16 May 21 Reply The photo showing the ladder is my original before post processing.
I had a problem resizing it which arrived too late for Mohanan to post it in the usual upper right hand corner where originals are usually placed. He was kind enough to place it in the "reply" section so everyone could see it.. I shoot Nature shots so I wanted the bird too appear as though he was in the wilderness. Thanks for your comments

16 May 21 Reply Thanks for the feedback. You are correct, I used a hand help DJI Gimbal so I did not tap the screen. I am going on a shoot Saturday and will use your suggestion. May 27th
16 May 21 Comment WONDERFUL. Your post processing is GREAT. I can't believe you were able to bring out so much realistic colors and textures. Don't change anything. I suggest you enter it in the PSA Pictorial Print monthly competition. May 19th
16 May 21 Comment Great shot with the reflection. Most Nature competitions in the US do not accept cloning of any kind so you cannot remove the distractions in the water. Cropping is very helpful in nature shots. Flipping the image is also important because the bird is moving into the frame. The original has him moving out of the shot. Selections are not permitted, however you can increase or decrease the satisfaction. I prefer the blue water in the original. I think this is a great Nature shot because it shows the bird in its natural environment searching for food. It shows movement and his bill has food in it. Your post processing is excellent.

16 May 21 Comment You have brought a dull image to life. I like that Terry's crop to remove the light above the head. I prefer your crop because when showing animals that it is important to show the environment because it helps tells the story in the life of the animal. The brownish colors show the time if year/ the season. I think this image should do very well in the Botany competition. Good luck May 19th
16 May 21 Comment Beautiful... I have never seen this kind of flower. You have done such a wonderful job in selecting just the right blossom to focus on, I am going to nit-pick by suggesting you might lighten the lower left hand corner of your vignette or add a slight boarder to better define the edge of the framing. Your image is sharp and the tonal range in colors is fantastic. May 19th
16 May 21 Comment You have done a great job improving this blossom. We know lighting is everything, especially with flowers. Shooting small flowers in a limited space and uncontrollable wind conditions takes a lot of skill. By changing the background and your other adjustments you have created a beautiful painting.

16 May 21 Reply Thanks for the input. Using the phone to post process is a sharp learning curve so I have a lot to learn. It's like starting all over again. May 19th
16 May 21 Reply I am now posting my photos taken with my I-Phone 11 Pro Max. Post processing is done on the phone using the edit application so any changes in settings is only done to the edited version. The only change to the original is resizing the pixels for e-mailing. May 19th
