Title: Guanaco Puma Snacks
Post by: maddogmurph on April 08, 2019, 12:19:03 am

I called them Puma Snacks, but apparently they're called Guanacos.

The light echoing the curve of the larger animal's back is lovely. My only criticism would be that the foreground is rather dark.

Unfortunately the foreground is blending in with the animals. A nice composition.

I agree, very pleasing picture. I'd suggest applying a lighter gradient on the grassy foreground (from the bottom) and gentle elliptical local gradients around the animal legs.

Yes. The foreground looks realistic to me. Excellent sky.

Love the shot. Love the dark foreground.  Matches the moody sky.

Great shot. I like how the guanacos are placed in the frame. The soft colors are perfect and the cloud that forms a halo just above the top guanaco adds a bit magic…
