79 Jan 25 Comment Hi Lauren, Pareidolia strikes again! Terrific tree. It might be better photographed at maximum aperture like f/2 to show the background more out-of-focus and provide visual separation between subject and background. But you can also do that in post processing by making a separate layer, blurring it, then masking so the blur layer includes only the background. I also slightly brightened the bristlecone and darkened the background. What great fun in imagining what we see in that old tree. Karl Jan 9th
79 Jan 25 Comment Hi Freddie, Great conceptualization. At first, I had a flashback to when we used a digital projector to project pattern images on figure models. Perhaps extracting the sculpture from all of its background, joining just the statue with the pattern image, and then placing it on a new, less busy, background could result in a more polished product.

79 Jan 25 Comment Hi Heather, You are successful in creating a pictorial painting. The technique is effective. It's reminiscent of a color bromoil print from the 1930's. The color is well managed. I see white birds in the background, but those in the foreground seem less distinct. I initially thought the foreground might be an ice floe. But good art is often ambiguous. Karl Jan 9th
79 Jan 25 Comment Hi Judith, Great interpretation! The contrast between pastel water and saturated, sharp leaf make this an outstanding interpretation of a common scene. The warm-cool color contrast intensifies interest. Perhaps the leaf is a bit too centered. I gave it a slightly asymmetric crop. Karl Jan 9th
