Hi Bob,
It's a lovely (almost) still life. I have had to resort to looking for pretty flowers at a florist to work with. (Wife doesn't garden.)
Sounds like Topaz has really gotten you focused on converting the simple routine to an interpretation that you and others really like. |

Gunter,
That's a great image...I'd like to see a simple photo of the building in order to try to grasp how you envisioned the final result from a straight lines and right angles building. Wait, I just googled it...the building is curved (a beautiful building), but I still can't figure out how you approached the shot. Maybe I'm thinking to hard abut an abstract that need not be analyzed.... |

Hi Madeline,
I sure appreciate the creative perspective. I wonder how those rocks got into the center of the log? Maybe the log was washed down in a summer flood event, and the rocks came along with a later deluge.
Back on point, I agree with the observation that the saturation is a bit severe. The pine needles have a different hue, and the blue may be a bit overly luminous (though it may have been wet.) I myself actually have to suppress the urge to saturate everything, so I'm not so much one to talk. |

Hi Gunther,
I totally agree with all your comments and your edit. The blue was altered by my overwrought processing. Your cropping to focus on the waves really improves the image. Thank You! |

Hi Bob,
Your right about the haze and the de-haze. I think I max'ed it out.
I do love the dehaze effect. Wish I knew how it works. It's kind of like contrast, exposure, others, all in one. Seems sort of magical. Sometimes, when viewing misty scenery in the real world, I find myself wishing for a dehaze slider in my brain... |
