Judy, I do prefer your version based on Robert's suggestion. Thanks for the nature lesson as well!

Thanks for including your "before" image and details about your processing. I have yet to delve into the world of photostacking, so I appreciate your detailed description of your work set up and processing. I think you have done an excellent job of bring out the details in this apparently very tiny shell. Your depth of field is spot on. Also, the fact that some of the glass beads extend into the shell, makes the shell placement more natural. Your HSL adjustments are well done as we can clearly see the individual colors and details in the shell. Well done! |

I have a couple of thoughts. Both involve changing the crop. One idea is that you could crop in closer but include the frog and the snake. Darken the frog a little. It looks to me as if they are both staring in the same direction. Might work? The second is to continue your crop further to eliminate most of the background. Blur any remaining background. Then we have an interesting photo of the snake with quite a bit of detail. |

We still have these blooming in our yard. I will try again with a single flower and softer color. Thanks! |

I think the slight blurr will be perfect. Congrats on having it placed for sale!

Good point about needing more canvas at the top. Thank you for the suggestions!

Beautiful photo of this old steam train. The detail on the train engine is excellent. A couple of thoughts for you to consider: I wonder if you could slightly blur the train station building and hillside? Maybe clone out the buildings? There is so much going on in the scene, I think these detract a little from the train. Second, have you considered darkening the cement foreground (lower left) just a little. It is brighter than your subject. Just something to consider. |

One of the things I enjoy about this group is that I learn things unrelated to photography as well. Living most of my life in the PNW I was not familiar with the flower or the birds you mentioned. Your photography of the flowers is fine. However, even if you had not mentioned it, I can see artifacts from where you moved and/or cloned items. I don't know if this can be repaired or if you would need to go back to the beginning and try it again.... hopefully not. |

Betwen the 2Lips and the gr 30 wizards, you are making me laugh today! Nice job using the lightbox. The diagonal placement of the subject is pleasing to the eye. I do enjoy the light glowing through the leaves and flower petals. For a less formal look, I think trying a pastel shade of green or other color might be worthwhile. |

I enjoy the soft golden tones in this image. The seagull is perfectly placed in relation to the sun and your horizon is straight. I'm not sure if you need palm fronds on each side? Maybe crop out the ones on the right? Perhaps someone else has a suggestion about that?

Robert, Of course you are welcome to comment any time! I see your point about the blue. Bleeding hearts are a shade plant, so a softer color would be more appropriate. I was experimenting with using colored glass as a background. I have other colors. I will try them. |
