85 Mar 21 Reply 50/50 chance, you are quite the gambler :) Mar 12th
85 Mar 21 Reply This is the Interurban Ohio Electric Railroad Bridge in Waterville, OH. Wikipedia has an entry on it. As I said to Don, I prefer the image this way as I feel it reflects the type of day it was. With the high humidity and light fog all the colors were muted. I think it has sort of a desolate feeling to it. Mar 12th
85 Mar 21 Reply Hi Don,thanks for you comments. If I were judging this image I may be inclined to judge it based on what you have said. Persnally I prefer the image this way as I feel it reflects the type of day it was. With the high humidity and light fog all the colors were muted. Mar 12th

85 Mar 21 Comment Hi Bob, I like this image. I think it is well composed, I like how the left of the square is cut off and the shadows flow off to the right. To my eye the exposure is well handled. I think the image could be sharper. Dick suggested that the softness might be due to cropping. Do you think that is the issue or is it focus? Mar 9th
85 Mar 21 Comment I think Dick has made some good comments on all of the images in our group. Aesthetically I think a higher angle to expand the plane would be nice. I do think that your image portrays a cramped suburbia, while a higher angle might look more spacious. I guess it depends on what story you mean to convey. Mar 9th
85 Mar 21 Reply I like the way you opened up the shadows. Your rendering still shows that it is late in the day (or very early). Mar 9th
85 Mar 21 Comment Hi Lisa, I agree somewhat with Dick's comments but none the less I do like your image. I think it was well composed and lit. I guess the thing with a drone image is that viewers expect it to shout "drone image" :) Mar 9th
85 Mar 21 Reply It was an error on my part, which makes it all the more painful an experience. I was trying to film the sunset under this crumbling bridge and I got too low. Mar 9th

Thanks for the comments Dick. The Mavic Pro does not have aperture adjustments. I also have a Mavic Pro 2 with the Hasselblad camera which does have full manual control. I hesitate to fly the Pro 2 over water since I fatally dunked my previous Mavic Pro in the river. Anyhow, yes there was a lot of haze, we had a lot of snow and ice and warm resulted in a very eerie atmosphere. 		Mar 9th

92 Mar 21 Reply Thanks for the comments Beverly. It is a nice lens to have, with it one can be prepared for most photo situations. Mar 29th
92 Mar 21 Reply Thanks for the comments Chuck. Yes, too bad about the feet. I'm trying not to frame images so tight, there are plenty of pixels to allow cropping later on Mar 29th
92 Mar 21 Comment Hi Marianne, I appreciate your creativity. I think this is a great image that seems to merge photography and graphic arts. It is obvious that you put a lot of effort into this image and I think the results are worthwhile. I did not think of it until I read Chuck's comments but I agree that showing more of the street scene might improve the overall impact of the image. I think you have a wonderful image here. Mar 13th
92 Mar 21 Comment Hi Brandon, I like your image very much, just as it is. It is so unusual to see empty streets in broad daylight. I think the muted colors with the bright yellow taxi give a strong message of loneliness and despair. Usually I am bothered by tilting vertical lines and such but not in this case, I think it adds to the surrealism of the image. I could do without the wire in the upper left, I find it somewhat distracting. Mar 13th
92 Mar 21 Reply Hi Chuck, I like the subject and the composition. I think that after getting your image you might have stepped to the left and possibly got an image without the head tree. Mar 13th
92 Mar 21 Reply Thanks for the comments Albert. Mar 13th
92 Mar 21 Reply Thanks for the comments Marianne. Mar 13th
92 Mar 21 Reply Thanks for the comments Brandon. I think a 300 does come in handy at times, you can seem to be photographing something else and then get a quick candid image of someone. I have better lenses but I usually have a Tamron 28-300 on my camera when I am just out looking around without any particular in mind to photograph. Mar 13th
92 Mar 21 Comment I like the black and white rendering, I think it works better than the color version. I feel that you did a very good job with the composition, I like how you cropped the image, even if the distraction had not been in the original I think the tighter crop helps to focus attention on the cyclists. I like the angles of the buildings and how every thing seems to be in focus. I think you have a nice sky and good details in the shadows. I think if the cyclists were lightened up just a bit they would stand out more. Mar 9th
