4 Mar 20 Reply Thanks. After taking a second look I'm wondering if Auto White Balance would work by clicking on the ship. Mar 27th
4 Mar 20 Comment After reading other comments I picked up the fact that the ship was painted gray. I corrected the color in Photoshop using a No. 85 Filter at about 60%. I also added a graduated filter to darken the sky and a small amount in the foreground. I believe the ship stands out now and doesn't blend with the blues of the sky and water. Mar 23rd
4 Mar 20 Comment Perfect! It's difficult to improve upon perfection.
The colors are exact, it's sharp throughout. The only thing I may do is add a slight amount of subtle vignette to darken the edges. 		Mar 23rd
4 Mar 20 Comment I love the monochrome effect. You have great leading lines and high interest value. The grayscale is very smooth. I have two minor Nits. I'm tempted to slightly crop the right side to eliminate the bright windows of the building on the end of the street. I would also like to see someone standing under that lamp post for added interest. Mar 23rd
4 Mar 20 Comment Okay, I'm the odd ball in the group. I immediately saw this image as a vertical The exposure is right on and the image is tack sharp. I opened the image in Adobe camera RAW and clicked on the Auto setting. I added a small amount of vignetting and flipped the image horizontally. I also toned down an area just to the original left of the sand fall. Please understand that this is my interpretation. Mar 23rd
4 Mar 20 Comment I agree with the others about being an interesting building, however i wonder if there was a better composition by including a section of the right side. It's almost like a straight on portrait. I'd like to see some of the side. Mar 23rd

44 Mar 20 Comment A great shot of the interior of this historic aircraft. I agree with Rick about the reds. That's an easy fix. Excellent color and sharpness. Mar 23rd
44 Mar 20 Comment I love these old buildings. You low angle of view is just right. This is one of those images which you can get creative and do some funky things in creating a masterpiece. I darkened the sky and desaturated the clouds to remove the blue. I also pumped up the contrast, brightened the old cabin and added a graduated filter in the foreground and adjusted to color balance to warm it it. Just playing around. Mar 23rd
44 Mar 20 Comment Terrific composition. Everything is working for you. I like the people in the arch. It give a sense of scale. Great job! Mar 23rd
44 Mar 20 Comment Excellent shot.It's bright, colorful and tack sharp. That 24-105 in a super lens. The leaning pole didn't bother me since the edge of the adjacent building is straight. Rick, just for giggles, open the image in Adobe ACR and click on "Auto" It knocks the exposure down just a tad and other adjustments (Vibrance) make it POP. I also added a slight vignette to darken the edges. The changes are subtle. Mar 23rd
44 Mar 20 Comment I'm not sure of the Bulls Eye composition. I kinda prefer something off center. The overall colors appear to be well rendered. Something that could be corrected is the variance of lighting on the steps. Those in the foreground are bright while the treads in the back are subdued. Mar 23rd
44 Mar 20 Comment I must be thinking vertically today. I saw the composition of the Valentine sign and the Kitchen sign in a balanced composition. I would not mind seeing the people and the sidewalk to complete the story. Your process has worked well. Mar 23rd
