Thank you for your feedback. I am actually working on learning exposure bracketing. I feel that is the next step for me to progress with my photography. I do see what you mean about the crop. |

Thank you Barbara for your comment. I do understand what you're saying about the original and balance. I cropped it the way I did because I was using the rule of thirds placing Mount Hood on the left 1/3 line and intersection. But looking at the original after you made your comment I do see what you mean about the balance. I guess rules can be broken and there's no reason why Mt Hood couldn't be in the center specially with the trees balanced on the sides. Maybe it comes down to personal preference? |

Wow, that must have been an amazing site to see in person. To be honest if you hadn't of said it was a crater I wouldn't have known what I was looking at. Filling the frame must give it a completely different look than if you had zoomed out or back up to include sky and possibly some foreground. As you say those were the natural colors I don't know that I would have processed it any differently. An amazing image. |

I like the vibrant colors in this photo. I like the contrast of the vibrant colors with the dark clouds. Then there is blue sky peaking through those grey clouds that matches the blue storefront and a couple cars. And there are the red cars opposite of the red building. For me these things balance the photo nicely. I can hear a driver yelling, "Get out of the road"! I agree with Larry that it feels like I'm right in the middle of traffic. The light ray doesn't bother me. But I am still training my eyes to photography. I do think it is not needed since there is a lot to look at. A fun photo! |

Very nice noir photo. I like how the tone of the smoothed water is similar to the tone of the sky and the vignetting balanced the photo well. This image feels like one I'd see in a museum. It feels timeless in monotone. I really appreciate the editing time you put into this. |

For me this looks a bit abstract. I see the tapestry effect that Larry mentions. It is well balanced in the colors…more blue at the bottom anchors it nicely. Did the original appear this blue and vibrant? Either way I'd like to see the original if you don't mind. I love editing and can appreciate the skill it takes to create subtle effective edits as well as creative license to a create something different with a feeling one wants to convey. |

Without light there would be no image. You used the light well here and with your editing skills made a nice image. I like the layers. I see layers in the rocks, and leaves as well as layers between the high and low lights…if that makes sense. Like you said it's too bad you lost some detail when resizing. I wonder if there is a way to get around that? |

Very good use of long exposure to create a beautiful ethereal image. This proves being patient does pay off! You captured a stunning light show that is well composed with the leading lines from top to bottom pulling my eye in and giving it lots of depth. A relaxing image to view on a wall. |

Thank you Michael for your comments. I do see what you mean about the color differences between the sky and reflections on the river. I will keep that in mind in future edits! Regarding the trees and the composition I do think I could have composed this shot better maybe by stepping to the left...? In the original you'll see another tree next to the one on the left. I cropped that out probably causing the crowded feeling you describe. But if I had moved to the left maybe I could have framed my shot with just the two trees and have better balance. For some reason, a lot of times, I forget to move my feet when I'm shooting something in order to try different perspectives and compositions. I will work on this. |

Thank you Larry. I see what you mean about the tree on the right. I thought I needed Mt Hood on the left 1/3rd line and intersection. But maybe if I had stepped to the left, cutting out the far tree on the right it, would have simplified the composition giving it better balance. |
