27	Jul 23	Reply	Like I said in the About the Image, I left it intentionally. Actually, I experiemented with adding the top and bottom in PS. Thanks for the feedback.	Jul 6th
27	Jul 23	Comment	Layering might be the answer. Take a shot of your cat and then stack it on top of the other background. In other words take out the fuzzy cat and put in the sharp one. Yellow cats are the bomb.	Jul 6th
27	Jul 23	Comment	I have a similar yellow 25 lb cat that insists on being in front of my computer screen. A large photo bomb. Is there any way to sharpen the cat?	Jul 5th
27	Jul 23	Comment	When my eye first caught this, I thought, ooooh an Escher staircase. So the sky didn't seem to be needed, and I can tell that you have straightened the buildings with Transform. So I played a bit with PS transform, content aware, tilting the sculpture first at a angle, cropping it, and then using content aware to fill in the blank spaces. Then I straightened it, and clone stamped the building back in. This is a 15 minute rendition, so the clone of the building is messy, but you end up with the sculpture and lines intact.	Jul 5th

35	Jul 23	Comment	What an interesting sculpture - it seems to be in motion, and that goes well with the sky - it almost looks like it is capturing the clouds in the top. Good eye!	Jul 5th
35	Jul 23	Comment	I like the grass reflections, and I am fascinated by the Soviet lens you used. I think overall the photo could be lightened a bit, and the top cropped down some. Your landscape is centered vertically, so the land is in the middle third. Cropping from the top and losing some of the cloud would move the land up a bit more.	Jul 5th
35	Jul 23	Comment	This is a great contrast between the clouds and the architecture of the building. The angles are aesthetically pleasing.	Jul 5th

79	Jul 23	Reply	We have a trip planned in the fall.	Jul 11th
79	Jul 23	Reply	Yes, this was evening.	Jul 10th
79	Jul 23	Reply	Thank you for your suggestions, and I think I will learn a lot from trying Peter's methodology. That is a lot of work! I'm not sure I like it; but somewhere in there is an improvement when I tweak it again. I'll give it a try. Palouse photos are always a challenge for me. I often see way too saturated results without any thought as to the reality of the landscape.	Jul 10th
79	Jul 23	Reply	I am shooting an Olympus OMD Mark I converted to 590 filter by Kolari. I highly recommend Derek Story's classes on IR.	Jul 8th
79	Jul 23	Comment	You should consider joining an IR dialogue group - I am in group 35. High drama scene, especially since that rock looks like a shark fin.	Jul 8th
79	Jul 23	Comment	No, I couldn't guess the original, but is that important? It seems like the original was a reflected tree. My goodness, Peter went a little nuts over the beautiful patterns. I know someone who sold the pattern from butterfly wings to a swimsuit company that made fabric from his designes. I'd love to see this in a fabric, maybe printed on canvas.	Jul 8th
79	Jul 23	Comment	The perspective is off if you look at the chimney. Try snapping a vertical line on the chimney or using Transform in PS. Good choice to convert to monochrome; and I like the dramatic sky, although you could crop a bit from the top if there is room after using transform.	Jul 8th
79	Jul 23	Comment	Great discussion. No one has identified the flower - a hisbicus perhaps? Good ideas. I would prefer a flower in focus at some point, and the blur is too distracting.	Jul 8th
79	Jul 23	Comment	How interesting, I thought they were made of glass! They are almost transparent in places. Very creative choices!	Jul 8th
79	Jul 23	Comment	Congrats on your equipment. My husband and I are in a macro group and one of our members discovered that the new Canon cameras do focus stacking; so he purchased one. Then he discovered that he had to buy a Canon lens since the Tamron which used to be compatible with his camera didn't work for focus stacking. You have a beautiful image here, and I appreciate the monochrome with the contrasting bee. I am wondering if there is a white vignette added? It seems a little hazy in the corners; and noting that, I'm thinking it was a wise choice to zoom in.	Jul 8th
