Jim I really like your changes. With the trees added to photo the clouds in the background actually look like clouds. Also the placement of the trees automatically drew my eyes in the direction of the comet. I was surprised at the impact this change had. |

John I like the cropping you did to really focus the viewer's eyes on the bees on the flower and not letting them get distracted by the background. Also your choice of f16 was spot on. The details in the bees and flowers is amazing. |

Laura I like how you brought out the vibrant colors and details of the flowers. Flowers are one of my favorite subjects to shot and I know how hard it can be sometimes to get everything to line up. I do find the darker purplish partial flower in the bottom left corner distracting and recommend cropping the left side of the photo, see attached edited photo example. I also noticed that the second main flower from the left is slightly out of focus. Which I also find distracting as I consider all the four forward flowers in the photo your subject. |

Sam great job combing the three photos to create a stunningly unique picture. I like how you used the dirt road to draw the user to your subjects. I understand why you made the crosswalk lighter as it should be on a dirt road. However I also did not notice the crosswalk in the photo until I looked at the three original photos. Maybe just brighten the strips slightly but not too much so you do not lose the dirt road feel. |

Great photo of the comet NEOWISE. I missed getting a picture here in south Texas as there was cloud cover at night. Maybe next time it comes around I can get a picture. :)
The clouds are a little distracting as the viewer's eyes are drawn to this large area (one-third of the photo) instead of lingering on the beauty of the NEOWISE comet and the significance that it will not return for another 6,800 years. |

Laura thanks for the additional ideas. I try lighting the bison in LR using the adjustment brush but I did not like the way it looked. Could be that I am a newbie at LR. Instead I adjusted the highlights, shadows and blacks as mentioned by Jim. |

Jim thanks for the great feedback. I like what you did to lighten up the bison. Adjusting the blacks is something I had not considered before. Here is my attempt at these changes. Also I am not sure what you mean regarding the picture format ratios? I submitted the photo in a 4:3 ratio. |

Larry thanks for the great feedback. Regarding the centering of the bison I was more focused on the rule of thirds and centered the face there and did not realize that I had centered the whole bison in the photo. My bad! The bison definitely looks visually more interesting off-centered. |
