14 Jul 22 Reply Hi Kamal - I appreciate your sharing your experience - and the lovely image you've shared to illustrate your point. I agree with you and Xiao on where to put more emphasis for a better composition. Thanks for that! Jul 31st
14 Jul 22 Reply Hi Xiao - You've provided some interesting changes for consideration. I'll play around a bit more with the image in post. Thanks for your input. Jul 19th
14 Jul 22 Comment Hi Tom - If memory serves - I believe there were more comments from others than there are currently. I'll look into it to see what can be done, if anything to bring those comments back up. Anyway, I just came back to your image to let you know there is also a VIVID image in Group 32 as well as the other two already mentioned. Jul 19th
14 Jul 22 Reply Hi Karen - Thanks for voting. I think you've made it unanimous. I appreciate your feedback. Jul 16th
14 Jul 22 Reply Hi Greg - I believe I cropped out some of the truck in my reluctance to go one way or the other. I'll take another look at keeping more of it in place as well as work on the vibrance. Thanks for sharing your thinking. Jul 16th
14 Jul 22 Comment Hi Xiao - The architecture chosen supports your theme and the story being conveyed, resulting in a strong composition with good leading lines. Your choices in processing have improved upon the original. Nicely done - Jul 14th
14 Jul 22 Comment Hi Greg - You've really caught the beauty of this slot canyon. As others have indicated, your decisions in cropping, editing and overall processing are spot on. Your emphasis is on the shaft of light entering the canyon and it makes sense to darken the canyon walls to strengthen this center of interest. I particularly like the impact of light on the left wall and the textures highlighted throughout. I believe your original, more closely represents the true coloring of the canyon (in my minds eye anyway), but I find the improved version is dramatic and provides artistic interest. Well done - Jul 14th
14 Jul 22 Comment Hi Kamal - I agree with the comments from Greg and Tom. With the water being muddied, the image is a bit one note even though the boats and the vantage point provides for a nice composition. I think the image would be stiking as a B&W or monochrome. I've probably said it before, but can never figure out how you get such clarity given the vibrations you must surely experience in flight. A nice opportunity shot! Jul 13th
14 Jul 22 Reply Hi Ingrid - I didn't include the culvert nor the road's edge where I was standing on purpose. I thought that keeping it in the image would take away from the feeling that the water was a bit out of control. Thanks for the input - Jul 12th
14 Jul 22 Reply Hi Tom - I appreciate your observations and thinking on the tree trunk.

14 Jul 22 Comment Hi Karen - Dessert is a small sacrifice for such a well-executed capture! A nice composition and great colors. Try as I might, nothing stands out even as a nit this time around. I do like Greg's idea of adding a slight vignette. Good job! Jul 12th
14 Jul 22 Comment Hi Ingrid - I'd agree that this submission is calendar worthy . . . especially if you remove the truck and I assume the fisherman standing behind it. I also agree with Tom's other insights. I'm guessing you were on a tripod to get such crisp focus. A lovely Montana landscape - Well done! Jul 12th
