87 Jul 21 Reply Thank you, Bev. I appreciate it. Jul 29th
87 Jul 21 Reply Bev, it is very nice. Thank you. I want to learn more about all the masking and editing. Jul 29th
87 Jul 21 Comment I love the colors--the wings do pop against the color of the ocean. Beautiful! Jul 15th
87 Jul 21 Comment Thank you, Jennifer. I do use LR, but I'm a real novice. I will work on using the sliders, and check out results. Jul 13th

87 Jul 21 Reply I also had not made the connection between the "A" bomb and the shadow! Great observation! Jul 5th
87 Jul 21 Reply Lance, The camera was not set on auto ISO, at least I do not think it was. I had been shooting through the window of the house, which was dark, and I needed the higher ISO-the 4.0n lens aperture is maximum. As we were walking away, I noticed the shadow of the tree, and, because we were in a hurry (my husband and dog were waiting), I went with what I had. I really had not noticed the chair, but I would most likely not have moved it, as I am hesitant to move things in these types of locations. I need to be more aware of these issues moving forward, and I do appreciate the constructive criticism. I am learning a lot. Jul 5th
87 Jul 21 Comment Interesting image and interesting perspective. I also wondered about the blue tint to the buildings, and the palm fronds are almost backlit. I have had some recent images that all seem to have that bluish tint, but the sky was hazy, and I attributed it to that in my images. Your sky appears to be crystal clear. Jul 3rd
87 Jul 21 Comment Everything in the foreground is very sharp, and the iridescence in the wings is beautiful. His eye is almost spooky, reminding me of Igor in the Frankenstein movies! Beautiful capture. Jul 3rd
87 Jul 21 Comment I love this. You always think about a working lighthouse as monochromatic with the light being the focal point, which you have done here. I would love to know how to do the technique you used, as well as what Chan suggested about extending the glow of the light. Jul 3rd
87 Jul 21 Reply Thank you for that information as well. I have that same plan, but I didn't realize about the video tutorials. Thank you.

87 Jul 21 Comment I LOVE this! And I did also figure it out! Jul 3rd
87 Jul 21 Comment This is beautiful. I am going to try to learn more from all of you on editing and composition. I would NEVER have thought to add orange to the image, but it really makes it!

87 Jul 21 Comment Chan, Thank you for your comments. No, I didn't have a lot of choices about the time for the pictures, and I was using that particular image because of the "shadow" round from last month. I was really attracted to the shadows of the tree, but I also think I should crop out the blown out parts of the foreground, or do something else with it. I do use LRC, but I am not proficient. I have limited skills with it--still "much to learn, Grasshopper!" Jul 3rd
