29 Jul 22 Comment 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.

29 Jul 22 Comment 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....

29 Jul 22 Comment 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.

29 Jul 22 Comment 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!

29 Jul 22 Reply 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...
