June Title - "Sunset and Bird"

How I did it -

Elizabeth Lautner	This is a really nice shot of the sunset. Not so sure I like the bird.
David Price	I like the idea, I was a fan of the 60s movies with all the split screen images so the insert appeals to me especially with the outer glow (must have a play with this) If there is a point of contention it would be the size of the insert and where to place it.
Ruth Rittichier	The sunset is well exposed, lovely and peaceful, with its horizontal lines to convey its calming effect.  As for the square, while a clever idea, in this case I find it to be jarring and counter to the soothing effect of the scene.  To call attention to the bird, could a good dose of Shadow/Highlights or a little glow around it have done the job?
Walter Ross	This image seems to have two center of interest, the bird and the sunset.  I think I would move the bird to the right side, maybe a horizontal flip.  I like the design of the image, with the highlight of the bird. I would like to put the bird in the sunrays, but I don't know how to do that.
Barbara Kuebler	Your sunset is evenly exposed and the color are good.  Since the bird was a surprise, I would have liked the littele square you set in into larger so he would have been more important.
Diana Fernandez	It is amazing what we sometimes don't see and the pleasant surprises that are found when examining our images. The image has a pleasing feel to it. Your exposure of the sun seems to be dead-on, just enough to be bright but not shocking. The light that falls upon the water is beautiful.
