DAMON,
YOU KNOW I ALSO HAVE A CLOSE UP GROUP #63 AND I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THIS IMAGE IN THAT GROUP ALSO...NICELY DONE..
LOVE THE FACT THAT YOU USED THE DOF THAT YOU CHOSE, NOT DOING ALL THAT STACKING... AND LETTING THE COMPOSITION SPEAK FOR ITSELF...YOU HAVE THE LADY BUG COMING RIGHT A US..GREAT ANGLE ON THE STEM...FINE DEAILS ON THE HAIRS OF THE PLANT AND EXCELLENT FOCUS ON THE LADY BUG HERSELF...
ONE LITTLE NIC PIK MAYBE REMOVE THE LITTLE WHITE SPOTS ON HER BACK...
THANKS FOR A GREAT IMAGE

JANE,
VERY DYNAMIC CRASHING WAVE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY LIKE THAT AROUND ME, (BUT OUT OF THE QUESTION IN SOUTHERN FLORIDA PLENTY OF WAVES JUST NO ROCKS).
I LIKE THIS AS THE B/W WORKS WELL. YOUR SETTINGS CAPTURED THE BURST OF THE WAVE AND THE EXPOSURE JUST RIGHT.
WELL L YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY ...BUT...
I DID SEE A FEW THINGS I WOULD HAVE CHANGED IN PROCESSING.
1. CLEAN UP THE BLACK SPOTS IN THE SKY AROUND THE WAVE.
2. IN LR ADJUSTMENT PANEL I WOULD LOOK AT TONING DOWN THE SKY AND THE WATER THUS PROVIDING MORE CONTRAST BETWEEN THEM AND THE WAVE.
3. I DID DO A FLIP OF THIS IMAGE AND ITS REALLY CLOSE BUT IN MY OPINION IT HELPS MY EYE SEE THE WAVE MORE THAT THE ROCKS, THAT DOMINATE THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE IMAGE ANAD AS OUR EYE GOES TO THE RIGHT IT MAKES THE WAVE POP AND LOOKS LIKE YOUR GOING TO GET SPLASHED BY THE WAVE.
I SUBMITTED THE TWO VERSIONS WITH MORE CONTRAST AND FLIPPED, WHAT DO YOU THINK??
BUT ALL IN ALL A GREAT CAPTURE OF THE FORCES OF NATURE. |

ALANE,
FIRST OFF, THE RESERVE IS IT THE NATIONAL AVIARY OUT IN THE COUNTRY OR THE RESERVE AT THE CRUISE SHIP DOCKS?
I ENT TO THE NATIONAL AVAIRY EXPECTING TO SEE SOME EXOTIC SPECIES, MOSTLY THEY WERE EXOTIC TO THEM, BUT LIVE I MY BACKYARD IN FLORIDA, LESSON LEARNED.
PERHAPS YOU LEARNED A LESSON ALSO, HAVE BACK UP BATTERIES, I SAY THAT IN PURALS, IM ON A TRIP RIGHT NOW AND HAVE THREE CAMERAS AND TEN BATTERIES AND TWO CHARGERS,I GOT CAUGHT WITH DEAD BATTERIES BEFORE TOO...
BUT WHO NEEDS A CAMERA WHEN THEY HAVE A PHONE!!!!
YOUR IMAGE IS NICE AND SHARP, COLORS ARE WELL HANDLED,
A LITTLE MORE EXPOSURE ON THE FACE ESPECIALLY THE EYE(ALWAYS THE EYE) ITS SHARP BUT NOT VERY BRIGHT TO ME.
THE PROCESSING HAS GIVEN A GLOW AROUND THE MACAW'S HEAD, AND AN UNNATURAL LOOK TO THE BACKGROUND.
MIGHT ADD A LITTLE ROOM ON TOP, THE HEAD IS CROWDING THE TOP
BUT A NICE BAILOUT SHOT

WELL CHARLES,
WELCOME TO THE GROUP, AND YOU HAVE STARTED OUT WITH A VERY NICE IMAGE RIGHT OUT OF THE GATE...
YOU'VE HANDLED YOUR CHALLENGE VERY WELL, ENDED UP WITH A TACK SHARP IMAGE AND FROM YOUR UNEDITED IMAGE YOU HAD PLENTY TO WORK ON.
YOUR CREATED SURFACE AND BACKGROUND ARE COMPLIMENTARY TO ONE ANOTHER AND WORK TOGETHER WELL
I DON'T STACK AND I'M UNFAMILAR TO "ZERENE STACKER" MAYBE A LITTLE INFO ON IT FOR ME OR ANYONE ELSE THAT DOESN'T KNOW IT, IR MAYBE I'M THE ONLY ONE. |

NEAL,
I LIKE THAT YOU HAVE THIS SPIDER IN A NATURAL ENVIROMENT.
YOU DO MASTER THE MACRO IMAGES IN THIS GROUP.
ALLWAYS LIKE SEEING WHAT YOU COME UP WITH.
LIKE THE STROKE THAT YOU HAVE USED HERE,WORKS TO HIGHLIGHT YOUR LITTLE FELLA.
AS FAR AS THE COLOR DODGING YOU DID IS THAT WHAT GIVES IT HALO EFFECT OR GLOW AROUND THE LEGS?
NICELY DONE. |
