Thanks for the kind words, Lance. I will take another look in light of your suggestion about the rocks. |

Nice subject, Jim. I love IR for monochrome and it worked well here. I agree with Jim about the too-tight composition, but I understand your limitations. I've been trying to remember to make 2-3 image panos when I'm dealing with situations like this, especially with my IR camera. It's helped quite a bit. |

Terrific subject. I think I agree with Stephan about preserving the original composition. I took it into ACR and used the geometry tools to fix the the keystoning effect. I like the way the dock and the building on the left frames the boat and water. The steps don't bother me as much. |

Nicely seen. I'm always drawn to "what is it?" type images where I have to drop any assumptions about what the thing is that I'm looking at. I think your image is successful to a large degree. I don't know if the out of camera original was more loosely cropped, but I do wish the top of the shadow wasn't so close to the edge. I also would have preferred that the bricks were either parallel to the top and bottom edges or at a more pronounced angle. |

Great subject for black and white. Lots of interesting texture between the rocks, the buildings, and the sky. I do feel like the wonderful light splashing on the monastery loses something in your processing. You might want to consider dodging a bit just below the monastery on the left. |

I like original 2 as a terrific documentary photo of the experience. I like your monochromatic treatment as fine art (if that's not too pretentious to say). It has a lot more depth and detail when you take away the distraction of color. I do agree with Henry's darkening of the upper wall area. |

Thanks, Chuck. So it would seem. |

This is outstanding, Chuck. I love the simplicity of the composition and the stark contrast between the white flowers and the dark background. I suspect IR made accentuated the white in the flowers. |
