60 Jul 22 Comment Neat shot. I think that it really captures the splendor of the area and I especially like that poor little tree all alone on that island.

I would remove the trees on the lower right, as well as the beach. I think it pulls you away from the island, which is the subject (at least I think it's the subject).

I realize that some people don't like this, but could you increase the contrast in the sky? The clouds already reflect on the ice and I would make them look a little darker and more ominous. Make you feel even worse for the poor little tree.

60 Jul 22 Comment Great shot. I am generally afraid of architectural photos and I think that this photo encourages me to give it a try. I think that the similar colors between the building and the sky really draw you in and I love the sharp angles.

I agree that there is a bit of noise, especially in the sky and I would probably remove it, but that is a personal preference. With that iso, you probably added the noise at some point of the processing (maybe by using the strong contrast in the tone curve section of LrC?)

I also would remove the tree and it I would love to see that horizontal zigzag line along the bottom stay in the frame the entire way across

60 Jul 22 Comment Looks like an interesting place. I agree that the lighting is good. I probably would remove the tree at the upper right hand corner of the frame and clean up that border a little bit more.

I'm having trouble deciding if there is a plank sticking out of the front of the wagon, or that is a stone border for the garden. I would try this picture from a lower vantage point, which would likely separate these two elements. If it's part of the wagon, I would try to include the entire thing.

One idea might be to try this shot at a different height. I find that changing camera height often changes the entire composition.

60 Jul 22 Comment Great shot. The focus on the bike/rider is perfect and the blur definitely gives the impression of movement. I also like how you left a little "space" on the right hand side for the motorcycle to have a place to travel. Here's a tiny issue...Would it have been possible to stand somewhere that made the entire background uniform? I realize that's a small issue. Overall, amazing shot Jul 18th
60 Jul 22 Comment Very striking image. I really like the composition. I only wonder whether it would be more striking with either a more exposed background, or a totally black background. I would probably start with a black background, but that's my bias. Jul 18th
60 Jul 22 Reply Thanks for the comment. You might be right. I will try to reframe the picture and see if that works better. Jul 18th
60 Jul 22 Reply Thanks for the comments. I did remove the black graffiti and you're right, it looks better. I still think it might be a bit too busy. Jul 10th
