20 Jun 22 Comment Hi Shirley,
I enjoyed your image which makes a very strong still life. If it were mine, I think I would lessen the opacity of the background texture slightly so it would not compete as much with the texture on the pears. I also agree with Sam as to the exterior red stroke. But on the whole, nice image.		 Jun 14th
20 Jun 22 Comment Hi Bob,
I also thought I would try my hand at your image. Having lived in Arizona for a long time, I know what the overwhelming heat and shortage of water is doing to the forests. I took your image into the camera raw filter and increased the temp, decreased the whites and highlights, decreased the clarity and dehaze significantly to give the sky the hazy look that is so prevalent during the hot summers,then using the color mixer decreased the orange yellow and green to give the trees that burnt look. I overdid it on the vignetting (oops).
I think the concept you had for telling your story was a very good one and needs to be told. I also liked the second one as a very strong abstract. 		Jun 14th

20 Jun 22 Comment Hi Sam,
I love this image. First I could spend all day just photographing textures off the one wall on the left. The colors are cool yet vibrant and beautify set off with the two ladies in orange. I agree with Bob about the wires in the sky, however they do add character and give a sense of age of the area. Looking at the vertical lines in the image, it looks pretty straight to me, but with the leading lines (which are great) it could be off {?}. Great job!		 Jun 14th
20 Jun 22 Comment Hi Ham,
Looks like a beautiful area to photograph in. I have to say that I too like the original image better. I think, because of the lack of true black or true white is the reason for the flat feeling.
