Hi Kieu-Hanh,
Thank you for the comments. I hadn't noticed the mask blendin ginto the barrel line - good observation. I'll try to change the color of her mask, so it stands out.

Yes, Ruth, you should check it out. Not only great murals, but great food! |

Mary Ann, firstly, you've really captured the decisive moment with the interaction between the deer. Secondly, I agree with LouAnn that the exposure initially looks too dark.Ina a competetion ajudge might be inclined to see this as underexposed rather than seeing your intent to create atmosphere. I'm curious if one of the blending modes in Photoshop could help. |

I like the way you framed this image. I think this could work equally well in a vertical orientation, cropping a little to the right of the Jefferson Memorial. Just a thought. Great image though. |

Thank you, Ruth. I agree, the model was very helpful. If you ever come to San Francisco, you should visit Balmy Lane, which has so many murals in which to stage photos. |

I like Oliver's square idea, as it helps focus the eye on the boat more.Good framing, Ruth. |

Thnak you, LouAnn. Good obeservation about the distortion - I didn't notice it. I'm wondering if the road was starting to climb, but I'n not sure. Nontheless, I think it needs to be fixed. Can you please upload your edited version? Thanks so much. |

Michael,
I like how you have a fairly tight frame to exphasize the heron, which pops out at you. The details are nice and sharp. The only thing I might add is perhaps make the background tree branches a little more out-of-focus in post, as they are just a bit busy. Maybe a mask with gausian blur. |

A square would work well, I think. |

LuAnn, you've really enhanced the tulip's color in a tasteful way. Your background succeeds in making the subject stand out and the leaf does indeed come across as the focal point. Nice job! Just a thought - perhaps crop a tad from the top of the image? |

Thanks, Mark. I agree that a tighter crop will work best. The lovely feline is Luna, my photogenic one-year old. Cheers. |

This is a refreshing graphical image which makes you want to drink the contents. It would make a wine bottle cover. |

This image reminds me of The Fauves, which are my favorite artist group. Lots of bold, fiery colors. I enjoy the energy in this photo. I feel that it's much improved over the orginal. |

I love the magical feel of this image. I can imagine strange creatures springing out of the woods. You've achieved excellent framing. Do you recommend Topaz Studio? |

This is a stunning image. I especially like the vibrant colors, contrast and shadows. The ripples in the water lead the eye towards the swan. The red ripple seems to speak to the swan's beak. Nice job, Mike. |

That's a great idea. I'll give it a go.I added a blening mode in Photoshop, which created the brightness around the cat. I'll try masking the backgound area and brighten it to see how it looks. Good ideas. Thanks. |
