Cool looking bear and nice of him/her to pause feasting long enough to pose for the camera! I'm going to Alaska in less than two weeks and hope and pray I see some exciting stuff like you did. |

Very interesting, Will! And how creative of you to not waste your trip to the lighthouse! The milky way is wonderful, and I love the blue light around the feet of the figure. I will point to your photo as a excuse for all the stuff I carry around in my car - though I do get the sense that your stuff is deliberate and mine is just junk. |

Thanks Will! I appreciate your comments. Others have made the comment about infrared, too - I think it was just due to how bright the rays of sunlight were. It was close to mid day, as I recall. |

Thank you Lance! You exactly captured how I felt about the original, although the majority opinion is in favor of the corrected/cropped version. I'm considering working on a portfolio of photos using distortion for my club competition, but I will see what happens when I do some more experimenting. |

Interesting about the slight hint of sunlight in the image - I kept going back and forth between the two images, and while your rendition certainly conveys the cold more clearly, I am a big fan of subtle color in images that appear monochrome at first glance. |

Thanks you Steven! Yes, those trees on the left got straightened right out of the picture. I really need to do some more experimenting with camera tilt and distortion as well as learn how to use content aware fill in Photoshop. I'm glad I'm not the only one who forgets editing steps! |

Hi Dale, Thanks for your comments! I think the B&W conversion damped down the light in the original. I'm attaching the color original, which looks how I remember the scene. |

Hi Dale,
Your image is both simple and detailed! The randomness of the shadows and the regularity of the fence seem to balance each other. And the shadows beyond the fence add a bit of mystery to the scene. Very nice!

Steven,
Your two images have such different feeling to them! I like them both. The frosty cracks and the tire tracks over the shadow give a strong feeling of the cold and a sense of loneliness to the first one, while the shadow of the fence and the wonderful detail of the grass gives more of a feeling of observing and feeling the cold from the vantage of a safe place. So interesting how these details can make the same shadow give the viewer such different experiences! |

I really like how you enhanced the original image by flipping and warming it! Especially the warming. You take a simple scene and create a lot of interest with the shadows and the small accents of color on the tools. The warming works very well as a gentle shade of the brighter orange, and a nice contrast with the bright green. |

Hi Lance,
A very interesting image - I like it a lot. I do agree with Steven that flipping it horizontally adds to the impact. As to the size of the hand,, I'm not sure making it a larger part of the image (including part of the arm) would improve the image overall, as it might be an unbalancing factor. The reflections of the flames is a real plus. |
