26 Nov 17 Comment Good final result for the image, with strong colors but still natural. Not sure about the ridge in the background, although I have to admit that after you mentioned it I keep looking at it. Try to clone the electric poles and the piece of road on the lower right corner. Also, it looks to me that the horizon is a little tilted to the right. Nov 14th
26 Nov 17 Comment Nice image, and congratulations on being used to decorate the bank lobby! Since you are asking for comments on how to improve the final print, I will just concentrate on them. I would keep the image as it is, but I would darken considerably the rocks on the left. I prefer to have something containing the flowing water, rather than getting it too close to the frame. Also, I would darken the sky. For the rest, nothing to change. Nov 14th
26 Nov 17 Comment As was the case last month, I prefer the color version, and I would have saturated it even more. I like the composition with its different geometric forms, but to me they look a little muted in the B&W photo. In particular, you lost the strong green tones of the leaves, which work like an anchor for the whole image. You can try to straighten the wall shifting the bottom a little to the right. Nov 14th
26 Nov 17 Comment It's a funny idea, and it looks quite well executed. The composition is good, and you left enough space on the right for the dolls to fly into the sky. My only comment is the halos around the dolls, which are the shadows of Image 1. They still show when you superimposed the two images and break the natural flow of the clouds. Nov 14th
26 Nov 17 Comment The next time you are in the DC area, let me know (jcartas@hotmail.com) so I can show you around. Back to the photo: the idea is good, but I think that more needs to be done. Too much area is occupied by the trees, so in way they divert the attention from the tombstones. I would have preferred a picture just full of the markers, extending into the horizon without end in sight. Perhaps going down with your camera you can achieve that next time. As Bob pointed out, the horizon looks tilted, exaggerated because the first line of the tombstones is also flowing from top left to right, with a lot of green at the bottom that doesn't add any information.

26 Nov 17 Comment I like the photo as it is, and wouldn't change anything. Even if the post-processing made the image a little unnatural, it is not totally out of what can be expected. On top of that, the contrast of color and forms is what make the picture appealing. It's incredible how you achieved exact separation of the round object from the right and bottom borders. Nov 14th
