19 Aug 22 Comment Hi Harriet,
Lovely image. The light and shadows accent the texture of the hydrangeas. The flowers are nicely composed in the frame.

19 Aug 22 Comment Hi Stan,
Nice shot. Well composed. Your perspective invites me into the image and holds my interest. Sharp details throughout. The texture and colors add impact. I like the red flower pot and other pots guiding my eye through the frame. Exceptional job.

Nice shot of your granddaughter. She stands out with her colorful wings against the green background.

19 Aug 22 Reply Hi Jay,
The lens does have limitations. Since the aperture needs to be manually set on the lens itself, my camera does not show the f stop. It does not show in Lightroom either. If I set my camera on aperture priority it will meter the scene. It definitely requires patience and practice. A work in progress for sure.

Great shot of this beautiful bird against the green background. Nice details on the bird and flower. I hope you caught a few images of butterflies too. It appears that the Goldfinch is posing for you. Well done.

24 Aug 22 Comment Stunning against the black background. I like the lensbaby effect. Coincidently, I recently bought a Lensbaby Sweet 50 lens and it does require patience and practice to learn. I am learning to love the results. Well done. Aug 2nd

63 Aug 22 Comment Hi Shaji,
Very interesting subject. Nicely focused against the blurred green background. I agree with the other members' suggestions to place the subject off center. Colored moths are unusual and beautiful. Great capture.

63 Aug 22 Comment Hi Neal,
Incredible sharpness throughout the image. You captured the finest details of the tiny insects and leaf. Thank you for allowing us to see their little world on the leaf. Well done once again.

63 Aug 22 Comment Hi Murphy,
Beautiful! I would frame this image and hang it proudly on my wall. The pink lilies are striking against the black background. Tack sharp and nicely composed. Nice DOF. It is very pleasing to my eye and holds my interest. Well done.

63 Aug 22 Comment Hi Priscilla,
Nicely done.The yellow flowers against the black background pop. You captured incredible sharp details with your phone. Well exposed. I especially like the details and dof in the smaller flower. One minor suggestion would be to remove the small partial green leaf on the left side of the smaller flower Perhaps the clone tool or the healing brush could be used.
I hope you won't mind, but I edited your image and tried to remove the leaf. I selected the part of the leaf to be removed, used the clone tool and healing tool. See my edit below. Thoughts?

63 Aug 22 Comment Hi Charlie,
Great shot. I'm impressed how you captured sharp details on the pistachios with ambient light. I need lots of light when I focus stack close up. Nicely composed with the colored pistachios. The textured glass with slight reflections of the nuts provided a nice background. On my computer the image seems to be a bit dark. I would prefer it to be brighter. Just my preference. It's a lovely image.

99 Aug 22 Reply Thanks Peter. I agree. Aug 4th
99 Aug 22 Reply Thank you Michael. I like your version. Aug 4th
99 Aug 22 Comment Hi Randy,
Nice job. Your creativity transformed the overexposed image into a keeper. I like the sketched look. It's different and adds interest. I agree with Linda that the image should be straightened. Well done.

99 Aug 22 Comment Hi Peter,
"In Hiding" is my choice for the title. You captured her eyes nicely with a stream of light. Her expression sets the mood. The shadows and lines created by the blinds adds to the mysterious story. Tack sharp throughout. You did a fantastic job creating an image of a spy "in hiding".

99 Aug 22 Comment Hi Gerard,
Lovely. Peace and solitude are emitted from the image. Nice details on the plant and stem against the ripples on the water. I like it.

99 Aug 22 Comment Hi Kathleen,
The image has impact. The reflection is very sharp, and the story holds my interest. I prefer Gerard's cropped version. Your choice of a sepia tone worked well. Nicely done.

99 Aug 22 Comment Hi Linda,
Incredible! You captured the action in the air and sharp details too. Well done. I know his family will be pleased with this portrait.

99 Aug 22 Reply Thank you, Linda. I do like your version with a clean background. However, my intent was to retain the shadows and texture in the background. Your suggestions are always welcome. Aug 3rd
99 Aug 22 Comment Hi Michael,
Magnificent composition. I love the shimmering glow throughout the scene. The dramatic sky, reflections in the water, and perfect light created a peaceful image. Very pleasing to my eye. I think the glisten adds impact. Well done.
