April 2025 - Feeding Reindeer

About the Image(s)
Had the fortune to go to Lapland last month. It was a total blast. Traveled about 25 minutes in a snowmobile pulled sledge into Lapland. This gentleman is a reindeer "farmer" who feeds the wild reindeer to be harvested at a later date.
I didn't do much to the photo except run it in Luminar Neo enhancement. I wasn't sure how to crop it.

You have caught the moment well, with your subject concentrating on his work and not looking at you. I would make 2 crops on the left remove the reindeer's backside and tail, on the right I would remove the head coming in low down. Posted: 04/06/2025 10:20:51
I wondered about cropping. I knew some needed to be done but not sure what. You know, one coming and going...both need to go. Great suggestion. Thanks. Posted: 04/06/2025 12:05:11
Jon has made an excellent suggestion to tighten up both sides which help focus the viewers attention. There is a lot of reindeer and this way we can stay on the 2 main subjects. The processing looks good with nice colors and contrast. The image looks to be a pinch soft with his jacket lettering the front reindeer. Posted: 04/16/2025 17:47:49
