45 Dec 20 Reply I agree. However, moving to the right, I would have lost the trunk shadow coming down the middle of the image, and I wouldn't be able to get the sunstar effect. I'll probably try it again in the spring when there are cascading blooms. Dec 19th
45 Dec 20 Reply I used Photoshop's spot healing brush to eliminate the fence. A little trick when using the spot healing brush: First make the brush a little wider than the fence wire. If you click on the first spot, then hold down the Shift key while you move the cursor to the end of a straight line and click on the end spot, then the tool will remove the fence for the entire straight line.

45 Dec 20 Reply Hi, Don. I tried your suggested edit, and, as a result, there are less distracting elements in it. I also cropped out the yellow tree on the left because the image didn't look balanced. It's not bad, but, it is no longer a panorama. It looks like my other images of this tree. Dec 2nd
45 Dec 20 Comment Another very moody night scene especially with the hint of fog in the harbor. I like the sunstars of the bright lights. I don't know whether the light trails of the ferry work very well. It might have better to use a higher ISO to stop the ferry even though it would have created more digital noise. It's rather easy to eliminate noise in images these days. Dec 2nd
45 Dec 20 Comment An excellent image of a time long, long ago. I like the small trees growing around the church blocking the doorways suggesting this church has been abandoned for quite some time. Your post processing also bought out the moody and somewhat eerie feeling very nicely. I can't offer any suggestions that might improve it. it's just perfect! Dec 2nd
45 Dec 20 Comment You captured a beautiful moment with the mother tiger cleaning her cub. Your post processing to bring out the warm colors is excellent. You could have cloned out the chain-link fence more thoroughly. And, when lightening the cub's face, it would have been better to feather the edges. I edited your image with these changes and also cropped it a little to focus primarily on the mother-to-cub interaction, and I cloned out some of the distracting grasses. A lovely shot! Dec 2nd
45 Dec 20 Comment Interesting landscape image captured at the right time for that morning glow. However, the houses in the background detract from the mood of the natural landscape. And, the cloudless sky doesn't help either. If you shot this peak from the other side, it might make a better landscape image. Maybe try cropping the image to a square format to eliminate the houses? Dec 2nd
45 Dec 20 Comment Excellent capture! Caught him in mid-jump. Eye is in focus with good catch light, and he's looking in the right direction. Nice bokeh, too! Dec 2nd
45 Dec 20 Comment Lovely shot! The green and magenta colors complement each other very well. The bee is in sharp focus although it would have been nice if he turned around for you. He must have been having a bad day. I wonder if the image would look cleaner if you cloned out the two flower tips on the bottom? Dec 2nd
