58 Jul 23 Reply Actually I like what you did, I think it worked out quite well. thanks. Jul 21st
58 Jul 23 Comment What struck me was the attention the man was paying to his task, ie the cup of tea. Also to some degree it seems there is a small element of lbeing alone on his part, and the space you gave him with your edit adds to that as well as your final toning. I did try cropping the right side lightening the man, but to me, in the end I lost the story I first saw, and took away from your image. While Isaac's edit helped , I still think the dark vase on the left with the direction of the light on the wall leads the eye to the subject quite well. Jul 11th
58 Jul 23 Comment I like the story in this image and the execution of the final product. Isaac's crop I think improves the over all impression. The detail in the horse and photographer is good. I though of cropping the right side as well but changed my mind as it appears the photographer is either backing away or preparing to as the horse moves forward.Cropping the legs as you did was the first thing I noticed only because that is something I have to work on.

58 Jul 23 Reply Had a look at yours and I love it, in particular the way the boy seems to be running to the bubble. Jul 5th
58 Jul 23 Comment This in my mind is a good representation of the harsh reality of the profession as you described it. The original conveys the story and the harshness a bit better. Your edit still shows the story but it has softened the reality a bit and is well done. I did a mono of it but used your edit as the base as it was easier to create a somewhat soft image. I did not lighten the driver as based on his direction of looking ahead and not at the subject seemed to add a bit to the difficulty of the girl in seeking "employment." cropped the front of the car out of the scene as I thought it did not add to the scene.

58 Jul 23 Comment This is a good action shot . I cropped the image to remove the person on the right and cloned out a couple of what I felt were distractions. The silhouettes of the two observers leads by framing the eye to the young man surfing. Jul 5th

74 Jul 23 Comment A bit late with my comments. I believe this is a vey powerful image as you presented it. The camera position capturing the vastness of the cathedral and the scale provided by the people really add to the image. well done Jul 30th
74 Jul 23 Comment good day: I like the tone of the image, as the tree stands out well and the cropping is in my mind right for the scene. I did try to lighten the overall image a bit and get some more detail into the scene. that did change the overall impression to some degree. Just something to think about. I use DXO a lot as it is easier to use when Arther ( as in arthritis ) decided to help my hand. Jul 23rd
74 Jul 23 Reply thank you. I agree with taking the post out as well as Don's comment and edit to me was an improvement

74 Jul 23 Comment This image in my mind needs no changes it is well done. Jul 11th
74 Jul 23 Comment In looking at this image and the original I prefer the original as the pastel effect seems to soften the scene and make it more inviting. The image is a good image. In your edit I feel you have lost some of the detail in the hills behind the lakeshore and the highlights take away from the overall image. I did try to bring up some of the detail in the mono background but did not achieve the soft inviting effect you achieved, resulting in a harsher less inviting scene. I have attached my edit which will show a totally different story. I did the edit off the original. Jul 11th
74 Jul 23 Reply Wish I had of taken out the pole, thanks

74 Jul 23 Comment Hi Trevor, I like the image as presented and believe it would stand up well as done. I did one edit just for the purpose of the environemnrt. I lightened the scene up in nic as I think due to the skylights it would be brighter and it makes a more cheerful story in my mind. Your picture is well done as is your explanation of the story. Jul 11th
74 Jul 23 Reply Had a look on a larger screen , at home, and your edits did make an improvement thanks Jul 5th
74 Jul 23 Comment Hi Melissa: The sky was not an add in but the halo on the stepple likely was due to some oversharpening in that area. Jul 2nd
