Newbie McNey in San Antonio, Tx

i hope to learn some more with this shot I took quite a while ago while visiting the McNey Museum in San Antonio, Texas. Just 89 miles from Austin where I live. They have really nice grounds.

I did several things to my entry herein, one was to put one of our older cats on the steps.

Re: McNey in San Antonio, Tx

Hello,

I live in SA.

I find your shot good, but the cat is a little big. Its also to bright for the picture, try darkening him in. Maybe some burning.

You were right to put something there, it made things interesting.

goodluck

Re: McNey in San Antonio, Tx

She is a big cat tho! I did burn her in already, maybe I should do it some more tho.
Thanks for the critique. I need all the help I can get.

I am from San Antonio also and I would also agree that the cat is too big, and the edges of the cat need to be smoothed.

Darkening it a tad would help too.
