted: 02/20/2025 14:16:20

You attempted creative photography. The shape is similar to Nessie. Please keep trying to lighten the dark area to see eyes.   Posted: 02/22/2025 14:47:34
