14 Nov 22 Comment Hi Xiao,
Greetings my friend.
What a professional post processing to recover the subject with details from the original. You have handled the loud lights from the subject and the background very well. I loved the composition. The gentle breeze on the models hair and the wave of the waters added to the scene. Well done and thank you for sharing.
Stay safe as always.
Cheers.
Kamal.

Greetings my friend. You have certainly achieved what you wanted to produce. Now thats called a mammoth work load for producing this image. I really appreciate the way you have handled the extra support irons and added the steams on the original. The vignette just added to the scene. Well done and nicely presented. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers.
Kamal.

14 Nov 22 Comment Hi Darcy,
Greetings.
A nice image of poppies you have processed for this edition.
When it comes to floral photography, I always prefer close shots with limited subjects. I also prefer to get in to details of the flower as they are focused in that composition.
I am sharing sample of my poppy image I used in DDG 80.Hope it will explain you my point of view.
Best regards.
Kamal.

Greetings my friend.
Very creative composition by the book. The color and lights complementing each other. It is wonderful to see the vibrant fall colors against the cloud and sky. The title and the content in the image are very warm and embracing. Other than few strays as mentioned by Karen a strong image, well placed and well presented. Loved it. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers.

Greetings my friend.
Thank you for your suggestions and word of appreciations on my image. Yes you are correct, they really felt like a synchronized swimming. I will try to recover some of the details though. And yes, They are weeds floating on the waters, some kind of vegetation's. Thanks again and stay blessed as always.
Cheers.

Greetings my friend. The birds were sitting on that edge of the nets very symmetrically until I have flown overhead and they felt scared and flown away for couple of time. But every time they flown away they returned on that nets for meals. The suggestions of reducing the shadow is noted and surely I will consider the image a BW conversion in future.
Thanks for your feedback.
Stay safe and stay blessed as always.
Cheers.

Greetings my friend. Hope everything is okay with you. Yes the abstract geometric pattern on the river truly made me drawn to the scene. The colors you have noticed were small weeds which were floating between the boats which also added to the scene. Loved the composition, while seen live. Thank you for your feedback.
Stay safe and stay blessed as always.
Cheers.

Greetings my friend.
Thank you for your kind appreciation. I darkened the back ground as attached as you have suggested. TBH I did not use any filter, other than a normal filter to capture the poppy. It was soft morning lights on the winter chill through a layer of fogs in the environment. I darkened the background a bit to make the poppy stands out.
Thank you for your comment and suggestions.
Kindest regards.

80 Nov 22 Comment Hi Rich,
Greetings & Welcome to our group. Apology for delay comment as I was busy for health issue. However, an well balanced image. What Nadia is mentioning about ying/yang is very correct. It's like Hard and soft style of the Karate. The white part being the soft and dark part being the hard part of this balanced way expressed nicely. I love the way you have post processed the image. No more changes, it's perfect.
Thank you for sharing.
Cheers.

80 Nov 22 Comment Hi Kathryn,
Greetings Dear.
Definitely a nice capture with all these details on the flying Bee (Surely a difficult job)and the part of flower. I like the way Rich James has edited the image; which works really well.
But I tried a bit tweaks and turns on the image, to see how this turn out. Hope you like it.
Thanks & regards.
Kamal.

80 Nov 22 Comment Hi Doug,
Greetings my friend.
Apologies for delay comment due to health issue. Now much better. Your November edition is just "WoW"!!! A whole new perception to flower photography. Loved the close up and composition. Well done. But as I always try to look at things from a different angle, I wanted to try your image in BW version. This is what I could make of it. Hope you like it.
Thank you for sharing.
Kindest regards.
Kamal.

80 Nov 22 Comment Hi Nadia,
Greetings my friend.
Apologies for delay comment due to personal health issue.
I noticed your edition this month. I must say, this is a lovely image, with the carefully thought caption and after the processing you have done on the image.
Even though I wanted to try this image in a different note- a BW version. I played the image in CS6 to make a conversion. This is the out come. Hope you like it.
Stay safe as always.
Cheers.

Greetings dear.

A lovely edition this month. My apologies for delay comment due to personal issue. I like the way you have edited from the original. The light and color is complementing to each other. Thought of giving a new perspective on your image. I turned this one in to Black and white. See how this appeared to you.

Stay safe as always.
Best regards.

80 Nov 22 Comment Hi Bob,
Greetings my friend.
Apologies for delay comment due to personal and family health and other issues. Now everything coming in order.
Your image appears to have more of abstract form after the post processing. The color is very loud though, but the effort truly gave a different perception. It has a painting feel at the first appearance. Thank you for sharing with us.
Stay safe as always.
Cheers.
Kamal.
