In the first 2 you didn't do a good job of seperating the statue from the background. I'd go back and reshoot the last image a twilight when the tree lights are on but there is still a bit of color in the sky.

[Don Schaeffer]

Thanks MB. You are right--separating the background is hard in that light with a relatively wide angle lens. I did try some selective blurring.

I'm wondering if you moved right on the caribou shot if you would get it silhouetted against the sky.

Frog:

I wanted to catch the street in the image. Im my eye it looked great. The camera just messed up my vision of it.

Don.

Another suggestion is to possibly use a fill flash on the tree to make it stand out.

I think MB is right the lights need to be on in the last one.

I do like the first especially the contrasting murial in the background. A minor point is that it would have been better if the antler didn't merge with the green grass. Possibly an edit to alter things subtly may work otherwise a change of position for the reshoot.

Thanks Roger. I will try this one again.
