Thanks for your comments everyone and yes I totally agree I should have used a larger DOF. I have a bad habit of using a narrow DOF and a low ISO with macro. I am trying to train myself not to.
I do have a Speedlight but am guilty of not utilizing it very much. I will get it out and give it a go.
I use an Olympus E-M1 MK11 and have just started using the focus stacking and bracketing features. They help to get everything sharp too. |

Hi Barbara,
You have handle the conversion to monochrome very well. The contrast and tones are spot on. I find the cars a bit distracting, especially when you said you took the image for the dramatic sky. I actually like the cropped version better.
A very well captured image. I'm glad to see someone else takes their camera to the shops with them.:) |

Hi Randy,
You have captured the monkeys emotion well. Taking an image through glass and at a zoo is such a big challenge to get the sharpness of the subject and no noise. I also use Topaz Denoise and would be lost without it. Good image and suits monochrome too.

Hi Michael,
You have captured the tree on the vertical cliff perfectly. I like you orientation better, I think the diagonal of the cliff this way is pleasing to the eye and acts as a leading line down to the tree. The old reading from left to right theory again. I think the grain is a bit distracting and without it the tree and your story would stand out a lot more. I agree with Gerard that the image is better with the tree on the third. Great image |

Hi Linda,
I agree with everyone, your editing of this image is flawless. I do like the sky replacement. But I have to agree with Gerard on this one. I am always astounded at how Lightroom and Photoshop can bring out details in what appears a flat image. I also am fond of the minimalist approach to photography. The details in the sand and the dark pier make the image and not the sky. |

Hi Peter,
I do agree that this image is better in monochrome rather than colour. I like Linda's suggestions, but can't make my mind up which orientation I like best. I think the man looking out left or right are both ok compositions. I don't know about the same man being in the tv, but I do think its not so distracting and blends in better with the image. It is a very well taken image, nice and sharp and the tonal range is great. Theres not much else to say, everyone has said it.

Hi Gerard,
Such a well executed composite. Tack shape where it needs to be and your blending is seamless. I too thought they were two robots at first glance and they do look like they are having a conversation. I like the background but maybe just slide the opacity down just slightly so it isn't so dominant in the image, just a suggestion. Well done! |
