Reader's picture

By Natalie Knibbs

A great picture of this animal tap-dancing on a hot rock at Loteni. It has a nice blurred background and, although parts of the animal are starting to go a tad soft, I think the pic gets away with it. A square crop might have improved the picture by removing some of the empty space at the top and the tiny blurred bit at the bottom. I also think it would benefit from a slightly warmer tone, which could be achieved by increasing the saturation or colour temperature.

Comments please...

NB. Out of interest, Photo World at Pick 'n Pay Centre now offers 8-inch square prints. I've been doing some square pictures here's a chance to get them printed.

This is a lovely picture Natalie. How did you get so close? I think he may have been looking at something to eat, therefore allowing you to take a pic before he ran away??? Nice clear shot even though his leg is starting to blur, I think it works great because it draws your eye to his face which has so much character.
Well Done
