About this image

I hope the elements guide all of you to a happy New Year as well!

Been reading about photo composition this past month. I'm continuing to try to experiment with the techniques I read about. Don't think I'll get it all right every time, or maybe at all... Feel free to leave or PM critique about it if you have some; I do want to learn.

Played around with some ENB dials I never tried before here as well. There are so many I haven't yet tried though, so not sure if there were any others that could've been good to use.

    I like the theme! Your character is very detailed.

    And the moment there is fire I'm sold on the shot :D But I am biased. (I have to say I really like the water texture too).

      Thanks friend! Happy New Year.

      Funny you mention the water. I was debating whether to include a behind-the-scenes shot, but worried it might spoil the magic a bit. Here it is. Maybe you (and others looking at the comments) might find it a bit amusing, like I do.

    Happy New Year.


    It's exciting to apply something you haven't done before).
    I am sure that you will succeed.

      Happy New Year Karina!
      Yes, it is definitely cool to try new things and learn. Great for finding new ways to work with.
      Thanks!

    I really like the concept for the composition, but if you're looking for critique: for me the character gets lost a little bit. While the fire and water feel like they're in the background, the other half feels too dominant to me and it's what my eye immediately goes to.
    Very cool though, I'd love to see more.

      Thanks for the honesty, appreciate it. I see what you mean. That was actually pretty close to some of the things I was thinking before I submitted it today, in that I was concerned the elements may be too busy/distracting, and the green side may be too big as a ratio of the picture.

      Very cool though, I'd love to see more.

      Thanks! I'll continue to see what else I can explore in the future.
