This one doesn't quite do it for me. The issues I see are the background - too much in focus - too cluttered - draws my attention.
Another is the general lighting is quite bright except for the shadowed log - but the contrast just doesn't work well. I'm thinking it is the direction of the shadow - needs to really show up to enhance the log rather than hide it. -- Best regards, Bruce Wednesday, December 31, 2008, 7:44:48 AM, you wrote: DJB> Hi all.
