34 Mar 26 Reply It takes a while to understand all the layer modes. You can do a lot. Some of my images have hundreds of layers. The next thing to learn is layer masks. Mar 25th
34 Mar 26 Reply This is much better. Mar 25th
34 Mar 26 Reply Thanks. A keyline is a good suggestion. Mar 16th
34 Mar 26 Comment Great color palate. The gargoyles are well placed. I like that your process has also recovered a lot of detail from the shadows. Even without the gargoyles, this is an improvement from the original. Mar 6th
34 Mar 26 Reply Thanks. I had several more choices, but chose these three because they fit best together. Mar 2nd
34 Mar 26 Comment Everything looks good except the cropping and placement of the feet. The center image is the best of the three in terms of a natural looking crop and shadows, but they all need more detailed cropping. Mar 2nd
34 Mar 26 Comment I saw books immediately.
This is extremely well composed. You've pulled a lot of elements into a cohesive image. Good color, good composition, lots of interest. I do see something I might change, and that is the roofs of the two right books. They have clear straight line overlays where they meet the book, while the other three have more shadow and curve. Making the roofs a tiny bit larger and dropping a shadow might be less obvious.

34 Mar 26 Comment The scale of this doesn't work for me. The overall composition is fine, And the tree is fine, but the moon is so oversized that it looks out of place. I would reduce the size of the moon to be more congruent with the background.
For the background, you could try combining edge detect with additional layers in overlay or screen mode to create more definition and less noise. As it is, there is an overall mismatch of contrast between the mountain and everything else.

68 Mar 26 Reply Yes. I see no violations now. Excellent work. Mar 4th
68 Mar 26 Comment Looks like a unique performance. The Fuji has done well in this case. The depth would be more dramatic if the dancers were not on the same plane. A different perspective could add a lot. Mar 3rd
68 Mar 26 Reply Burst mode works well in good light. In lower light, the exposures become too long and the images are blurry. I won my only gold medal with a burst image from a moving train. Mar 2nd
68 Mar 26 Comment This is beautiful , but there is a huge window breach. Mar 2nd
68 Mar 26 Comment An excellent hyperstereo, with lots of interest and sharp detail. Well done! Mar 2nd
