4 Jun 20 Comment Awesome lighting conditions. A very dramatic image. If I were to do anything, I might crop some off the left side. Jun 6th
4 Jun 20 Comment Perfection. What can I say? Exposure, you nailed it. Color and sharpness, you nailed it too. Not only a Wall Hanger but a medal winner too. Jun 6th
4 Jun 20 Comment I think you did a wonderful job with the NIK products interpreting your vision. I thought of two adjustments. Crop some of the dull sky out of the picture to improve composition and add an 85 Warming Filter at about 33% Jun 6th
4 Jun 20 Comment I'm glad you're stepping out. A very interesting architectural study. The exposure and white balance is perfect. Have ever considered creating a vertical panorama to include the upper stair? I would like to see more of the beginning of that stair. However, overall it's a great shot. Jun 6th
4 Jun 20 Comment Terrific composition. The placement of the crosses at the grave sites compliment the old church. The flat lighting and grey sky adds to the impact. The only item I would find fault with is the noise in the sky. NIK Define or Tpoaz AI Clear does a wonderful job of cleaning up the skies. Jun 6th
4 Jun 20 Comment Very good details and the composition is acceptable. The HDR blend looks very good.Aurora software does a great job. Jun 6th

44 Jun 20 Reply Hi Rick,
I went back to the original files and tried to recreate the above image. I did find additional settings in Aurora 2019 to reduce or eliminate color aberration/fringing. I also tried Photoshop HDR and it seemed to do a slightly better job.

It's something that I can watch out for in the future. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.		 Jun 15th
44 Jun 20 Comment A good rendition of a snow scene.You removed enough of the blue but left just a bit to give it a cold appearance. I would be tempted to cut about 25% off of the foreground to improve the composition and bringing the horizon line down. Jun 6th
44 Jun 20 Comment You HDR process worked well for this image. What I'm having a problem with is you angle of view and composition. Anything beyond the gate is not supporting the image. I took the liberty of a severe crop and I pulled back the Clarity to soften the green grass. Jun 6th
44 Jun 20 Comment You did a great job on this one. Your process did wonders. I have some from the same area and they didn't turn out this good.The composition is great. Without the two people there it wouldn't have the impact ans sense of scale. Jun 6th
44 Jun 20 Comment A simple composition yet effective. The little splash of color does the trick of grabbing your attention. Jun 6th
