Hi,

This is my first post and first favourite shot.

My name is Omar, I'm new to Digital Photography. I live in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia (Costa del sol but without topless beaches :wink ).

I took this photo in Germany before 2 weeks after it stopped snowing. I was staying next to Constance lake (Konstanz) I hope you like it.

I look forward to hearing your comments.

Canon 500D (T1i)
EF 28-135mm

    Good capture, just a tad too centered.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Very nice Omar, I slid the picture down to eliminate the distracting snow line at the top and boy that worked great for me.The circular brick is lovely with the birds and when you take the top off so it's not so centered like Harry said the blur in front is excellent. Just my opinion Omar but I like the feeling of the photo. HAVE FUN TAKING AND POSTING MORE PICS.clap.gifclap

    I do appreciate your comments so much, this is exactly what I'm looking for here. I tend to hear critiques rather than hearing compliments. I'm here to learn from you guys!

    I'm glad you liked the photo, although it's not as good as I thought it could be. You and Harry are absolutely right, I missed the "rule of thirds" in my shot.

    Once again, thank you :)
