Feb 1, 2016		     Glad to see more people getting a chuckle out of this. He gets different costumes at different times of the year. Rumour has it that when they first found him, he had a 12 year old magazine in his hands (standard waiting room fare). They thought he was a patient who nipped out for a smoke.

Feb 1, 2016		     Were you up a ladder or keeping him company? I like the humour and hope that Santa gets your message.

Jan 31, 2016		     Glad to share a laugh. I'll brighten/adjust contrast a bit as suggested.

Anthony I'd be happy to teach you all about Santa and how to avoid the lumps of coal you get :-) As for the banding, I'll have to know what you were drinking when you saw it. hehehe

Seriously. This Santa sits on the roof of a local chiropractor's clinic year round. As of this morning the snow storm has torn his top to shreds and he is now almost nude except for his hat and smile.

Jan 31, 2016		     Nice lines, they work very well. Needs little more contrast.

Jan 31, 2016		     Intriguing and humorous, I would love to know more about your subject. Your composition and subject is good, however I am seeing some banding and clipping of green and blue in the sky... Not sure why...

Jan 31, 2016		     Haha. made me laugh. Needs a quick 'auto levels' to sort out the brightness issue. GL.

Jan 29, 2016		     Not sure the photo itself will put your entry at the top, but for the originality and making me laugh - I gotta give you points!

Jan 28, 2016		     Needs to be brighter. Snow always causes underexposure. Probably needs +1 or +2 EV compensation.
