5 Apr 26 Reply Thanks Pete. That is helpful! Apr 9th
5 Apr 26 Reply Thanks Suzanne. That would work if you could turn off the edits and export the jpg. I will try it. Apr 9th
5 Apr 26 Comment This is such a striking bird and those eyes are hypnotic: thanks for giving us an image with strong eye contact. I agree with Suzanne it would be nice if the background was softer or less saturated. Apr 9th
5 Apr 26 Comment Love this Sophia and it took me a while to accept that this came from the original image. Especially her age: I think she looks very adult in the processed image and obviously child like in the original.

Have you tried to add blue into her eyes? I am not sure that works and her pupils are obscured.

5 Apr 26 Comment HI Pete, there is something really charming about this. Its simple and something we feel we have seen before but its so well done it does stand out. The bokeh is beautiful and the background seems to integrate the colours of the subjects very nicely. Apr 9th
5 Apr 26 Comment Hi Anna,this is a compelling study of the rocks although the sky is arguably more interesting, especially with the contrast in black and white you have applied. I think the shadows on the rock are costing interesting detail and Pete's version shows there is more there that could be developed. Apr 7th
5 Apr 26 Comment Hi Natalia, this is so evocative of spring and I do like the softness of the image due to the choice of a vintage lens.

The back ground is a little distracting so what about more cropping to remove the prominent branch just above the buds. Or you could clone it out. There is a distinct pink cast in the background and I think you could intensify this eg try increasing saturation in the reds.

5 Apr 26 Comment Hi Suzanne, this is great: really well conceptualized and executed. Congratulations on an intriguing image. I love the delicate placement of her bow hand. I like the tweaks that Richard and Pete have made. The only thing that caught my eye was the moire on her right leg which you could remove with a touch of blur. Apr 7th
5 Apr 26 Reply Thanks Suzanne Yes good call on the POV. That would be better Apr 3rd
5 Apr 26 Reply Hi Richard, thanks but I process from the raw files in ACR then into PS as 16 bit. But for here we have to make a JPG sized to 1400 pix so agree not much to go on. May be PSA could lift the file size Pete? 3820 is pretty common these days. Apr 2nd
