2 Apr 20 Reply Not harsh at all, Harry. I joined this group to learn from people who are more experienced photographers than I am, so your honesty is appreciated. Apr 25th
2 Apr 20 Comment This is a beautiful image. I think the enhancements Hung made work well with the image, too. Apr 25th
2 Apr 20 Reply Thank you for the feedback, Piers. I did not de-shadow...I'm still learning the editing portion, so thanks, I had no idea I could do that!

I hope the Cedars come back so you can capture them!

2 Apr 20 Comment I think this composition turned out great. The touches you made to the farmer to enhance his image make him standout against the background (and I love that background!). Apr 9th
2 Apr 20 Comment I'm always impressed by the rodeo shots I see. It's challenging, I'm sure (I've not yet been to a rodeo). The minor edits Beverly made make the rider and horse stand out. Apr 9th
2 Apr 20 Comment I have a picture of one of these flowers - or a similar flower - as my wallpaper on my phone, so I was drawn to this photo immediately. The edits you chose improved the image. Apr 9th
2 Apr 20 Comment Nice image. The way you used the sun-ray option and the brightening of the sails works for me. Apr 9th
2 Apr 20 Comment Harry, I really like the choice you made to edit into the B&W. I think it made for a much better image. Apr 9th

59 Apr 20 Reply Thank you for both crops. I won't be able to do this for the spring :-( Schools have been closed for the year and therefore there are no youth sports. But I'll keep pulling from my archives to be ready for the fall and to continue learning how to improve. Apr 27th
59 Apr 20 Comment I think this is an interesting shot. I'll defer to the others on whether it's suitable for exhibit, Apr 15th
59 Apr 20 Comment Nice shot. I like the blur on the background rider. Apr 15th
59 Apr 20 Comment I love the capture of all the facial expressions.The action is great! Fabulous shot. Apr 15th
59 Apr 20 Comment Great title! :)

I think one of the things I've enjoyed most with sports photography is capturing a moment you wouldn't capture in portraits. In this instance, it's the muscles in his neck, the strain of his arms, the look in his eyes...this is a great shot.

59 Apr 20 Reply Thank you for the feedback and editing suggestions, Diane. I will incorporate them as I edit more of these images. Apr 9th
59 Apr 20 Reply Thanks, Bruce! It's more fun going back through these images now that I am developing a better eye for what makes a good shot. I've made some composite pictures as end-of-season gifts for the players my husband coaches in the past and I think I may start to do that again. Apr 9th
