4 Sep 23 Comment Beautiful, simple composition. I can't add anything to improve it. Well done!! Sep 23rd
4 Sep 23 Comment I find your composition interesting. I'm not sold on the merger of the balcony and the top of the image. As you well know me, I do like to play with images. I cropped out the balcony, increased the contrast, re-set the white point and added an edge vignette for added impact. Sep 23rd
4 Sep 23 Comment I like your composition in framing the bird in the brickwork. I would like to see the brick and mortar toned down. I found the brightness to be distracting. Sep 23rd
4 Sep 23 Comment A very good composition. The choice of black and white was a good one. I felt that there was detail missing in those beautiful puffy clouds. I took the liberty of opening the color image in NIK Silver Efx and trying various black and white presets. I also cropped the sky and foreground. Using the masking features in Photoshop I selected the ship and tweaked slightly the brightness and contrast. I hope you like the changes. Sep 23rd
4 Sep 23 Comment A nice remembrance of this magnificent creature. You did an outstanding job in this presentation. Sep 23rd
4 Sep 23 Comment Outstand view. Great reflections and lots of impact. I would like to see a better exposure of the background. It appears somewhat washed out. Sep 23rd
4 Sep 23 Reply I'd be happy to show you the color version. Sep 9th
4 Sep 23 Reply Hi Gary, I noticed that left side after I saw it posted. I have the NIK suite and it has a terrific feature where you can adjust two non parallel vertical lines. It works better than Photoshop. Sep 9th
4 Sep 23 Comment I should have noted that there are two levels, 2nd and 3rd, that allow different vantage points for visitors and photographers. Yes, TV was boring Sunday night. All reruns. Sep 6th

4 Sep 23 Reply After all these years I may have found my niche in architectural photography. While landscapes are fun, architecture is my passion. In my working life I was an architectural designer and I enjoyed all types of architecture. I have found that my iPhone helps seeing compositions. I recall on incident in 2013 shooting the Somesville bridge in Maine. I had put my camera away after shooting what I thought was every composition only to see another view with my iPhone. That prompted me to get the camera and tripod out and shoot what would become the best pictures of the bridge. Sep 5th

44 Sep 23 Reply Thanks. Good comments. I was more concerned about the rock in the foreground and overlooked the red/orage barricades. Sep 25th
