Thank you for your input. Loved the idea of the "rule of third" for the circled net; and you are probably right about all the water as not necessary. But some time, we break the rules to make the image from a different perception. I like your effort in playing with the image and give it a BW treatment. I appreciate your point of view (POV).
Take care & Stay safe.
Cheers.

A well composed portrait. But the white marks on the wall is a distraction. You may consider to address the white mark. You achieved the good depth of field. The ring on the wall next to him, really added to the image. Overall a nice portrait you have shared. Good work. Cheers.

A lovely image you shared. I like the dreamy tone of the image in the mist. But the "the strings (reins) are really black" as mentioned by Xiao. This really draw our immediate attention on that as distraction. Probably you could use some Photoshop, to clone out the area matching with the other adjoining areas. That post process could really keep the integrity of the overall effort.
Loved the motion and the riders concentration of the eyes while he is controlling the horse.
Nice work.
Cheers.

14 Jun 21 Comment Hi Greg,
Greetings.
I hope you remain safe from the ongoing pandemic.
I loved the image that you took years ago. Even though the two consecutive hurricane ripped the island off, but surely they could not take their spirit off. This expressed in his incredible smile. The spotlight on his faces and hairs really added to the image. Xiao is right about the placement, but a street photo is a street photo. After we capture, we always have this mind of "Wish I could do better". An well composed image and a great moment to capture. Nice work.
Stay safe my friend.
Cheers.

14 Jun 21 Comment Hi Darcy,
Greetings. Hope all is well with you. I like the image but it lacks a little more details. To recover some details, I took the liberty to work with the image, in the PS CS6. I used Gamma ray correction, shadows & highlights & a bit light adjustment to recover the details of the boat. Take a look at the attached image.
Thanks for sharing.

Stay safe
Cheers.

An well composed image but the noise seems more. The expression of the subject looks spontaneous. The coil of the ropes hanging on his shoulder, gave the confidence in his posture. Good work and thank you for sharing.
Cheers.

14 Jun 21 Comment Hi Ingrid,
Greetings. Hope you are keeping safe with your loved ones.
An amazing composition with this architectural theme. The image really bring out the life of that environment. Color preferences instead of Black and White also work fine here. Even though black and white version of Stephen is also dramatic, but I prefer the color version. The warm and cool part of this image expressed nicely. The low lights and soft colors are mostly complementing each other. Great work, Thanks for sharing.
Stay safe
Cheers.
Kamal.

Greetings again. I am being touched by your words of appreciation and inspiration. I also agree with your suggestion and possible remedy of the upper right corner brightness issue. I will remember them for future endeavor. Answer- Actually there is no barrier. its a natural big river (River Jamuna), where waves creates those beautiful sand dunes and beaches. The fishes found in this river are as follows - knifefish, helicopter catfish, different types of shrimps & many more. (See photo attached)
Stay safe and stay blessed.

Greetings my friend.

Thank you very much for your kind words of appreciation.
I appreciate your inputs on the music and raw sound of the events. Next time I will surely keep that in mind.

I hope to see you here in our place when this event occurs. Let this pandemic be over and we can surely plan something like that together. I will be very happy to see our other friends of this group to accompany you here with us to see it for yourself.

Stay safe and stay blessed.

I hope you keeping fine in this difficult time.
Thank you for your input and suggestions. Yes, it is a repeated issue that, I could not get rid of the duplicates. I will really consider the suggestions, like Rajani did in her last 2 videos, voice narrated it to explain the ritual. I think no rail road should allow these people, to openly roam around the train/rail tracks where a running train is going. Unfortunately it's happening some place in our part of the world.

Stay safe and stay blessed.
Cheers.

Greetings.
I hope you are keeping safe in this pandemic. I enjoyed your video presentation thoroughly. It appears that you are a very skilled photographer. I enjoyed your still captures of both London and Seattle. In between the video clips were appropriately placed. It appears that you enjoyed being in London and as much as photographing in Seattle. As a photographers we captured the moment forever.
Every darkest night carries the fresh new morning ahead. So please do not loose hope, after this pandemic this world will heal and we all be able to lead a normal life again. I am very very certain on this.
Thanks for sharing your presentation.
Stay safe and stay blessed.
Cheers

Greetings. I hope you are keeping safe in this pandemic.
A lovely video presentation "Cedarburg Wisconsin".
I love the way opened the video. The transitions between the still images are smoothly done. I love the soft music you have used during this presentation. A serene video documentation and an appropriate music choice. I like the drone works on the river. That lovely waterfall were captured very nicely. The beginning of the water fall and its journey down below displayed a nice continuation of the presentation. The wooden bridge seems to me a very old and has some historic background, The passing shadow of the cars with "Covered wooden Bridge" also played a nice inclusion in the whole presentation.

Overall a nice little town.

Great work and nicely done.
Stay safe and stay blessed.
Cheers.
Kamal.
