26 Apr 24 Comment Normally I am in favor of foreground material like these rocks to add dimension to a landscape. In this case, if you could have stepped slightly to the left, the rocks would have been to the side of the path. But now they act as a blocker to the wonderful leading line you have. I would suggest using a content aware scale on the rocks, and moving them to the right, and then clone or fill the original rocks with path material. I tried that, along with a very slight increase in contrast, and adding a little more "drama" to the sky.I also toned down the brighter edge of the foreground rocks. See what you think. Apr 8th
26 Apr 24 Reply Nice improvement. On a second look, how about cloning out the tiny bright building on the right edge that caught my eye? Apr 3rd
26 Apr 24 Comment I recognize that area; very dramatic scenery. I think you caught the impact of the scene very well. Tones are great, and the sky is very interesting. Apr 1st
26 Apr 24 Comment Nicely done. Great contrast/impact. I don't see anything to add. Apr 1st
26 Apr 24 Comment I like both versions, but I really prefer the B&W. It emphasizes the graphics and tones much better. I think you might be able to push it slightly more with a slight S curve approach in curves, or adjusting the whites and blacks. Apr 1st
26 Apr 24 Comment I like the approach of a vertical pano, as we do not see them very often. The modern light brackets do get in the way somewhat, and I wonder if cropping would help to de-emphasize their effect? Since I tried that to see how it looked, I also darkened the lighter edge of the front column to keep the eye focused inward.
Without cropping, removing at least the top bracket might help. I could not try that as the new remove tool does not work well on a low res image.

26 Apr 24 Comment I like the concept. I am not sure about the choice of color, however, as it does not seem to fit.I keep wondering if less of the effect might be better; the image has a lot going on, and makes it difficult to find an area for focus.. Perhaps adding local contrast to the main tree subject? Apr 1st
