Stuart, I cannot comment on technical details, still learning. But I really like the result in your answer to Tom, sharper and the crop allow the eye to focus more on the colors and shapes. I have a question on the background, I wonder whether it would be better a bit blurred, the blue and the texture distracted my eye. |

Hi Carol, I am really drawn by your image - the stem is so crisp and the colors beautiful. The Chiaroscuro works for me - I had never heard of it applied to photography. Thanks to you and Stuart for the learning. |

Great image - I love the color combination and the clarity of the drops. I felt I could almost touch the morning dew drops.. You had a very good result even if handheld. I agree with Stuart that it was challenging to get a crisper shot of the upper close petal. |

Keith, I think it is a great capture given the little time you had - and an even better learning opportunity for next time! Also for me... I think I would go with the option of greater depth of field and get more in focus. |

Tom, I really like your image. The colors are great and I like the abstraction you get by getting closer. It really conveys a sense of movement towards the center. |

Very interesting! Amazing what you can see of everyday things with a macro lens - really opens new horizons. Worth shooting it again to try to get more of the edges in focus. |

Thanks Robert - I took quite e few pictures so I will check if I have other perspectives that better show what I was trying to convey. |

Hi Ye, looking at this image I thought of contrasts... between the creativity of nature with different shapes of trees and clouds, and the uniformity of the human constructions. And the contrast of bright blue and green, with the grey of the buildings. In my case I was fine with a lack of a focal point as my eyes went to the overall scene. I agree would have been nice to see a more clear reflection of the buildings in the water, and maybe crop a bit the sky. |

Hi Bob, I also love lighthouses - so great idea. I might get inspired to use some of my own! Thanks for opening up this discussion on AI - it is very interesting and I learn a lot from you and those that commented. I also learn from the conversations on sky replacement - I see how having the right sky can really enhance an image, although I am still struggling with replacing the ones I have taken. I think your new sky fits well in this case, but is a bit too intense to my eye. Thanks again for pushing me to learn more about new ways of enhancing images. |

Hi Viren, beautiful capture and the B&W works very well. Nothing to add to others' great comments. It is interesting what you say on contrast - I am learning B&W and it is a big challenge for me getting it right. |

Hi Dan, I really like your processing - you rendered the old farmhouse quite interesting. I agree with Bob's crop. And thanks for sharing the possibilities of using NIK. |

Hi Robert, this is an interesting shot - looking at it at first made me think of a Pictorialist image. I agree that the light is beautiful and I like the subtle approach to colors. |

Hi Haru, this image gives me a sense of mystery, of exploring uncharted territory. In my case, my eye is caught by the whole, not necessarily one specific center of attention. I really am drawn by the orange flowers and the bright green of the tree on the right. As Dan says - each person will react differently. I do like what Bob did with the right frame as it intensifies the colors but looses a bit of the overall mystery feeling.

Thanks Haru, I will see if I can improve this by having less sky and more of the sea and white town. |

Thank Dan for your comments. Yep - it is extremely hard to convey in an image all that you see and feel. I had a sense that this would not work.... as there are too many things going on and the main one can escape the viewer. |
