54 Mar 23 Reply Hi Kirsti, I really like your darkening it absolutely match the moonlight. I agree with the crop that you made cropping-off treetops, it gives the right proportion to the image. I congratulate for this final image, it looks fantastic. Mar 27th
54 Mar 23 Reply Hi Peggy I observe the progression of your image and I really enjoy the process and the discussion about the different alternatives. I certainly agree with the suggestions and I found that this latest version with a smaller planet and more glow in the highlights really enhance the image. You have done a very well ending up with a more mature and shocking image. Mar 27th
54 Mar 23 Reply Hi Christian, thanks for your comment. Brushes are not very complicate to create and it is good to have your own ones if you are using your images in a competition. Mar 21st
54 Mar 23 Reply Hi Alan, thanks very much for your suggestions and comments. All ideas are welcome and yours introduced a new version of this image. I really appreciate your comment. Mar 20th
54 Mar 23 Reply Hi Brad, thanks for your comment and your suggestion. I am happy that you like the image and following your ideas the moon is now less prominent Mar 15th
54 Mar 23 Reply Hi Aavo, the smoke is from the image that I attach. I isolated the smoke and created a brush then with the help of the transform tool I scaled and gave shape Mar 15th
54 Mar 23 Comment Hi Peggy, many thanks for your comment and suggestion I add some cloud to the image this is my version. Mar 15th
54 Mar 23 Reply Thanks Kirsty for your comment I really appreciated it. As you suggested I have hidden a little the moon behind the snow to rest importance in the scene. Mar 15th
54 Mar 23 Comment Hi Brad, you have created a fascinating image this month. the flower is so well integrated in the model that looks like part of her face and the different colours create the illusion that is an eye. A success image in my opinion, well done!

54 Mar 23 Comment Hi Alan, i like your image and the disequilibrium that you have created between the characters, shadows have created the dimensionality in this scene and the colour framed perfectly the main character. Well done! Mar 15th

54 Mar 23 Comment Hi Kirsty, you have created nice image to illustrate your story I like the blue tone in the trees and I agree with the idea of placing more lanterns. My only concern is the luminosity of the women clothes, I found it a little bright for the night scene I suggest you adjust it according with the light of the lantern darkening a bit the right site of the women Mar 15th
54 Mar 23 Comment Hi Aavo, you have created a very dynamic image placing this colourful dancing ladies. you full-filled well the scene with the players in the windows, the boy is a little out of scale.
I agree with the Peggy's suggestion about the colour in the skirts and I find that the musicians are more sharpen than the dancers, you might add a little blur to them. Well done!

54 Mar 23 Comment Hi Peggy, many thanks for your detailed explanation about how you had created this image.
The textures and the colours are fantastic and create a surreal background that match with your idea. I like more the version with the tilted planet. If I can suggest something maybe I will darken a little the planet I found that it has too much luminosity. Beautiful image a nice story. Well done!

65 Mar 23 Reply Hi Diana, I really appreciated your comment, I liked the flipped one too. Mar 15th
65 Mar 23 Reply Hi Fran, many thanks for your comment I agree that flipping the image look more balance. Mar 15th

65 Mar 23 Reply Hi Melanie, thanks for your comment I always appreciated it and made me happy to see that you like the image. Mar 15th
65 Mar 23 Reply Hi Dick, many thanks for your comment and suggestions, I really appreciated it. I hadn't thought about flipped the image before but now I agree that it is better viewed like this. Mar 15th
65 Mar 23 Comment Hi Russell, you have a good eye to find this little ladybug, it introduce a very nice colour contrast to the image.
I agree with the suggestion of the cropping and also I particularly don't like the black vignetting maybe you can feather it a little. Beautiful image.
Mar 15th
65 Mar 23 Comment Hi Jodi, I like your flower, the detail of the stamen and the pollen are fantastic due the conditions of the shooting.
Yellow flowers turn very well to black and white. You have done a very good job isolating the flower from the background. Well done
Mar 15th
65 Mar 23 Comment Hi Melanie, I also love this technique that creates a blurry colourful background framing the main subject. I like your composition but I agree with the suggestion of cropping, your colours work very well and the addiction of more pink complement the image. Beautiful image. Mar 15th
65 Mar 23 Comment Hi Diana, your Rose is gorgeous, love the colours and the details in the petals. If I can suggest something I would extend the background as I find it a little to tide creating the feeling of a Rose in a cage and as the other members suggested the white background is taking to much attention, you might change the colour or place a texture. Mar 15th
65 Mar 23 Comment Hi Fran, I love your Tulips. The image has beautiful tones and a sense of movement in your diagonal composition. I also like to take close up with the long lenses.
Your texture works very well with the image creating this romantic look. I agree with the cropping suggestions but I also like your composition that introduces more deep to the image.

65 Mar 23 Comment Beautiful image Dick, the sharpness and details of the flower are fantastic. I would love to get such a nice results in my photo-staking but I still need to refine my technique and practice more.

72 Mar 23 Comment Hi Isaac, you have captured the osprey in the moment when she is starting its flight but it still has one of its claws attached to the branch wit a nice wing display. The clean background and the colour made the perfect frame to this image that is pin sharp and tell us the history of the Osprey feeding behaviour.It is a very well captured image. Mar 27th
72 Mar 23 Comment Hi Adrian, what an amazing trip that you are doing! Your image is beautiful and well captured. I liked the Marie version It makes the bird more prominent agains the background. Looking forward to see more of your images from this trip! Mar 27th
72 Mar 23 Comment Hi Marie, You have capture this scene in a wonderful way, as you manage the highlights very well. I love your initial version more as it retains the texture of the ice, talking more about the environment of the shot.I have Been a spectator of this
behavior more than once, the seagull plays with its capture for a long time, picking up and dropping its fish repeatedly.

72 Mar 23 Comment Hi Barbara, I like the subtle colours of this image and the group the birds. I miss a little more interaction between them and I agree that it is not a point where your can rest but anyway I still liking it. I might suggest a more panoramic crop it will help to focus more in the birds. Mar 27th
72 Mar 23 Comment Hi Mary, you have presented a very creative image this month. The noise reduction makes the image less distracting and the mandala framed the bird presenting it in a fresh and different approach. Mar 27th
72 Mar 23 Reply Hi Adrian Thanks for your observations, I agree that lightening the bird improve the image. Mar 27th
72 Mar 23 Reply Hi Issac, I agree with you about lighting the bird. It really made it more prominent. You have also capture a very nice interaction between the two birds and the light is beautiful. Mar 27th
72 Mar 23 Reply Hi Barbara, thanks for your kind words. I also love the water droplets.
Mar 27th
72 Mar 23 Reply Hi Marie, I am glad you enjoyed the image, thanks for your kind words. Mar 27th
72 Mar 23 Reply Hi Bruce Thanks for your comment and the information about the app. I didn't know about it. I didn't know about this app and also didn't know that you can call the curiosity of these birds in this way. Mar 27th
72 Mar 23 Comment Hi Bruce, I feel a great admiration for this bird and for your image. You have captured the moment when it is about to fly and the detail of his claws and the expression of his face are two very important elements of this photo. You got a nice blurry background and a sharp eye. It is a stunning image. Mar 27th
