87 Oct 25 Comment Thank you, everyone! I will experiment with removing the tree, or at least part of it, as Chan's crop makes the people crammed into the corner a bit more than I am comfortable with. I did brighten the subject a bit and also added a vignette, but Steven's example shows me that I probably didn't do enough. I appreciate all your suggestions and comments! Oct 13th
87 Oct 25 Comment Beautiful, sharp hummingbirds! I think your decision to remove the third bird was a good one. And your cropping successfully removed a lot of distraction. I agree with Steven that the darker background and branch allow the birds to appear more vibrant. Congratulations on capturing such a fine image! Oct 6th
87 Oct 25 Comment The color pallette of this image is quite beautiful. I think I agree with Cincy that the molding might be better off gone. It looks like you must have used a fairly wide aperture with a very shallow depth of field, causing the upper part of the candle to be a bit out of focus, That, on its own, might not have been a problem, but the flowers make up a dominant amount of the image and they are very much out of focus, which I find distracting. Perhaps you could try cropping out even more of the flowers, thereby emphasizing the candle. Also, a small amount of straightening might also improve the image. It amazes me how continuing to work on a single image can really be a learning tool. Oct 6th
87 Oct 25 Comment I've never tried food photography, but I can see why this appealed to you. Kudos to you for experimenting! Children, even when they are grown, are part of what keeps us young. As are cameras, I find. Oct 6th
87 Oct 25 Comment The central flower really does stand out, with good detail on the petals. It strikes me as ever so slightly soft, but in a flower image I think it adds a bit of dreaminess to the image. Oct 6th
87 Oct 25 Comment A very commendable first effort!!! You did a great job of focusing. I'm no expert on astro photography processing, but it looks good to me. And the trees really add to the overall effect. Oct 6th
87 Oct 25 Reply Thank you Cindy! The conch shell was part of the ceremony. I considered taking it out for the sake of simplicity, but the eerie sound was so beautiful that I had to leave it in. Oct 6th
