Col,
Cheers, I get the drift, and what I suggested was a way around that. If you get close and use different perspectives to compose the shots, you won't get tourists in the shot, even if they are there - perhaps a bit like the BW shot (which may need a sharpen, as pointed out...)

Hi Emma,
What is it that is frustrating you / what are you attempting that is not yet working for you?
Is it something you are seeing in the image, or is it the functionality of PSE itself (or both?).

Ken,
Been to the end a fair few times, never seen my own work. There's probably something in the site programming that means you don't see work submitted under your own log-in.
Then again, through that same process, I've actually not been given the opportunity to vote on other's images, that then pop up in the gallery! Now how does that work:

Well done Ralf, and no wonder they were accepted.

Depend on how conscientious you get, and how long you can sustain that Voting tends to go in peaks and troughs for me - time available is a bit of an issue for most people, probably.

Colin, I really like your approach to the mono shot - heaps of character. It might also show the way for equally effective approaches to the propeller (what an impressive object), and the bow. The latter shots look a little 'touristy' just now, but some different perspectives & composition would give them a whole new dimension. These are just my own opinions mind - nothing scientific

The aged photo efect is a hoot Andrew - how nostalgic.

Repeat after me - Fur Is Fiendish! Hard to get a focus on, and this looks soft. The crop has lost a bit in translation (IMO), and yes, thus it's a bit tight. The other difficulty with animal heads is that they're long (as per the donkey joke). That means you are always going to be challenged by depth of field - or lack of it. This is particularly so at these short distances.
Then, when you add low light, and soft, light absorbing, hard-to-focus-on fur... well you know now what I'm driving at, I'm sure!
