"Fine Art Experiments"
I hate the term "fine art" but I don't know what else exactly to call these besides just black and white.

New Life
This is not a good shot in the way we ould normally think of but I at least the got the eye dead sharp of this 5-7 day old Wood Pigeon which we have done our best to protect both parents.

Golden Beak
I spotted this blackbird tucked among the leaves. Unlike most birds, it didn’t flinch when I raised my camera it simply stayed put, almost as if it was posing for the shot.

Growth From Decay
This is deeply meaningful to me. Surviving and blossoming despite all attempts to stop me blossoming on my own terms.

Flowers In The Ground
Flowers growing in our garden. Another experiment with sliders in post. Mostly perspective which is not easy because one can make a move and it says I can't do that!

I like the light. The pose is fine. If I had any issues with this shot is the frame, it seems a bit too long (perhaps crop to the small freckle above her "V" neck). Also, her right shoulder seems to have too much say, it drags my eye away from her face and out of the frame on that side. Do you have room to shift the frame slightly to the left shoulder?
To her left shoulder? I do. I was just trying to keep her face centered in the composition. I’ll play around with it a bit, as well as maybe an 8x10 framing.
It might be tilt of her head that forces the eye?
she had her hand on her hip so the shoulders are a bit uneven
here's the reworked crop, what do you think?
I like this crop more. Just bringing the bottom edge up makes a difference.It also seems to reduce the effect that her right shoulder has in the picture. Certainly, it seems more balanced.
It might be more balanced but now it's a bit off center...
i feel like this might be a little better
