Interesting photo. I should try some silhouettes. I like the sunset colors a lot. I'm not sure this one works as black and white. |

I love shooting old building like this. I have a big collection myself. The composition is perfect. I edited it and cranked up the clarity and dehaze a bit in Camera RAW. What do you think? |

Nice subject and nice processing. I was wondering, however, if you could shoot it over maybe you could capture the water flowing with a very short exposure or with a flash to freeze the droplets in mid flight. That would be interesting. |

This is a nice shot. I like how you changed the background but it lacks texture. Also, if you look at the tiger's back you can see that some of the blurring or mask blurring has leaked over onto the tiger. The middle of the tiger's back is more out of focus looking than the tiger's rear. |

Your compositing the two images is excellent. I looked closely at the hair of the steam punk guy and it blends well with the background which is where a lot of images like this fall apart. Maybe a little depth blur for the background could add depth but that's minor and about the only thing I can suggest. |

Yes you have made yet another valid version. I like the truck however because it contrast with the old building. |

I didn't use the remove tool, I blended a second photo made on the other side of the stop sign in to make the stop sign vanish.
My laptop computer has the problem you describe. The problem is that it doesn't have enough memory and I can't add more because it's solder into the motherboard. Each upgrade to Photoshop makes these problems worse. The only real solution is to upgrade your hardware. Are you on a PC or a Mac? |

Your version is nice, Thanks. One problem I was dealing with was the front of the truck is so close to the edge. I didn't want to make it closer by rotating and cropping. |

I was playing with my 100-500 lens that day so the field of view was somewhat limited. |

That's really nice. There isn't much I can suggest except maybe to try dodging the stamens and pistils a tiny bit. The background goes with the foreground exceptionally well. |

It's a beautiful image. There isn't much I can suggest to make it better. |

Nice! It's waterfalls season here in Colorado. I edited your image and removed the leaves in the foreground and I adjusted it in Camera Raw a bit then I dodged some of the darker water to make more of it stand out. What do you think? |

This makes a great black and white. I really like the lines. Maybe just a little crop in on both the right and left. I would have really liked having a better sky but I'm guessing it was overcast that day. This would make a great subject for a fisheye lens. |

Brenda did exactly what I would have done. Sure hope Ukraine doesn't blow this up... |

I found what I thought were some problems with this one. First, the land in the background is out of focus but the transition from the land to the sky is sharp.
Second, there are halos around the birds caused by post processing.
Third, parts of the birds have the red channel saturated.
So in my version I broke the image into 3 layers in Photoshop, the birds, sky and land and processed them differently. I removed the birds from the sky layer to keep the birds nice and sharp. I then used the smudge tool to remove the noise and faint pink cast from the sky. Finally I increased the clarity and dehaze on the land. And a few other tricks that helped but not worth discussing. So this is my version, what do you think? |

It's the contrast between the nice shiny looking truck and the dilapidated building.
And yes, BW images look great when there is lots of contrast. I'm not sure that would work with this image however. |

Thanks! The AI removal tool would not have fixed the logo on the truck door. I wanted to create a image that looked totally realistic. |
