24 Aug 21 Reply Hi Steve!
I tried to do some processing to the original photo and the result is there. I tried to give more emphasis to the central part of the photo. The white petals were selected with the adjustment brush in LR. The Clarity and saturation were increased. A black vignette was added to the 'outside' part so as to make the central part stand-out.

24 Aug 21 Comment Hi Jim! I do not do portraits photography. But I have noticed that the flowers are too bright. So, I have decreased he brightness of that particular area. The green border at the top seems not so horizontal; I have done a little bit of straightening . Gaetan Aug 7th
24 Aug 21 Comment Hi Albert!
I understand that the birds were far away from you and that you did some cropping. However, I did one more cropping to focus on the centre egret and did some colour manipulations in Lightroom. The resulting photo is attached. Gaetan.

24 Aug 21 Comment Hi Sam! What about placing the man in the empty space to the left? Otherwise, good inspiration. Aug 6th
24 Aug 21 Reply Well done except for the pink coloration in the lower third of the photo. Aug 6th
24 Aug 21 Reply Thanks Laura for pinpointing these shortcomings. will try to do better next time! Aug 6th
24 Aug 21 Reply The background and bottom was almost green and the sun was hitting hard that day. When I darkened the outer part, some green colour surely has reflected on the underside of the flower. The flower is a lotus. Aug 6th
24 Aug 21 Reply Although I have been taking pictures since a long time, I now become aware that they were just snapshots. There are details that I often miss out. I imagine that learning is a life-long process.
Sure, these flowers are found n Mauritius at the Pamplemousses botanical garden and I appreciate the adjustments you made. They look better now! Thanks a lot!
