93 Jun 25 Comment Jay, I like what you've done with this and I am impressed with your technical skills. By making the fern in the middle lighter and therefore the primary interest point of your photo I think is is too low in the image and my eye competes with the clouds. I hope you don't mind that I cropped to eliminate the sky and make the lighter fern center; just a matter of my taste. Overall I like your use of lighting and the sharp focus throughout. Great shot.

93 Jun 25 Comment I've been over that bridge a few times and I never knew that Cincinnati could look that good. As with Dawn, I like the composition having the bridge bring my eye in from the left and to the city in the center of the frame. I think your timeing of using the twilight to keep the buildings lit so we can see details while projecting the outline of the skyline. I think the colors work well together and the reflections on the water are a plus. Nice job. Jun 24th
93 Jun 25 Comment I like the effect you have created with this photo. I think your composition is good and I like the way you combined the elements. For me the colors work well together and the focus / depth of field is good. I like the edited version a bit better as the sun isn't over exposed.

I'm not comfortable with the foreground and the slow shutter speed, but that is just my taste and I recognize that it is a key element of the photo.

93 Jun 25 Comment Another one of your great landscape shots. I like it. It encourages me to just throw a blanket on the ground, pull out a bottle of wine, some cheese and a bit of sausage from a picnic basket and soak in the scene for a while. I prefer photos that appeal to my emotions.

Technically I think you did a great job with the composition and the use of the colors. For me the white clouds against the blue of the sky are a big plus. The more intense combination of browns and greens of the trees and rocks create more interest for me. Again, I like it.

93 Jun 25 Comment I like your composition with the positioning of the house a bit to the left and looking out over the ocean at the rocks. I agree with Francois about getting more of the rocks in the image and less of the sky and hill side. For me there is a nice mood with the clouds and the sky on the hill but I'm wondering if there is a way you could reduce the haze in the foreground but leave it alone in the background. I tried it with my software (Darktable on Linux) - did it work? what do you think? Jun 19th
93 Jun 25 Reply Thanks for the input Darcy, Yes that center image is on pebbles (I took it on the beach infront of the Brookings harbor). I thought I could fit it into the center, but I will be reconsidering. Jun 7th
93 Jun 25 Reply Thank you Dawn, your comments are what I am looking for. I'm sure I can make some of your suggestions work, and for others I'll just have to go out on the beach and find a better shot - not that much of a problem. (note; for a PSA portfolio this would be the cover page accompanied with a full size shot of each photo).

Thanks a lot.
