Fresh New Snow

Love the photo....Only thing I can see to improve is I wish the fountain was not in it...I feel it contrast to the rest of the feeling of the photo. Unfortantly I am sure the only way you could remove it is by croping and this may lose a lot of the sky quality. But still an excellent photo....I give it a 10 and a favorite :-)

subject is slightly underexposed...a little dodging may help the matter.

Subject is overexposed. Recomend shooting quicker or a smaller apature. Since this was advanced editing you could have shot so that none of the subject was over exposued and used a slight dodge to brighten up the other side of the branch.

Shadows are too harsh. You have to look very very closly to even see there is a baby in the photo. Some dodging may help but the diffrence in light is so extream I don't know if there is any way you could save this photo.

Shadows are too harsh, parts are overexposed. Shadows are so harsh they greatly distract from subject.

The lighting creates harsh shadows on the subject and the background. This destracts from the subject. Recomend diffusing the light, or removing the light and increasing exposure time. Also the expression of the subject seems awkards at best.

New Growth After The Fire

dodging the background to make it less bright, and less overexposed would help bring focus to the subject. The subject should not be dimmer than the background.
