79 Dec 24 Reply Hi Judith, The Belsnickel is a Christmas mainstay of the Pennsylvania German community, aka Pennsylvania Dutch. He brings pretzels and candies to good children and local coal to bad ones. He can be depicted nearly Santa-like or blackened. The decorated, live holiday tree is about 8-10 feet behind the figure. This lens is also fun in highway night photography. Karl Dec 16th
79 Dec 24 Comment Hi Lauren, What a great scene. It could be cropped several ways. As-is is OK but a bit busy. Cropping out just the visually confusing section at lower right would help simplify the picture. Cropping just to the left log and ducks would be the simplest option. Color and symmetry are excellent. Karl Dec 13th
79 Dec 24 Comment Hi Freddie, The switch to vertical and contrast increase make an entirely new image. Emphasizing the detail in the ripples brings impact to the scene. Well done. Karl Dec 13th
79 Dec 24 Comment Hi Heather, I see an interesting intersection of color and line. Your enhancement is good without overdoing as we so often see in exhibitions today. The image can stand alone for its calm, graphic composition. For excitement, a person, animal, moon, or spaceship could help. Karl Dec 13th
79 Dec 24 Comment Hi Peter, Definitely electric. The tiny red areas make the image come alive. The grainy texture from cropping and sharpening to a small part of the scene helps make the critter otherworldly. The focus softness in parts of the image adds some depth. Interesting. Karl Dec 13th
79 Dec 24 Comment Hi Judith, You have a good 'eye' for seeing pictures in the larger scene. Great cropping! The increased clarity and saturation make the image more illustration than natural photograph. The shapes and red color suggest a cross burning and falling. The clarity enhancement gives the scene a very metallic feel, suitable for printing on glossy metallic paper or aluminum. Flipping the image horizontally may be stronger for a Western view of a falling cross. Definitely 'fine art' for its ambiguity. Karl Dec 13th
