Aditya,
I uploaded your image and deleted the previous thumbnail. Somehow the image had got crunched.
A fine image. A bit of head turn towards you would have strengthened the image manifold. Your image looks a little dark. Actually, due to the border it normally becomes difficult to judge. So confirmed with the histogram as well. Did the corrections.
The image nicely depicts the environment the black bucks live in. The houses in the background tell us the harmony with the human beings and the protection accorded to it.
Thanks a lot. Even I was concerned about the image looking underexposed, but every time I opened it in Photoshop, it looked fine. So getting a little confused I preferred to leave it alone. I take your opinion regarding borders on images to be critiqued, but after following a standard practice with all my web images since two years, it now feels a little weird and awkward to me to suddenly start posting them without the border. A change I have planned to impose upon myself in this regard is to at least change the colour of the border to either white or black depending upon the mood of the image. Hope to be able to implement that soon.Quote:
